I'd love it if you'd share this post:

Baking with gluten free flours is very different that using wheat or whole wheat flours. I love Challah bread but it is very hard to braid a loaf of bread made with gluten flour. This recipe for Honey Challah Bites is a nice way to get the flavor of Challah bread!
