Growing up, this gluten-free poppyseed cake was one of the only cakes I enjoyed. I would always look forward to having my step mama Sheila make it for me when I would go visit my birth dad. She knew that I loved it and was so thoughtful to make it (along with her incredible gingerbread men at Christmas time) specifically for me. This little act of kindness made me feel super special.

Now, back when I enjoyed it in their home, it wasn’t gluten-free. I wasn’t diagnosed with celiac disease until I was an adult. It was one of the first recipes I wanted to adapt to meet my new dietary needs. Luckily, my mamma Tana is an incredible baker so she helped me do just that. I was thrilled that it tasted just like the nostalgic dessert I remembered but now it was a gluten-free poppyseed cake. This gluten-free poppyseed cake is so addictive and delicious that everyone will be coming back for more! It is made from scratch and is a dessert that you will treasure for years to come.
