Notes
To make this Minimalist Magic Cake gluten free, use a certified gluten-free boxed cake mix.
Confirm that the canned pie filling is labeled gluten free and does not contain wheat-based thickeners or gluten-containing additives.
Use eggs that have not come into contact with gluten-containing ingredients during preparation.
Grease the pan with a gluten-free cooking spray, butter, or oil.
Use clean mixing bowls, spatulas, whisks, measuring tools, and baking pans to prevent gluten cross-contact.
If baking for someone with celiac disease, avoid shared utensils, shared parchment surfaces, and any cake mix processed in facilities with high gluten cross-contact risk unless certified gluten free.
