BERRY UPSIDE DOWN CAKE (GLUTEN FREE)

Berry Upside Down Cake (Gluten Free) image

An amazing gluten free cake but very sweet. Fantastic served with real whipped cream. Try using a variety of mixed berries or adding frozen rhubarb! If you use frozen strawberries you may want to cut them a little smaller.
