Do you have a gluten free recipe. Our family suffers from celiacs disease.

These are delicious and I'm thinking versatile. This morning we used them as toasted English muffins filled with cooked egg, sausage, and cheese for breakfast sandwiches. I can also see them served English crumpet-style toasted with butter on top. So, with the holes on top, I'm also thinking these are probably meant for a glaze, so later today I tried them topped with recipe #401532. I've never had a tea cake, so I'm using my imagination on ways to serve these! Also, not sure what "bread spices" are, so used my Pampered Chef cinnamin plus blend for some spice. Thanks, litldarlin for posting! Made for My 3 Chefs event.
