Here is a delicious gluten free cake recipe I got from the Toronto Chapter of the Canadian Celiac Association(if I remember correctly) which is worth the effort in baking.

Cake Ingredients:
- 4 cup butter or margarine
- 2 cup brown sugar
- 2 cup white sugar
- 7 or 8 applies, peeled and cored
- walnuts
- raisins
- juice of one lemon
- 5 eggs separated
- 5 tbsp. sugar
- 1 tsp. Lemon juice
- 4 tbsp. potato starch, sifted
Cake Directions:
- To prepare the apples, melt the margarine and the sugars in the bottom of a deep round pan large enough to hold the apples comfortably.
- Arrange the apples over the sugars.
- Fill the core openings with walnuts and raisins.
- Pour the lemon juice over the apples.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees C and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the apples are tender.
- To prepare the batter: in a large mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar until very light.
- Add the lemon juice and sifted potato starch.
- In a clean bowl, with clean beaters, beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry; carefully fold the beaten egg whites into the egg yolk mixture.
- Pour the batter over the hot apples and bake for an additional 30 minutes.
- Let the cake rest on a cake rack for 10 minutes before turning it out, upside down, onto a large cake plate.
