Gluten Free Pan de Muerto

As part of our familia's Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebrations, we made gluten free Pan de Muerto (the Bread of the Dead)—a pastry specific to the holiday.In traditional Día de los Muertos celebrations, the belief is that loved ones who have passed on will come back for the day to reunite with the living. Pan de Muerto serves as a physical offering to the dead—a form of sustenance for them to enjoy at the end of their journey to visit the living. Symbolic of this belief, the design on top of Pan de Muerto resembles bones, and its round shape represents the cycle of life.
