Please Note
This recipe contains gluten free oats. A small minority of coeliacs - approx 5% - will react to pure gluten free oats. Uncontaminated gluten free pure oats are produced under very rigorous controls and quality inspections from the beginning of production through to finished product. The inclusion of pure oats in the gluten free diet is an issue of ongoing study and investigation. Therefore
any coeliac wishing to consume a diet containing pure oats should receive regular follow-ups at a specialist clinic to ensure tolerance.
