Why it works
- Gluten-free: Certified gluten-free pie crust and plain filling ingredients keep gluten grains out.
- Celiac disease: Certified gluten-free crust and plain ingredients keep hidden gluten out.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
