Why it works

  • Celiac disease: A gluten-free flour blend with xanthan gum keeps the crumb tender and springy.
  • Milk allergy: Coconut oil does the enriching here, with dairy-free chocolate chips for the melty bits.

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.
