Why it works
- Celiac disease: Cornmeal and a gluten-free flour blend give it the classic crumb, baked in a cast-iron skillet.
- Dairy-free: Olive oil and soy milk with a splash of vinegar stand in for buttermilk and butter, no dairy in the pan.
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.
