Why it works
- Celiac disease: The crumble uses a gluten-free flour blend over the sweet potatoes, so no wheat flour anywhere.
- Dairy-free: Olive oil alone makes the mash silky — no butter or milk in the dish.
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.
