This recipe requires gluten free rolled oats. Oats are actually gluten free themselves, but it is during processing that they can become contaminated with other gluten containing grains. Make sure the rolled oats you buy specify that they are gluten free and processed in a dedicated gluten free facility. You’ll be able to buy these rolled oats from most health food stores. If you’re not able to find these then replace the rolled oats with some chopped almonds.
