Thanks for making sure this recipe is WHEAT FREE – which in my world goes together with dairy-free.
Dairy-free- Wheat-free should never be separated. There is no point in one without the other.
Thank you!
I am in the process of making this. I think the oil can be cut in half in the filling and the crust. It sure tastes delicious. Recipe says packed with calcium. I don’t see how it can be from the ingredient list but I think this will be company worthy.
Thank you for letting us now, Darlene – we look forward to hearing how your adjustments worked out. Regarding the calcium: there’s definitely plenty in there. Tofu, for example, is a good source of calcium – as are the dates and nuts. We hope you enjoy!
