Notes
Make sure you use GLUTEN FREE flour for this recipe. I used a 1-1 Gluten Free flour that works well with most recipes.Not all Oat Milks are the same! Make sure, if you are making this recipe GLUTEN FREE, you make sure your Oat Milk is labeled GLUTEN FREE. ALDI's version of Oat Milk is NOT Gluten Free.
