      Can you offer subs to make thus gluten free?

      Hi Shelley — gluten-free subs on this would be pretty straightforward. A gluten-free flour mix (like Bob's Red Mill or other) for the pastry flour; and use quinoa flakes for the topping option — unless you can find guaranteed GF oats. Hope that helps!

      I was wondering if I could substitute walnut oil for the safflower oil?

      Sure, that would be great. It would probably make this more fragrant, too.

      This sounds so yummy. I was wondering if there's a way to make it oil-free. Would something need to be substituted if the oil was left out? Thank you!

      I'm wondering about making it oil free also. could you just skip the oil, or would something else need to be replaced? thanks so much. sounds delicious!!

      Julie and Kathie (and Kathie, sorry for the delayed response) — sure, just stir up the topping without the oil. It may turn out a little less crispy, but it should still be good!
