Gluten-Free Options at Mama Mila's

Pro tips

• Use a gluten-free flour blend with xanthan gum already included to avoid dense, crumbly crusts in pies.
• For cheesecake, allow extra cooling time (at least 4 hours) before chilling overnight—gluten-free crusts are more fragile when warm.
• Test peanut butter pie filling with a toothpick at the center; it should have minimal jiggle but not be fully set to avoid overbaking.

Substitutions

• All-purpose flour → certified gluten-free flour blend (use xanthan gum if blend lacks it)
• Regular graham cracker crust → gluten-free graham crackers or almond flour base (binds better)

Storage & make-ahead

Both desserts keep refrigerated for 3–4 days; cheesecake freezes well up to 1 month, peanut butter pie up to 2 weeks.

What makes Mama Mila's gluten-free desserts different?

They use a clear dietary restriction key to mark gluten-free items and feature both classic (cheesecake) and unique (peanut butter pie) options with tested gluten-free ingredients.

Can I make these gluten-free desserts at home?

Yes. The video demonstrates techniques for both cheesecake and peanut butter pie using gluten-free substitutes for crusts and standard baking methods for the fillings.

What gluten-free flour works best for the pie crust?

Mama Mila's uses a blend approach; watch the video for their specific ratio, as single gluten-free flours often require binding agents for proper texture.
