Question:
Will someone who has to eat only gluten free matzos be able to fulfill the mitzvah of eating matzah with gluten free oat matzah? Can they make a bracha “al achilas matzah”?
Answer:
According to the standard mesores, whereby oats are one of the five species of cereal, gluten-free matzos can be used for fulfilling the mitzvah.
Some have recently questioned this mesores (in particular Dr. Yehuda Felix), but it remains accepted by Poskim.
Best wishes.
