Since everyone’s allergies vary in scope and severity, the term “allergy friendly” may mean different things to you. There is not a one size fits all for allergies.
My daughter has anaphylactic food allergies to the following:
- all tree nuts( except almonds)
- peanut
- sesame seeds, including tahini
She is also allergic to:
- poppyseed
- hemp seed
- chia seed
- flax seed
My recipes exclude the above foods and are adapted to fit her needs.
Some of my recipes include suggestions for substituting with top 8 free foods. If I offer a substitution, I will have tested it to make sure it is adaptable for taste, consistency and flavor.
Other than my daughter’s allergens, I cook with an extensive array of whole foods, flours, spices and alternative sweeteners. Occasionally, I stick to the classics and use traditional ingredients such as all purpose flour, butter and sugar. I believe that food should not be limiting even with food allergies.
Allergens can also be found in household and skincare products. If I share allergy friendly products on my blog or on social media, the above ingredients will be excluded.
