Life with a child with allergies
Kate and I just love the Date Squares at Sorelle, one of our favourite allergy-safe restaurants in Toronto. We decided to try to make our own at home and the results were FABULOUS! This is one of those things you may never have thought of making yourself but they’re truly […]
I’m in love with making scones! So easy and so delicious. A yummy treat for a weekend breakfast or brunch…so delicious with lemon and cranberries or blueberries!
These muffins are the berry bomb! Sooo moist and sweet and delicious with just a hint of cranberry tartness!
Making your own chocolates is oh so easy and FUN! For this batch you may be surprised to see that I’m using nuts (pistachios)! This is because Kate is actually starting to eat small doses of nuts as part of her food allergy treatments through The Southern California Food Allergy […]
Perfect for a road trip… ski weekend, cottage, etc.! I love to make a batch of fresh muffins to bring along for the road! I prefer chocolate chunks to chips because well more chocolate!!! 😋🍫🍌 ***This recipe includes gluten and eggs but can easily be made gluten-free, egg-free and vegan […]
I absolutely love Morning Glory Muffins and was craving carrot and zucchini baked goods of some sort so I came up with these and we love them! ***This recipe includes gluten and eggs but can easily be made gluten-free, egg-free and vegan – see gluten and egg substitution options in […]
These are Kate’s other favourite Christmas cookie recipe! (See my Chocolate Peppermint Patties Recipe for her first favourite!). These are delicious and surprisingly easy to make despite looking pretty fancy if I do say so myself! ***This recipe includes gluten, dairy, and eggs but can easily be made gluten-free, egg-free […]
I made this for the first time and wasn’t sure how it was going to taste and if my non-allergic kids were going to like it … well they loved it and everyone was asking for seconds and more the next night! So it’s safe to say it was a […]
My allergy girl celebrated her 1st birthday not with the typical Chocolate Cake and accompanying adorable messy-faced photos that most do… she had strawberry-rhubarb pie. We just didn’t know at that time how to give a kid with dairy, egg and nut allergies a proper birthday cake! Kate HATES strawberries!!! […]
All I can say is… THANK GOD for this cake recipe! My friend Wendy shared this recipe with me when Kate was very young. Her husband has dairy and nut allergies and she was my saviour passing this recipe on to me. She calls it “Whacky Cake”. It’s also egg […]
This is a family favourite and is requested by my parents and brother for every family occasion. It is soooooo good! Especially warm. I recommend baking two!!! Bon Appetit!
These are Kate’s absolute favourite treat! I only make them at Christmas time in our house so that she can be so excited for them every year! She waits all year for them! Enjoy!
I made these for Easter and hate to admit that I ATE MOST OF THEM! Oh my goodness these are delicious!!! Perhaps you will be able to show more restraint than me…but I doubt it! They are THAT good! This recipe is dairy-free, peanut and tree-nut free and gluten free. […]
