Happy Food Allergy Awareness Week!
The second full week of May is Food Allergy Awareness Week to highlight the needs and experiences of 32 million Americans with food allergies. I’ve been a food allegy mom, advocate, and blogger ever since my youngest son was diagnosed in 2006. I am so fortunate to have many food allergy mom and blogger friends and colleagues in the food allergy community! They work hard to make the world a little safer and more inclusive for people with food allergies, which is my inspiration to highlight food allergy bloggers in this roundup of 20 nut-free recipes.
Celebrate Food Allergy Recipe Bloggers
I attended the inaugural Food Allergy Bloggers Conference and was inspired to launch Nut Free Wok 10+ years ago when I realized that people want to make and eat Asian food but needed help to adapt recipes for their food allergies.
For Food Allergy Awareness Week, I want to celebrate the food allergy bloggers that actively share great recipes in a roundup of nut-free and allergy friendly recipes. I would like to see all of us continue to build community and find the resources we need to live life with food allergies well.
Thank you for your continued interest in my blog and my cookbook, Chinese Instant Pot Cookbook. I’m so thankful to be part of your meals and special occasions. It’s an honor and none of us take it lightly and work hard to share our best recipes. I personally know many of the bloggers in this round-up but a few are new to me, which is exciting for all of us to get to know them.
Recipes from Nut Free Food Allergy Recipe Bloggers
If you or someone in your family is mainly allergic to only peanuts and/or tree nuts, then it’s less restrictive to follow someone who has similar allergies.
Nut Free Wok
All of the recipes that I share are peanut- and tree nut-free. Many of Nut Free Wok recipes happen to be dairy-free as well because dairy is not commonly used in Asian cuisine although some of my baked goods use dairy products. My son was allergic to eggs so some of my older baked goods recipes are egg-free but now he needs to keep eggs in his diet. At one point, I have cooked for 30+ allergies so I understand that sometimes we just need to eat what’s safe and include adaptation suggestions when possible.
Christina’s Cucina
Christina is a fellow food allergy mom that has blog about authentic Italian, Scottish, and British recipes. Her blog is not entirely nut-free but she has many nut-free options on her blog. Her daughter shared this fun chai cookie recipe inspired by Taylor Swift’s recipe!
Real Food with Sarah
Sarah’s blog is entirely tree-nut free due to her own tree-nut allergy, with some dairy-free, gluten-free options. I love that she has a background in public health. Pesto is an Italian sauce that it typically made with nuts so this nut-free recipe is particularly helpful.
Recipe This
Samantha is a UK based food blogger who has a nut allergy and she has a nut-free policy on her blog. I am excited to use my airfryer to make this recipe for air-fried chickpeas, which might be a satisfying nut-free alternative to eating nuts.
Nut-Free Recipes from Multiple Food Allergy Bloggers
Each of these bloggers have experiences with multiple food allergies, either personally or as a parent. All of these recipes are nut-free and the blogs may also be free from additional allergens. These blogs are great resources if you are managing additional allergens besides nuts or if you are making food for someone who has a different food allergy from your own.
Allergy Awesomeness
Megan is a mom to four kids, two with multiple food allergies and one with EOE. She’s also the author of An Allergy Mom’s Lifesaving Instant Pot Cookbook: 60 Fast and Flavorful Recipes Free of the Top 8 Allergens. These nut-free cupcakes are also free of other top allergens, which make them inclusive to share at a party.
Allergy Spot
Lisa is a food blogger from Australia with experience managing at least 7 of the top food allergies in addition to other atopic conditions. Pesto is often not only made with nuts, it’s also made with cheese too. This dairy-free and nut-free pesto recipe is a great alternative to traditional pesto recipes.
Everyday Allergen Free
Amanda grew up with multiple food allergies and she has been sharing about her experiences and perspective about life with food allergies. Notably she blogged about her pregnancy in a series of posts.
The Pretty Bee
Kelly Roenicke is the author of the website, The Pretty Bee, where she shares delicious recipes that are free of the top allergens. She is passionate about cooking, baking, and sharing amazing allergy friendly food.
The Scatty Mum
Lauren is a UK based food allergy blogger. Her daughter outgrew multiple food allergies over the last few years but Lauren chooses to continue to share her family’s allergy friendly recipes and resources, many with nut-free, egg-free, dairy-free, and/or gluten-free recipe options. Most of us with a peanut allergy cannot dine at 5 Guys due to concerns about peanut cross-contact. However, this copycat nut-free recipe of their fries might be a great way to enjoy the fries without the allergy risks.
Strength and Sunshine
Rebecca is a gluten free and allergen friendly blogger due to her celiac’s disease and soy allergy. She also has a background in public health. This simple, gluten-free, nut-free recipes will make a great side dish for your meals.
The Urben Life
Jenna’s shares simple and seasonal egg-free and dairy-free recipes due to her own egg allergy and lactose intolerance. Some of her recipes may use nuts, which you can easily adapt as needed. I happen to love overnight oats because they’re a huge timesaver on busy mornings.
Vegetarian Mama
My friend Cindy has an allergy-friendly vegetarian recipe site with lots of air fryer recipes as well. Her children have outgrown most of their food allergies to all peanuts, tree nuts, dairy, gluten, and soy.
Zestfull
My friends Shahla and Kortney each had their own blogs and are the co-founders of Zestfull. Shahla is a mom of children with multiple food allergies and eczema. Kortney has multiple food allergies, asthma, and a history of eczema. They collaborate from their respective cities, Berkeley, CA and Berlin, Germany! Their recipe for nut-free chocolate spread is the ultimate nut-free recipe for chocolate lovers.
Nut Free Wok
This Japanese-style potato salad is made without mayonnaise, which is great for people who are allergic to eggs. This recipe is also free of top 9 allergens so it’s a very inclusive dish to share with friends and family at spring and summer picnics, BBQ, and potluck gatherings and easy to double or triple as needed.
Allergies with Littles
Stephanie Joyce of Allergies with Littles, is a registered dietitian and mom of two, who has been in the child nutrition field for 15 years. She focuses on helping families of young kids with food allergies learn to live and eat well. She shares a curated roundup post of 25 gluten-free, dairy-free cupcakes.
Recipes from Related Food Allergy Bloggers
Sage Alpha Gal
Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) is a little-known, fast-growing, and often misunderstood food allergy to mammalian meats and by-products that is caused by a bite from the lone star tick. Providing tips, tools, and alpha-gal friendly recipes, SageAlphaGal.com is dedicated to helping alpha gals live — and thrive — with AGS.
Low Histamine Eats
On Max’s blog, Low Histamine Eats, you will find a nut-free section. She’s currently in grad school studying nutrition. She has personal experiences with less common medical conditions (such as MCAS) that I have heard about in the food allergy community. I think there’s a lot of helpful information but always consult with your doctor for medical advice.
Recipes from Gluten-Free/Celiac Bloggers
I couldn’t have a round up featuring food allergy bloggers without sharing about some of my favorite gluten-free and Celiac blogs. I asked each of them to share a nut-free recipe, but note that some of their other recipes on their websites might use nuts. Most of the time you can omit the nuts if it’s just topping ingredient or an ingredient that you mix in (for example, chopped nuts).
Fearless Dining
My good friend Sandi is an amazing gluten-free blogger. Some of her recipes have nut-free, egg-free, and dairy-free options. I love panettone, doesn’t her gluten-free and nut-free panetoone recipe look incredible?
Gluten Free DIYers
Nathanelle is a gluten free blogger with a background as a chemistry teacher, which I find very relatable as someone with a science and research background. If you want to understand the food chemistry of gluten free baking you need to check out her vegan, gluten-free, and nut-free recipe for lemon cake!!
The Helpful GF
Sharon writes about her family’s gluten free journey at The Helpful GF due to a close family member who has celiac disease. She is also a registered dietician nutritionist, which I love.
The Heritage Cook
My friend Jane is an accomplished food writing professional and a blogger at The Heritage Cook. She is gluten-free due to an intolerance and an author of two cookbooks. The Gluten Free Instant Pot Cookbook, which I reviewed previously when I shared a recipe for Japanese Beef Curry Recipe. She’s also the author of the Gluten Free Bread Machine Cookbook.
MI Gluten Free Gal
Margaret is a Michigan-based gluten free blogger. I have known her for years and can rely on her for being an evidence based resource and a sincere friend and advocate. I love that this gluten-free blueberry French toast casserole recipe is prepped the night before and baked in the morning.
