Welcome back to another week of Allergy Free Wednesdays!
A week of yumminess that is aimed at making it easier for you to create healthy, allergy free foods for you and your family.
As I mentioned, this past week, there is no “clear rule” against including processed ingredients in your submission (but we hope you are moving in that direction
). So…occasionally you will find some “whole foodie undesirables” in the entries.
What to do if you see processed foods and don’t want them?:
- White or brown sugar? Sub in sucanat, or honey or an acceptable sugar free sweetener. Get help subbing in my post on Substituting Sweeteners in Baking and Cooking
- Chocolate Chips? Sub in my Homemade Chocolate / Carob Chips (new & improved version coming soon!)
- Others? Don’t think you’ll find many, but ask away if need be. (I see an entry this week for a cake that looks incredible but uses PB cups – I have a great healthy sub for that – Healthy “Almost Reese’s!“
So—-welcome to Allergy-Free Wednesdays (AFW). AFW is a weekly blog hop where folks can share their allergy-free cuisine, gain knowledge about allergy-related topics/issues, and connect with others living or caring for someone with food allergies.
Your weekly submissions will be shared on 7 blogs! Additionally, each hostess will feature a favorite recipe(s) from the week before. Please visit each blog to see their features! Your hostesses are:
- Tessa @ Tessa the Domestic Diva
- Laura @ Gluten Free Pantry
- Nancy @ Real Food Allergy Free
- Amber @ The Tasty Alternative
- Michelle @ The Willing Cook,
- Janelle @ Gluten Freely Frugal
- and–Me
.

Rules & Guidelines
*In order for your recipe to be featured, your post must contain a back link to our blog hop.
Here goes!
Readers Favorites from Last Week!
Peanut Butter Crispie Cookies from Sensitive and Centsible
I’d use Crisp Brown Rice for an occasional treat, and almond butter for the peanut butter.
Allergy Free Oatmeal Cookies from Dandelions on the Wall
For you sugar free folks, try yacon or xylitol. See Substituting Sweeteners for Cooking and Baking.
I think my Homemade Chocolate / Carob Chips would be great in these!
GF Strawberry Cobbler from Organized Chaos
(I think any berries could work with this. And use as healthy of a sweetener as you can.
Now I need to work on a GF version of Bisquick
!)
And My Favorite:
Oatmeal Free Oatmeal Cookies from The Healthy Beehive
Even GF Oats can bother some folks.
Like with my Baked Oatmeal Cake (super yummy, I might add), often soaking can help, but this blogger found an oat free option!
I can’t wait to see what goodness you all have to share!



















This week I’m sharing my secret to crispy, browned, beautiful, homemade hash browns! Enjoy

Ahh thank you so much! And thank you for your comment on buckwheat, I may have to try that, as I love buckwheat! I can’t wait to check out some of these other posts!

You are so welcome!!! So glad to meet you, Jane! Hope to see you around again!
I just discovered you through Diet, Dessert and Dogs. I’m adding you to my regular rotation. I’m not much of a foodie, just a mom trying to feed myself and daughters safely. I mostly write about what works for me and what I learn and discover as a non-cook forced into the kitchen by food sensitivities. Thanks for hosting such a great Linky!

Thanks for stopping by, Melle! I am glad to meet you! I hope to see you around again – what are your sensitivities? We have life threatening food allergies here so perhaps I can help.
It’s not home made, but Pamela’s GF Pancake Mix works exactly like Bisquick (equal substitutions) in every recipe that I’ve tried.
Thanks, Chara! Can’t use it (son is allergic to dairy), but nice tip!
ohp! yay! I was out of the country when this happened and missed it until now… delightful to see my oatmeal cookies featured up there this week! <3

Christina, I just love your recipes. Keep in touch, OK?
But of course, and, well, thanks! By the way, I love to collaborate on things and work on “projects,” so if you’re ever in need of an additional participant, I’m your girl! As an extra side note, I can’t WAIT to try your recipe for carob chips! This could be a serious money-saver.

Great! I’ll be in touch — and the chips…a revised recipe is coming soon. If weather’s warm where you are, try cocoa butter instead
