Welcome back to another week of Allergy Free Wednesdays! A collection of yumminess that is aimed at making it easier for you to create healthy, allergy free foods for you and your family. 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. (There was an entry in a previous AFW of a cake that looked incredible, but used 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, eachhostess 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 .
Wondering What You Can Link Up on Allergy Free Wednesday?
My Favorites from Last Week (with substitution ideas)~
Fudgy Sweet Potato Truffles from Eat, Recycle, Repeat
I can’t wait to try these and featured them on my Facebook page recently. I’d probably use carob powder though to avoid the caffeine. :)
Homemade Chocolate Sprinkles from Penniless Parenting
What fun!! I’ll be trying these with a candida-friendly sweetener like xylitol and probably carob to avoid caffeine!
and finally,
Sugar-Free Sugar Cookies (Grain-Free) from Real Food Forager
I’d be subbing in my Homemade Egg Replacer and most likely coconut oil and a candida friendly sweetener like xylitol.
and Readers’ Favorites
GAPS Pizza Crust from Gutsy
I’d be trying this with my Egg Replacer or a flax gel.
GAPS Lemon Bars by Gutsy
I’d try these without eggs using my Egg Replacer but I’m thinking they’ll be a little flat and for sure not yellow.
and Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites (Grain-Free, Vegan, and SF) from Allergy-Free Alaska
I’d be using my Homemade Chocolate /Carob Chips and a candida-friendly sweetener. Yum!
I can’t wait to see what you all have this week!
Thanks for hosting! Today I shared Nut Butter Waffles and Yogurt Popsicles/Smoothies.
Have a great week!

Love the idea of using carob powder! I’ve heard that dried fruit, crushed to a powder in the food processor, works well too.
Do you mean for the chocolate? I can’t eat dried fruit much due to candida but I can handle a little cocoa
