Allergy-Friendly Recipes for the Holidays

Hosting over the holidays can often be a challenge, especially if you have to take into consideration various food intolerances and allergies. But it doesn’t have to be! Check out our selection of delicious recipes that are egg free, dairy and/or lactose free, nut free and gluten free. Bonus: the whole family is sure to enjoy them!

Breakfast/brunch

If you’re entertaining over breakfast or brunch this holiday season, you don’t have to agonize over what to serve your guests! If you veer to the savoury side, there’s always our egg- and dairy-free scrambled tofu, which isn’t soy friendly, however. But the holidays are all about stacks of waffles and pancakes, so be sure to try these sweet and tasty recipes.

Edible gifts

Whipping up handmade gifts is a great way to show loved ones your appreciation. But if you have someone on your list with a food allergy, give them one of these two treats this year. As they safely bite into them, they will definitely feel how much you care!

Cookies

If you don’t want anyone at the office cookie swap to be left behind, there are so many ways to enjoy classics like festive gingerbread men and wonderfully inviting molasses cookies… minus the allergens!

Cocktail hour

When serving appetizers and drinks before the main course, you want to make sure you have something for everyone! Irish cream is a holiday staple, and our cashew version is one your vegan and dairy-intolerant friends can partake in. And these cheese puffs are so light and cheesy, no one will miss the gluten.

Main dish

Turkey roast is a popular choice at the dinner table, but it usually includes a stuffing that not everyone can partake in. This dish is free of gluten, dairy and nuts (and served with an allergy-friendly gravy!), so no one will feel excluded. Hosting on short notice? Risotto is a simple yet stylish dish that never disappoints. For a dairy-free twist, try the recipe below.

Desserts

End your feast on a sweet note with these delicious, decadent treats. Our doughnut holes are free of gluten (warning: they do contain almonds) and our sticky buns, made with coconut milk and coconut oil, are free of eggs and dairy.
