45 Allergy Friendly Dessert Recipes means you always have options for a sweet treat whenever the craving strikes!

I don’t personally have any experience with food allergies in my own home, but we know lots of people who do. And even more people who are trying to better their health by eliminating certain foods from their diets! I can’t imagine life without sweets and treats, so I compiled 45 Allergy-Friendly Dessert Recipes for those of you living with a restricted diet.

You’ll find a variety of recipes tailored to different dietary needs. Many of them are free of the Top 8 food allergens, and some of them are simply gluten-free or dairy-free. But I found that almost all of them appear to be easy to adjust to your specific dietary needs, and nearly all of the recipes exclusively use ingredients that are easily found in most grocery stores. Enjoy!

Anytime I meet someone with food allergies looking for great recipes, I send them to my good friend Megan at Allergy Awesomeness. Her repository of actually-tastes-good Top 8-Free recipes is unparalleled in the online recipe universe. Definitely bookmark her site if you’re in need of some great allergy-friendly recipes!

But I know sometimes you just need some great grab-and-go options that don’t require any time in the kitchen. So, in addition to the 45 recipes below, I’ve also compiled a handful of Top 8 Allergen Friendly snacks and treats that you can buy on Amazon.

Megan, so glad to have found you. We have a toddler who has allergy to milk, soy, egg, ,peanut, treenut, and sesame and I’m always looking for recipes since I’m new to this allergy friendly cooking. Coconut Milk Yogurt and Coconut Oil have quickly become my best friends in the kitchen. I recently posted an allergen friendly blue banana muffin recipe, I hope you’ll check it out. http://foodyschmoody.blogspot.com/2013/07/coconut-oil-blue-banana-muffins.html

Thank you so much for this Megan!!! I have multiple food sensitivities & 1 severe allergy, and that makes it difficult (& expensive) to bake what I want. This is exactly what I need 🙂

This is amazing! So many gluten-free and dairy-free options, I love it.
Ashton, your dairy-free Starbucks frap copy cat has become a go-to recipe in our household. My husband loves it! I’ll often make it for us to sip while we watch tv or play games in the evening after we put our little girl to bed. A swirl of your homemade chocolate syrup makes it perfect.
Your frozen hot chocolate is on my to make list too. 🙂
