Denise, I am sure this was a huge life change for you. I really think you are going to learn to love to bake these recipes, and never miss the dairy and eggs. Good luck and send any questions you have my way!

I found out last fall that I was allergic to dairy and eggs. This put a big cramp in my baking since all my recipes included one or both. Thank goodness for your website. I made this and took to our family’s gathering for New Year’s and both kids and adults loved it! The texture reminds me of my mom’s bread pudding she used to make. Since I don’t have nut allergies, I did toss in a cup of chopped walnuts. This is a keeper. Thanks a bunch!

We had a successful first Thanksgiving. I was so happy to make an allergy free dinner for my entire family. I made so many of your recipes (sugar cookies, apple spice coffee cake, cranberry orange muffins, apple and pumpkin pies). All of them made our holiday very special. I got the most compliments for the cranberry orange muffins and pumpkin pie. My Mom came over for brunch and to help me with the stuffing and we all enjoyed some coffee and that fabulous apple spice coffee cake. The dairy free sour cream made the cake so moist that I am going to make your Emerald Isle Coffee Cake for Christmas morning. Thank you so much for helping me through my first Thanksgiving meal.

This looks scrumptious. Like you mentioned I am going to make this for Thanksgiving morning. We are hosting thanksgiving for the very first time this year and I am worried about getting the stuffing right and the big bird in the oven so my Mom is going to come and supervise that part. Now I have something good to serve.

Thanks.

Hi Monica, try a similar amount of silken tofu, drained. I can’t guarantee it will turn out the same, because I haven’t personally tried this version. Let me know how it goes!

This cake looks yummy. Is there something else that can be used instead of the sour cream? I can not use the dairy free because it contains corn, but I would love to try this.
Thanks for sharing all these wonderful creations with us!

Oh this looks yummy! I bet our son would love it for sure and thankfully now he can eat all these ingredients since his Bellyboost probiotic has helped his little tummy to process stuff better. I am glad I am not the only one wondering about the sour cream I will have to check on getting it thanks!!

Hi Julie, Tofutti makes a great dairy free sour cream. I can get it at my local grocery store, and you can definitely get it at Whole Foods. If your local grocer doesn’t carry it, simply ask the manager to stock a small supply. They almost always do this, especially because it has a long shelf life.

I know this has been asked before, but where do you find dairy free sour cream? (And this sounds like a GREAT idea for turkey day brunch!!)
