When did you all start cooking with your kiddos? This is the first recipe we’ve somewhat co-created with our then six year old. For Christmas he asked for a mini-waffle maker… anything that empowers our kiddos to love food (opposed to being afraid given their allergies) I say yes to… dairy, egg and nut-free these cinnamon waffles are a new staple in our home. Here’s the recipe, give it a go and tag us in your creation!  Cinnamon Waffle (dairy, egg and nut-free) Print Cinnamon Waffle (Dairy, Egg and Nut-Free) Course Breakfast Keyword breakfast, dairy free, egg free, waffles Prep Time 1 ..read more

“Can I have your cupcakes instead,” asked me BFF at her son’s bday party. Like many allergy moms, I travel with cupcakes, cookies and snacks to parties. Yesterday, I didn’t feel like making traditional cupcakes, so transformed our banana bread recipe into this dreamy treat. Topped it off with some vegan cream cheese frosting and a sprinkle of cocoa powder, for a little extra flair as well. This recipe is dairy, egg and nut-free and stays good refrigerated in well-sealed container for 3 days. Leave us a message in your comments and share a pic with us on @from.scratch.with.love.cooking!

“Eat Your Veggies!” proclaims the T-shirt Adam got me for Christmas two years ago. And, while I bake A LOT, I stand by that statement. Veggies are my jam and I desperately try to make them our kids’ jam too. Rhea loves them while Emerson takes some work. I dreamt up this magical meatballs recipe simply to hide the veggies, but was blown away by the sweet and savory taste. Perfect over any type of pasta, we top them with Rao’s Sensitive Marinara Sauce (yay, no garlic!). I hope you like them as much as well do!

We pride ourselves on creating recipes that are free from many of the top allergens, but also ones that feature ingredients that most families have on-hand. So many of the crepe recipes we’ve tried ask for ingredients I would never have in our pantry – like safflower oil or flaxseeds – so we developed our own with simple ingredients.  What was supposed to be an early Friday breakfast turned into a lunch as I spent all morning perfecting this recipe with my little taste testers – Emerson and Rhea – who were so wonderfully patient as we mastered this treat.  Print Sweet Dairy Free C ..read more

Travel and cooking shows can, at times, bring a tear to my eye. They get me wondering – will our kids, who have many food allergies, be able to travel the world? Will they enjoy gelato in Italy? Pierogi in Poland with their family? Croissants in France? Feijoada in Brazil? Will they travel around the world trying new foods, meeting people and learning about new cultures? God, I hope they do. But until they do grow out of their allergies (because I am manifesting that) or until there’s a cure. Now you can see why I sometimes tear up watching these shows.  However, like many allergy parent ..read more

We do the majority of our recipe testing, baking and photographing on the weekends. And as a result, I tend to multi-task. Just like in this rare behind the scenes photo taken by my dad, @bogdanjanczura, where I’m part food photographer, part Wonder Woman. Rhea wanted to play super heroes and this was the only way I could get a few snaps in. Speaking of multi-tasking, I’m gettin quite tired of it. I used to be so proud of multi-tasking and now, meh, I’d rather give it my all. Anyone else feeling this way? Anyhoo….let’s talk brownies. And let me tell you, these are sensational.
