    Dairy free recipes

    I love to bake savoury foods... quiches, muffins. And sweet treats like pancakes etc...but recently have been told to go off dairy for as long as I'm breastfeeding. And soy I went off both for 4 days & when I snuck some soy milk in something, Jovie came out in a big rash... sooo

    Please post some dairy free recipe alternatives for quiche, muffins, pancakes....

    I have been giving Matilda crackers with cheese, cut up vege fingers etc... but I used to make either vege muffins or mini quiches every weekend for the week's snacks and some meals. Now I'm out of what I can prepare early for a healthy snack/lunch.

    Have you tried lactose free milk to see how you go? Or protein free like A2?

    Yep the whole house has been on A2 from the start of December, and soy milk makes her break out when I have a little bit in coffee.... so rice milk is the go... (yuk!) I haven't tried goats milk yet... bit scared too. Basically its a cows milk thing, or so they think and we are having a go.

    Getting sick of zucchini bread atm though

    Thanks Sherie!!!

    No worries Christy. One thing I noticed is it is hard to find recipes that don't use Soy, cause most of them substitute soy for normal milk.

    Due to DH being coeliac we eat a lot of dairy and sugar free foods at home.

    Pecan Nut Muffins

    2 cups pecans
    6 eggs
    1.5 - 2 bananas
    1/3 cup honey
    1 tsp baking soda
    1 tsp vanilla extract

    Blend it all in food processor
    Scoop into greased muffin dish
    Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 mins

    Apple pancakes

    3 apples
    3 eggs
    1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
    butter for frying

    Peel and core apples
    Blend/grate apples in a food processor
    Mix in eggs and cinnamon
    Fry as you would pancakes.

    Every sunday we have banana pancakes which is pretty much the same as the apple ones but with banana.
