Recipe Review: Blueberry Muffins from Learning to Bake Allergen-Free by Colette Martin

Once I finally decided to take wheat out of my little man’s diet I knew just what I needed to do, head to the book store!.  I sat there for a good twenty minutes flipping through two allergy-free cookbooks, both written by well-known allergy-friendly authors.  So what did I do?  I bought them both.  I have SUCH a hard time making choices…ugh.

I decided to make the blueberry muffins from Learning to Bake Allergen-Free by Colette Martin and they did not dissapoint.  I recently had the pleasure of meeting Colette at the Food Allergy Bloggers Conference and was able to tell her in person how much I love this blueberry muffin recipe.  🙂 She is a very kind person and was eager to hear what I thought.  Thank you, Colette!

The muffins were moist without being heavy.  The texture was fantastic too!  Most important, my son devoured them!!!  I kept four out and froze the rest in sealing freezer bags.  Using a permanent marker I wrote which recipe the bag contained, the date, and a big Y meaning they were safe for my son to eat.  I LOVE filling my freezer with allergy-free foods.  It’s such a wonderful feeling opening that freezer and seeing all of the freezer bags full of SAFE food for my son.

The first recipe made from Learning to Bake Allergen-Free was a success.  I look forward to trying more with what I’m hoping will be similar results.

Do you have a Kindle?  The Kindle version of this cookbook is only $2.51 or you can buy the paperback from Amazon for $13.85 new.  Personally, I think it’s worth the extra money to have an actual book in my hands.  

Do you have Colette Martin’s Learning to Bake Allergen-Free?  What recipes have you tried?  I’m trying to decide which one to make next!!
