My 10 yo has had a life long dairy allergy, but this holiday season we are facing a new egg allergy. Discovered it when he had anaphylaxis to a dairy free french toast, then was specific IgE pos. to egg.
He still tolerates baked egg, although last holiday season, he was having some mouth itching to our homemade cookies. This was before he was diagnosed with the egg allergy, and I couldn't figure out what the dairy contamination was.
Anyway, as we face the coming holiday baking season, I am wondering if he will not tolerate the egg in cookies, since they are not baked as long. Has anyone else had this experience?
What are the best egg substitutes for cookies? Although he tolerates most baked egg, I sometimes substitute with applesauce or banana in doughnuts or pancakes with decent results. I also have some egg substitute that I purchased from a vegan store. Any helpful hints would be great! I'm new on the learning curve for egg...
Thanks!
