I have twin granddaughters in kindergarten who were diagnosed with autism last spring. They cannot eat any gluten, dairy, or soy. We are going to visit them on Thursday. This will be our Christmas with them. I would like to take some Christmas treats, there is not anything I make that they can eat. Even chocolate chips have milk fat and soy in them.
Some of you know a lot about food. Can you help me find substitutes so that I could bake them some brownies or cookies or something. I believe it is the cassein in milk that is a problem. I know that I can substitute coconut milk and I can get gluten free flour, but what could I substitute for butter and get the same taste. I checked the margarine at my grocery and they all had soybean oil.
Any advice you could give me would be greatly appreciated. We have no health food store in my small town, so will probably have to wait until we get to Kansas City to get the ingredients. Maybe Grandma can have a baking lesson with them.
What good is a Grandma that doesn't bring goodies for Christmas?
