nut free

In this collection, you will find all of my favourite vegan recipes that are also nut-free (or easily made nut-free!).

Included here are naturally nut-free dishes like this tahini cauliflower with chipotle, these sweet potato cakes, and my mushroom brown rice bake. I’ve also got a few wholesome bakes like my seedy no-knead bread and these chocolate chunk wonder cookies.

Discover even nut-free, vegan recipes in The First Mess Cookbook.
