Easter Treat Ideas for toddlers and children with food intolerances, allergies and acid reflux.

Easter can be a difficult time when the supermarket shelves are full of Easter eggs and other chocolate treats! I have put together a list of some of my favourite recommendations to make Easter extra special for little ones with dietary restrictions.
Breakfast Idea: (dairy-free, gluten-free, nut-free, reflux-safe)
- Use a bunny, chick or lamb shaped cookie cutter and cut out shapes from bread slice (gluten free where applicable).
- Whisk two eggs, add dessert spoon of Vegan grated cheese or omit the cheese and add mashed banana for a sweeter treat and coat the bread shapes with mixture.
- Gently fry in corn or coconut oil for a few minutes until golden, turning once.
- Decorate to make eyes, nose and mouth etc with whatever your little one likes. This could be chopped olive pieces, grated/chopped carrot, smoked salmon pieces, peas, cucumber pieces or blueberries.
- Optional: Make some ‘grass’ to go on the plate using wilted spinach. You could add gently toasted pine nuts, olives, peas etc.
Sweet treats:
Fruity Bunny Skewers: Cut up some fresh fruit (check my reflux checklist for ones to avoid, to supplement ones in the recipes. Blueberries and bananas would work well!) and put them on skewers with Easter themed marshmallows.
Gluten-free Easter Bunny cupcakes: Either buy simple cupcakes or make them at home, decorate with a KitKat bunny (gluten-free) or NOMO vegan, gluten-free bunny
