Nut free breakfast cereal

6 replies

DH has suddenly developed a nut allergy (we think), after reacting to something in fruit and fibre. Having eaten it for years without problems. He's got an epi-pen from GP and a referral to allergy clinic for testing. He's since reacted to bran flakes too.

Corn flakes and porridge now seem to be his only breakfast cereal options. Any other ideas for cereal that doesn't have the 'may contain nuts' labelling?

He's not keen on toast and isn't going to start cooking himself breakfast anytime soon so it has to be cereal.

Doves Farm cereal (my goddaughter likes the chocolate stars)
Also, Kingsmill crumpets and pancakes

You could try making him a nut free granola. Most recipes I’ve seen contain nuts but I often leave out or substitute some sunflower or pumpkin seeds for a bit of crunch.

Thank you. I'm trying to avoid anything that involves actually 'making' anything - he gets up for work 2 hours before me and just wants a simple breakfast he can quickly pull together and I don't want any more food prep. than I already have. He's not the slightest bit interested in food prep Wink

Scotch pancakes with banana or blueberries.
Boil and peel eggs night before and store in fridge.
Cocoa pops!

Thank you! We've also been staring at ingredients lists on Ocado - things like Kellogg's sultana bran are nut free, but the own brand equivalent has the nut disclaimer on. There is quite a difference in price...

So far I've ordered Kellogg's sultana bran, Doves Farm fruit and fibre and some crumpets to try!
