All nuts or just almonds?I also like hazelnut. Its unusual for somebody to develop a nut allergy late in life I think,could it be medications? :)

What is GFS? You might want to try coconut flour. There's a lady named Maria Emmerich who has some great recipes with coconut flour. Google her name to find her blog.

We need a TLA list.  I'll start it.

TLA = Three letter acromym
GFS = Ground Flax Seed

My son is allergic to treenuts so we use Soy Flour as a replacement. Works great!
