I am allergic to tree nuts. This meant I could not eat macarons. I can't even walk into a macaron store, because the almond meal (or flour, whatever they use) permeates the air, and I start to feel the effects of my immune system. I've had people pat me on the back, lamenting my inability to consume nutella, macadamia nuts, almond croissants, and macarons. Well, I refuse to accept this. I may not be able to consume the nuts, but I will look for a way to have macarons - with pumpkin seed flour. Thanks to my lovely sister Lucy for helping me with this recipe!
