But who says they shouldn’t get to enjoy a sweet treat now and then, right? So here, let’s talk about some simple, tasty desserts that ain’t got no dairy or nuts in ‘em. These are the kind of recipes anyone can whip up, even if they don’t bake much.

Angel Food Cake
Let’s start with something light and fluffy – the Angel Food Cake. This here cake don’t got no milk or butter in it. Just egg whites, sugar, and flour. You also throw in a pinch of cream of tartar to help the eggs whip up all nice and fluffy. This cake comes out so light, you won’t believe it, but it’s perfect for folks who need to keep things dairy-free. And let me tell you, it’s a real crowd-pleaser.
Fruit Sorbets
Now, for somethin’ easy as pie – sorbets. These frozen treats are just made with fresh fruit and a bit of sugar. Ain’t no dairy, ain’t no nuts, just pure fruity goodness. You can make ‘em with all kinds of fruits, too: strawberries, mangoes, pineapples, or even mix ‘em up for a real fancy flavor. Perfect for coolin’ off on a hot day, and just as nice as any ice cream.
Wine Poached Pears
If you’re lookin’ for somethin’ a bit more special, try wine-poached pears. Now don’t get scared off by the wine; it’s mostly just to add a nice flavor. You cook the pears in red or white wine with a bit of sugar and spices, like cinnamon or cloves. What you get is a soft, tender pear with a warm, sweet flavor. And since pears ain’t got no dairy or nuts, they’re a perfect fit for anyone lookin’ for a safe dessert.
Peach Cobbler
Now, a cobbler is a good ol’ classic, and it’s a smart choice if you’re lookin’ to keep out dairy and nuts. Peach cobbler uses fresh peaches, sugar, a pinch of cinnamon, and a topping made from flour, a bit of oil, and sugar. You can even use oat milk if you want a touch of creaminess. Pop it in the oven, let the peaches bubble up, and you’ve got yourself a dessert that’ll warm any heart.
Apricot Jam Crostata
Here’s another one that’s simple but fancy enough to impress guests – an apricot jam crostata. This is like a tart, but it’s easy to make with just flour, sugar, and oil for the crust. Spread some good apricot jam over it, bake it, and you got yourself a lovely, golden dessert that ain’t got any dairy or nuts. And you can swap out apricot for any kind of jam you like, maybe strawberry or raspberry if that’s more your style.

Nut-Free Vegan Cheesecake
For folks who miss a good cheesecake, I got just the thing – nut-free vegan cheesecake. Most vegan cheesecakes call for nuts like cashews, but this one skips that. Instead, you can use a base made from oats and dates, and the filling is often made with coconut cream, lemon juice, and a bit of vanilla. It sets up all creamy and smooth, and it tastes so good you’ll hardly notice it ain’t made with dairy or nuts.
Chocolate Avocado Mousse
Alright, here’s a quick one if you’re lookin’ for chocolate – chocolate avocado mousse. Now, don’t let the avocado scare you off. Once you mash it up and mix it with cocoa powder and a bit of sweetener, you get a rich, creamy chocolate dessert that’s got no dairy or nuts in it. And avocados give it a smooth texture you’ll love, without needing any cream or milk.
Oatmeal Cookies
Last but not least, how about some oatmeal cookies? They’re simple, chewy, and a perfect dairy- and nut-free treat. Use oats, a bit of oil, and brown sugar, and you can add raisins or chocolate chips if you like. These cookies are easy to whip up and they’re good for snackin’ or sharing with friends. No fancy ingredients, just good ol’ oatmeal flavor.
So, next time you’re lookin’ to make a dessert that’s friendly for folks who don’t eat dairy or nuts, give one of these a try. They’re simple, tasty, and sure to please just about anyone – even if they got no special diet needs at all!
