Nuts are a common allergen. Nuts are also high in oxalates and salicylates/phenols, so many people avoid nuts. 

I have many clients with nut allergies and intolerances, so I have created recipes to help. Be sure to read all of the instructions before beginning in case diet-compliant substitutions are described in the introduction. And confirm the ingredients used in place of nuts are tolerated. For example, our nut-free recipes may include coconut, which are not technically a nut, but a problem for some.
