Is it possible to be allergic to eggs but be able to eat baked goods with eggs? Answer: Yes, in fact this is quite common. Allergists have known for years that people with even severe allergic reactions to eggs were often able to eat eggs in baked goods such as cakes and muffins. The reason for this was not clear until recently. We’ve also known that people with food allergies to the raw foods (such as allergy to fresh fruits) were often able to eat those foods when they were cooked or processed. However, most people don’t go around eating raw eggs, and most egg-allergic people would still have allergic reactions even with a thoroughly cooked scrambled egg. A recent study assessed the ability of people with a known allergy to egg to eat foods containing extensively heated egg, such as in waffles and muffins. The study showed that the majority of egg-allergic people (70%) were able to consume foods containing extensively heat
