And following on from the May's monthly motivation post … Continue reading Vegan Orange Chai Donuts
This recipe proves that vegan food can please anyone and everyone.

With a knowledge of the Italian language, it still makes me chuckle that ‘biscotti’ in every other language refers to this particular type of sweet treat, whereas ‘biscotti’ literally translates to mean ‘biscuits’. The Italian call these type of crunchy biscuit cantuccini which I think sounds much more exotic and enticing, don’t you agree? Nevertheless, … Continue reading Orange and Cranberry Almond Biscotti

It’s not something … Continue reading Vegan Black Bean and Sweet Corn Bread
There are so many plant-based milks available in the shops today and I am so grateful for the huge variety we have.

From sweet hazelnut … Continue reading Hemp and Blueberry Chia Pudding with Caramelised Banana

This makes a great sauce option to drizzle over fresh and fluffy pancakes, to smear onto toasted bread, to stir into a yoghurt and granola bowl or to top and melt into a warm bowl of porridge.

Let us all celebrate The Great British Bake Off 2018! What is a cup-scone I hear you ask? Very simply, it is a hybrid between a cupcake and a scone.

Donuts fit the bill perfectly. Joking aside, I am super proud of these ‘un-bakes’ and I am not afraid to say so. I, … Continue reading Coconut and Cacao Donuts
These are the family favourite. Hands down. I know there’s a plethora of chocolate chip cookies out there, but this one never claims to be a chocolate chip cookie. Instead, it’s more robust, hearty and chunky. It uses chopped chocolate for a rugged cookie, and the oats add that comforting ‘homely’ familiarity to them. You … Continue reading Chocolate Chunk Oat Cookies
My oh my are we in for a treat today! My good friend over at BlueberrySmiles and I have finally gotten around to collaborating on a little guest post for you. I am a huge fan of Celine’s food and her photography too, in fact she inspires me a lot (and she may not even … Continue reading Guest Post: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
What isn’t to love about a flatbread? Sturdy enough to hold your favourite fillings, but not quite as stodgy as some bread. They’re the perfect sandwich alternative. But that’s not it.

This recipe comes with a warning: once you start, you can’t stop. Have you made your own peanut butter?

I am so happy with this recipe for a few reasons: Waste not want not – unless you have a rabbit, people tend to throw the leaves away. … Continue reading Cauliflower Leaf Crisps
Why is this called a smoothie juice? What makes this pear so prickly? To answer question 1 – this drink isn’t quite thick enough to be classed as a full-on smoothie due to a lack of milk or thickener. Yet, it’s thicker than a juice, and no juicer is involved. You see the dilemma? To … Continue reading Prickly Pear Smoothie Juice
