Vegan Gluten-free Baked Chocolate Oats

Vegan Gluten-free Baked Chocolate Oats

A delicious breakfast that tastes like a dessert! This vegan gluten-free baked chocolate oats recipe is perfect to enjoy on a chilled cold weekend day. * This post is sponsored by FREEE* I'm a huge fan of oats for breakfast in general, but during the colder months, nothing beats a bowl of baked warm oats straight out of the oven! Oats are a great source of fibre, vitamins (such as B vitamins), and minerals (like manganese, phosphorus, and magnesium). Baking them into a dish can help you make the most of these nutrients. They're also a complex carbohydrate, which means they release energy slowly + will help regulate your blood sugar levels. This will help to keep you full and [...]

Mocha Buckwheat Pudding (Vegan | GF | High Protein)

Mocha Buckwheat Pudding (Vegan | GF | High Protein)

Delicious, super smooth and chocolaty - this mocha buckwheat pudding can be enjoyed for breakfast, as a snack or a healthy dessert! Breakfast is my most favourite meal of the day by far! I've said it before and I'll say it again, if I could I would eat breakfast foods for breakfast, lunch AND dinner. I wake up looking forward to it, so I wanted to share with you my current favourite breakfast that's easy to make, balanced and tastes so good. A lot of people seem to struggle with breakfast ideas, especially breakfasts that are healthy with good amounts of protein, fibre and healthy fats. I recently rediscovered buckwheat pudding, which I hadn't had since making this blueberry buckwheat pudding. It's [...]

Vegan Baklava Porridge

Vegan Baklava Porridge

A creamy porridge recipe that tastes like a dessert! This vegan baklava porridge is my favourite porridge recipe of all time. Getting out of bed in the mornings when it's cold and dark is a challenge. What helps me is knowing I'm going to eat something delicious for breakfast. A bowl of warming porridge. I often say that eating soup is like giving your belly a big warm hug. I also think that porridge is the breakfast equivalent to soup. Nourishing, delicious and so cosy. If you've never had the pleasure of trying baklava before and you're wondering what it is - it's a Middle Eastern dessert made with a sweet flakey pastry, nuts and lots of syrup or honey. [...]

Peanut Butter Protein Breakfast Pudding

Peanut Butter Protein Breakfast Pudding

*This post is sponsored by Bulk Powders* Silky, smooth and satisfying breakfast with added protein. This Peanut Butter protein breakfast pudding tastes more like a dessert, but it's packed with fibre, healthy fats and protein. I love adding protein to my breakfast as it prevents sugar slumps. I used to get the worst sugar crashes. That jittery feeling a couple of hours after breakfast that leaves me feeling irritable, on edge and unable to concentrate. I still get those crashes if I don't eat a well balanced breakfast with protein and fat. Simple carb rich breakfasts low in fat and protein just don't suit me well at all! And so far what I've seen in the clinics I've observed as well [...]

Buckwheat ‘Rice’ Pudding

Buckwheat ‘Rice’ Pudding

This buckwheat 'rice' pudding is a healthier take on the original rice pudding. You can enjoy it as a hearty breakfast, lighter dessert or even as a snack. Now that the weather is getting colder, we're all craving warming and comforting foods. Warming bowls like this buckwheat pudding is just what I need to get me out of bed on a cold, dark morning. Spiced with cinnamon, cardamom and ginger making it perfect for autumn and winter months. I used light coconut milk and oat milk to make it lighter since I like eating it for breakfast. You can use full fat coconut milk if you want a creamier, richer texture. You can top it with whatever you fancy, but [...]

Breakfast Berry Crumble

Breakfast Berry Crumble

Breakfast Berry Crumble Dessert for breakfast? Yes please! This breakfast berry crumble is bursting with blueberry and raspberry goodness and topped with the most scrumptious crumble topping! A few weeks ago I posted a recipe for this raspberry almond baked oats and it was received so well. I guess you all love berries and oats just as much as I do :D I thought I would make another breakfast recipe with berries. Especially seeing that the weather isn't getting any warmer in the UK and we still need all the comfort we can get first thing in the morning before kickstarting our day. Although the word 'breakfast' is in the title, there is no reason why you can't enjoy this breakfast berry crumble any time [...]

Raspberry Almond Baked Oats

Raspberry Almond Baked Oats

Raspberry Almond Baked Oats Happy New Year! Hope you enjoyed the holidays. I definitely needed to take a couple of days out to recover. 2018 was intense for me, especially the last two months. But overall it's been good to me and for that I'm thankful. Like many others around this time of year, I let myself go and ate whatever I wanted! Lots of chocolate, gluten and even some dairy. It's really hard staying dairy and gluten-free around the holidays with all the festive celebrations and family get togethers. I used to be more strict with what I ate at Christmas and New Year's gatherings. It was stressful and uncomfortable being the only odd one out refusing to eat [...]

Blueberry Nectarine Baked Porridge

Blueberry Nectarine Baked Porridge

Blueberry Nectarine Baked Porridge If you're looking for new and fun breakfast ideas that you can prepare in advance and enjoy fuss free on a busy morning, then you need to try this blueberry nectarine baked porridge recipe! Now that the weather is finally getting colder, my breakfasts are now changing from frozen smoothie bowls to porridge and my new favourite, baked porridge! Or baked oatmeal as it's known in other parts of the world. I'm finding myself craving warm breakfasts more and more. And I know once the UK winter kicks in, I'll say goodbye to my smoothie bowls for good (well, until next spring!), as I welcome bowls of comforting, stodgy oats. One of the things I really miss about winter [...]
