4 Vegan Cracker Topping Ideas

 4 Vegan Cracker Topping Ideas * This post is sponsored by Nairn's* Quick, easy and scrumptious snack ideas - these 4 vegan cracker topping ideas are perfect to make as a healthy snack to keep you going in between meals. I'm not going to lie, snacking it probably one of my favourite things to do. It's a way to break up my day and take mental breaks from my busy work/life schedule. When things get a little to hectic, I like to get up from my desk, make a calming cup of tea and put together a quick yummy snack to munch on. It really does help reduce my stress levels, but also ensures my blood sugar levels don't drop [...]

Vegan Chocolate Orange Pancakes

Vegan Chocolate Orange Pancakes Rich and indulgent yet not too sweet or heavy - these vegan chocolate orange pancakes are the perfect Veganuray brunch!    I haven't made pancakes in the longest time! Longer than I would like to admit. I usually only make them on special occasions like as a special treat on someone's birthday or on a weekend if I wake up nice and early, but the truth is pancakes can (and should!) be enjoyed often and so I'm taking it upon myself to increase my pancake intake, because they're too damn delicious not to be enjoyed on a regular basis!  To make the batter super chocolatey with a hint of orange, I'm using Whittard's orange flavoured hot chocolate. It's completely vegan as is [...]

Chocolate Stars Granola

Chocolate Stars Granola * This post is sponsored by FREEE* If you love cereal and are looking for a bit of a change, try this healthier chocolate stars granola that’s vegan, gluten-free and so moreish! I know you love make-ahead of time breakfasts as much as I do. They really are such time savers and take the hassle out of your morning routine. It’s even more convenient when it’s easy enough to take with you to work if you don’t even have time for a sit-down breakfast. Skipping breakfast is not an option for me. If I don’t have a good filling breakfast in the morning it really plays havoc on my appetite later on in the day, especially late [...]

Vegan Sweet Potato Cakes

Vegan Sweet Potato Cakes A delicious side to any meal, these vegan sweet potato cakes are yummy and really easy to make.  Seeing that my mushroom stuffed potato cakes are one of the most popular recipes on my blog, I thought I'd create another potato cake recipe only this time using sweet potatoes. This humble vegetable is so tasty as it is, but when mashing it with other vegetables and spices, shaping it into cakes and frying it in some coconut oil, they taste that much more amazing!  There are two ways of preparing the potatoes in this recipe. You can either boil them until soft, leave to cool and then mash them. Or what I like to do is roast them in the oven with salt, [...]

Chai Chia Pudding

Chai Chia Pudding Another super easy and nourishing breakfast that you can prepare ahead of time. This chai chia pudding is perfect if you're taking part in Veganuary or if you're simply trying to eat healthier this month.  Even though Christmas is over and we're already half way through the first month of the new year, I'm still craving all the warming and comforting spices. I love chai tea, and I had the idea to create a recipe incorporating tea bags into a recipe instead of using whole or ground spices. Why not? I figured chai tea bags already have just the right combination of flavours making it a much easier way to get the perfect chai flavour into a recipe. Chia [...]

Breakfast Fibre Flake Bars

  Breakfast Fibre Flake Bars * This post is sponsored by FREEE* These breakfast fibre flake bars are perfect to enjoy on busy mornings either before you leave the house, or on-the-go. Are you looking for a fun way to liven up your breakfasts? I wanted a change from my usual smoothies and porridge bowls and felt I was stuck in a breakfast rut. Don't get me wrong, I love my porridge and smoothies, but every now and then I do like to change things up a little. A bit of a crunch is what I've been craving recently. Something crispy and satisfying to bite into! Also, I knew January was going to be a busy month after taking so much time out to [...]

Bramley Apple Sweet Potato Sausage Hash

Bramley Apple Sweet Potato Sausage Hash * This post is sponsored by Great British Apples* This is not your average potato hash recipe, this is a sweet potato hash with the addition of delicious tart apple chunks and veggie sausages as a good source of protein. It’s really quick and easy to put together and you can enjoy it for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The leftovers would also make a really nice side dish to other meals too. If you’re not vegan/plant-based you can go ahead and top it with a couple of fried or poached eggs, although the sausages add more than enough protein to make it a filling and substantial meal as it is. You don’t have to [...]

Vegan Gluten-free Blueberry Crumble

Vegan Gluten-free Blueberry Crumble A quick and easy, vegan and gluten blueberry crumble that's guaranteed to warm you up on a cold winter evening! I'm very big on no-bake, chilled desserts. I find them a lot easier to make with less steps and much harder to get wrong. However, when winter kicks in I, like many others, start to crave comforting and warming food, and that applies to desserts too!  I can't think of a dessert more warming and comforting than a crumble ? served warm with a scoop of dairy-free ice cream...can't imagine anything more divine whilst cosied up on the sofa in front of a warm fire - pure joy!  I wanted to create a crumble that's really quick [...]

Vegan & Gluten-free Scones

Vegan & Gluten-free Scones Super easy, fail proof vegan and gluten-free scones that are easy to make and adapt. I was craving a comforting rainy day treat, and the first thing that came to mind was scones. Topped with jam and vegan creme fraiche- heaven! Went down a treat with my cup of cardamom tea ? I used a mixture of gluten-free flour and oat flour, which I made myself by blending plain rolled oats into a fine flour in the food processor. If you're allergic or intolerant to gluten do make sure you use gluten-free oats. Most oats are handled in the same facilities as other gluten containing products, so chances are there will be some gluten contamination.  These scones [...]
