Protein Chocolate Mug Cake (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Protein Chocolate Mug Cake You know those times when you really really crave a slice of chocolate cake (or in my case any kind of chocolatey baked good), but don't have anything remotely like cake in the house and wish that you had. I'm sharing a recipe that will come in handy for exactly those moments!  A chocolate protein mug cake that's super rich and decadent but much healthier than a regular cake. Made with protein powder, ground almonds, cocoa, plant-based milk and almond butter. I also used a little maple syrup for extra sweetness but you can absolutely replace that with more plant-based milk instead to make it lower in sugar.  For me, this is a life saver! Every now [...]

Banana Bread with Creamy Walnut Frosting – Vegan & Gluten-free

Rich and moist banana bread with a smooth and creamy walnut frosting is the perfect afternoon treat. Made with oats, ground walnuts and banana, it’s perfect for breakfast too!  I do love a good slice of cake, but if I had the choice I would always pick a dense slice of banana bread. I love dense cakes and sometimes sponge cakes are just too dry for my liking. They're usually topped with some sort of frosting or come with a layer of jam in the middle to compensate for their dry texture, and the frosting is always sickly sweet and never healthy.  I created this recipe with the help of Flora's new dairy-free walnut spread. The flavour of the walnuts comes through beautifully, making it [...]

Vegan Gluten-free French Fancies

Vegan Gluten-free French Fancies First of all I would like to wish my mum and all the amazing mothers out there a ?HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY? If you live in the UK you will be very familiar with french fancies. They're these cute mini sponge cakes, similar to petit four, with a jam centre and covered in different coloured icing - pink (strawberry), yellow (lemon) and brown (chocolate). I used to find the sponge in french fancies a little dry, which wasn't too bad since the jam and icing added a bit of moisture and complemented the whole thing, but I still prefer my cakes a little more moist, so I wanted to make mine a little denser and not as spongy. [...]

Vegan & Gluten-free Jaffa Cakes

Vegan & Gluten-free Jaffa Cakes Jaffa cakes are one of those treats that I missed the most since I started avoiding dairy and gluten. Once a Jaffa Cake pack was opened, there was no stopping me. I would gobble the lot! They're such a comforting snack, especially with a nice warm cup of tea. What makes them even more special is that all Jaffa Cakes are produced at a McVitie's factory in Stockport, which is not too far away from where I live and around the corner from my parent's house!  I posted a shot of these vegan & gluten-free Jaffa Cakes on my Instagram feed mentioning that I wasn't sure whether they were only available and sold here in the UK. Many of you informed [...]

Vegan Gluten-free Banana Blueberry Bread – Video

Banana Blueberry Bread If I had to choose between a fluffy sponge cake and a dense, moist one, I would always choose the latter - especially if it's banana cake!  I've made a banana bread in the past where I used a mixture of banana and avocado in the dough and it turned out to be one of my most popular blog posts! So I thought it's about time I made another one, a more traditional version without the avocado, but with a little fun twist - a blueberry frosting! Because everyone knows banana and blueberries go exceedingly well together, especially in the form of a cake, cupcakes or muffins.  I created this recipe for Arctic Power Berries using their blueberry powder, [...]
