Vegan No-bake Caramel Bars

A crunchy biscuit layer topped with a simple caramel filling, all dipped in lush dark chocolate - these vegan no-bake caramel bars are my healthier take on a Twix bar!  Hands up if you love Twix bars ??‍♀️ I used to eat them almost everyday during my uni days. You could say I was obsessed! Since I started making my own healthier desserts at home, I decided to try to recreate a classic favourite so that everyone can enjoy them. My version is vegan and gluten-free, so a great options for those who can't eat dairy or gluten.  The more I started to experiment with recipes, the more I found my flavour preferences changed. It's like my taste buds were maturing [...]

3-Ingredient Chocolate Crunch Doughnuts

A yummy crunchy treat that's so easy anyone and everyone can make it! These 3-ingredient chocolate crunch doughnuts are perfect for when you're craving something sweet, but don't feel like baking or making anything too complicated. This recipe is probably the most popular recipe on my blog to date. I think the reason is that they're so easy and only call for 3 ingredients. They're also really easy to adjust - you can add anything to them and you can shape them however you like. I love using doughnuts mould, but you can use any moulds you have on hand, or even use a cake tin and cut them up into bars/squares.  These chocolate crunch doughnuts do remind me of [...]

Vegan Tahini Brownies

So these brownies were kind of an accident. Is it just me or are the best recipes usually the ones that don't go to plan, instead they result in something even better! I was trying to make egg free chocolate cookies, but they didn't turn out exactly the way I planned, so I decided to turn them into brownies instead...and here's the result!

Vegan Gluten-free Butter Cookies

Light, buttery and crumbly cookies dipped in chocolate and decorated with chopped hazelnuts. These vegan gluten-free butter cookies are a must-try! I made these vegan gluten-free butter cookies for Christmas and dipped them in matcha white chocolate and chopped pistachios. I just had to make a dark chocolate version, this time decorated with chopped hazelnuts. I think we can all agree that chocolate + hazelnuts is one of the most delicious flavour combos ever. These cookies are definitely a lot more indulgent than my usual treats. With butter cookies, you really do need to use a lot of butter (hence the name!), and sugar too, so they're not healthy in any shape or form. However, they are gluten-free and vegan, [...]

Chocolate Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies

A super easy treat that's ready in no time - these chocolate peanut butter sandwich cookies are no-bake and so delicious! A smooth 3-ingredient peanut butter filling sandwiched between two rich, no-bake chocolate cookies. What's not to love? I've always thought of chocolate and peanut butter as such a winning combo, but what makes these cookies special is that they're made using healthier ingredients! They're also no-bake and you don't need any fancy equipment to make them. I use oats in a lot of my baking and treats. They've become a staple in my kitchen and for good reason. They're an amazing source of fibre, vitamins and minerals as well as antioxidants. Including them in the diet is linked to [...]

Can' think of a cuter way to show a loved one how much you care. I'm all about balance when it comes to my diet - eating healthy most of the time, but also enjoying an indulgent treat every now and then.

I made the cookie dough using 5 main simple ingredients (one of them may surprise you!): Cooked chickpeasCashew butterMaple SyrupOatsDark chocolate chips Simple, yet create [...]

These bars are perfect anytime of the year, but they're a particularly fitting treat for your loved one(s) this Valentine's Day!

You're only making one Valnetine's Day dessert, so why not make event specific to show your special someone how much they mean to you! I do enjoy making heart shaped [...]

No-bake Chocolate Oat Cookies

No-bake Chocolate Oat Cookies Delicious and satisfying chocolate cookies that are healthier than your average cookie and require no baking. No-bake recipes are my favourite kind of recipes. They're so much quicker to make and a lot easier to master and get right. These no-bake chocolate oat cookies are a great example of that. You mix all the ingredients in a bowl, then shape into cookies and you're done! You do have to wait for them to set in the fridge, but that's the hardest part of the recipe.  This is one of those recipes that you can make when you want need a quick chocolate fix, but you're not in the mood for baking. They're also perfect for those warm summer [...]

Vegan Chocolate Fudge Cake

(AD) I can’t think of anything better than a decadent piece of cake to get me through a long and stressful week. If you’re looking for a yummy, sweet treat that’s completely plant-based, you NEED this vegan chocolate fudge cake! I don’t often eat cake, but when I do it has to be homemade. I’ve always found homemade to be so much more delicious with a better texture. Shop bought cakes can so easily be dry and far too sweet with not much else in terms of flavour. I usually make a cake when I have people coming over, but the restrictions that we all faced over the last year and a half changed all that. All of a sudden [...]
