Chocolate Salted Caramel Cups

Chocolate Salted Caramel Cups

Delicious, decadent and completely plant-based! These chocolate salted caramel cups are so easy to make with only a handful of ingredients! * This post is sponsored by Nature’s Charm* No-bake recipes are my favourite kind of recipes to make, but especially so on a hot day like today. I can’t even think about turning the oven to bake something right now - it's that hot and humid! All you need to make these cups is a bowl, spoon and moulds/muffin pan - that's it! Mix the dough ingredients together, press into the pan then fill the centre with ready made vegan salted caramel sauce. I used Nature's Charm coconut based salted caramel sauce. Because it's so sweet, I made sure not [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here and I’m so sorry for my absence! It’s been a hectic few months moving house, working on lots of side projects and client work and just busy with life in general. I’ve still been active on my Instagram page as it’s always been my main platform and creative outlet where I share all of my recipes. Since Instagram Reels came along late last year, I've started filming and editing A LOT more videos, which take [...]

Vegan Chocolate Caramel Crunch Bars

Vegan Chocolate Caramel Crunch Bars

Delicious crunchy treats that are made using healthier ingredients! These vegan chocolate caramel crunch bars are the perfect weekend treat! Made with dates, tahini, protein crispies and dark chocolate, these bars make a tasty healthier substitute to things like brownies and cake when you're craving a bit of chocolate. I used protein soy crispies instead of rice crispises to bump up the protein content and add a delicious crunch! I topped the bars with a layer of smooth dark chocolate to make them a little more indulgent, but you can leave the chocolate out if you want to make them lighter or reduce the calorie count. The 'caramel' is made up of a simple blend of dates and tahini with [...]

Hot Cross Millionaire’s Shortbread

Hot Cross Millionaire’s Shortbread

We all need a treat this Easter after the last 12 months we've all had (stills can't believe it's been a whole year since the first lockdown!). And now that we can meet people outdoors again, it would be lovely to start sharing food with others. This Hot Cross Millionaire's Shortbread traybake is the perfect crowd pleaser that everyone can enjoy this Bank Holiday. Made up of a crumbly shortbread base, a healthier date caramel centre and a chocolate topping. What's not to love? I added the warming flavours of a hot cross bun, allspice and cinnamon, to make it taste more like a hot cross bun. You can also add some sultanas to the caramel centre to add more [...]

Easter Egg Brownies (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Easter Egg Brownies (Vegan & Gluten-free)

It's often difficult to make bakes that are both vegan and gluten-free. Vegan bakes usually work best with plain wheat flour and gluten-free bakes need eggs to make the recipe work. So it can be a struggle to tick both boxes and still end up with something yummy with the right texture and consistency. Not only have I managed to make these brownies both vegan AND gluten-free, I've also made them using only 6 main ingredients! They're delicious, especially when topped with a vegan white chocolate drizzle. If you're looking for an easy Easter bake that's both vegan and gluten-free (it's also nut-free!), then you need to try these brownies! I added some food colouring to the white chocolate to [...]

These brownies are based on [...]

*This post is sponsored by Conscious Chocolate* With Valentine's day just around the corner, why not make these cute vegan chocolate rose doughnuts for a special someone or a loved one? Healthier vegan and gluten-free chocolate doughnuts dipped in rose chocolate frosting for a decadent, yet light treat! The doughnuts are made with a mixture of gluten-free flour, almonds, cocoa powder and sweetened with coconut blossom sugar. They're baked rather than deep fired like typical doughnuts, so they feel much lighter and they're better for you! I used a 'flax egg' as a binder to make them vegan, but you can use a regular egg if you're not plant-based as well as regular dairy milk. If you're not fussed about the [...]
