Chickpea Cookie Dough Balls

I'm a huge fan of the idea of adding beans, lentils and pulses into sweet treats. They bump up the fibre, mineral and vitamin content while giving desserts a lovely moist texture. It also means you don't need to add as much flour or even cut it out completely! Beans & pulses are so underrated, under-consumed and unappreciated. They're such an amazing source of nutrients, protein and fibre and yet as a nation we hardly ever eat them! Baked beans are probably the only exception but they come with added salt and sugar and to be fair there is only so much you can do with them. On toast, on baked potatoes or on the side of a fry up.  Beans and pulses are [...]

Vegan Chocolate Brownies

(AD) Super decadent brownies that are completely plant-based! If you’re looking for a yummy, sweet treat, you NEED these vegan chocolate brownies in your life! To me, brownies have to be fudgy, dense and gooey. Cakey brownies just don’t cut it for me. They have to be rich and chocolatey like these vegan chocolate brownies. You can get creative and make it your own by adding things like chopped nuts, dried fruit, chocolate chips or even drizzle nut butter on top of the batter before baking to create a swirl effect!   Nestlé has recently launched a new vegan condensed milk alternative to their iconic Carnation range and I’m collaborating with them to show how it’s such a fun and versatile [...]
