Vegan Blueberry Crisp Tart

This vegan blueberry crisp tart is so delicious and easy to make. Perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream! Now that we're heading into autumn, I thought it was the perfect time to share a warming treat with autumnal vibes. Autumn has to be my favourite season in the year. Cosy clothes, hot drinks and comforting food...what's not to love? And now that we're all trying to stay indoors more, the lack of nice warm weather makes it that much easier to comply to social distancing rules! This vegan blueberry crisp tart is made with healthier ingredients and less sugar, but it's still extremely comforting and delicious. You can make it more indulgent by serving it warm with a [...]

Gluten-free Berry Bread Pudding

A gluten-free bread pudding recipe made from scratch with homemade gluten-free bread and blueberry compote! I found myself turning to my bread maker a lot more than usual during lockdown. There’s nothing better than making your own freshly baked loaf of bread, but it became a convenience thing and a necessity especially during the first few weeks of lockdown. I have to say I've really enjoyed experimenting with it and making more than just loaves of bread! Of course if you don’t feel like making a loaf of bread for this recipe, you have the option of buying one and using that to save time. I do find that homemade gluten-free bread works better for bread pudding though as it’s crustier [...]

Chocolate Covered Tahini Cookies

Crunchy sweet cookies dipped in dark chocolate...I can't imagine anything better than these chocolate covered tahini cookies! There is no question in my mind that crunchy cookies (aka biscuits as we refer to them here in the UK) always win over soft ones as far as I'm concerned. There is just something so so SO satisfying about digging your teeth into a hard cookie and hearing that crunch. So good! What makes a cookie even better is dipping it in chocolate. It takes it to a whole new level and makes something delicious even more so! I used my tahini cardamom cookie recipe, used a smaller cookie cutter, dipped it in chocolate and drizzled some more tahini on top for [...]

Delicious oaty and fruity treats that are super easy to make. These vegan gluten-free raspberry oat bars are the perfect treat for summer! These bars make a great snack or a healthier dessert, but they can also be enjoyed for breakfast if you're in a hurry and don't have time to put something together. I find treats like this really handy to have in the fridge for those times when I have the urge to reach out for the chocolate biscuits! The raspberries along with the lemon give these bars a zingy, tart flavour that makes them feel so refreshing and summery. You can substitute some of the sugar for stevia if you want to reduce the sugar content, but [...]

Vegan Salted Caramel Chocolate Protein Bars

* This post is sponsored by The Protein Works*  A yummy post-workout snack that tastes like a dessert! These vegan salted caramel chocolate protein bars are no-bake and really easy to put together! Sometimes I love to snack on protein bars instead of a dessert to try to bump up my protein intake in between meals. Especially on days where I haven't been able to prepare/eat well rounded meals and feel my protein intake has been on the low side. I used to regularly stock up vegan protein bars to have in my cupboard for a rainy day or to take with me on the go, but they can be really expensive, especially considering how easy they are to make [...]

Vegan Grilled Peach Sundae

It's safe to assume that this summer has seen more garden BBQs than ever before! Since the lockdown meant most of us were unable to make the most of the beautiful sunny days we've been experiencing throughout the last few months, more and more of us have chosen to make the most of the weather by pulling out the BBQs and enjoying the sunshine with some delicious food in our gardens! Have you ever thought of taking advantage of your BBQ to make a delicious dessert? Grilling fruit is so underrated - it completely changes the taste of the fruit and in this instant gives the peaches the most delicious charred caramelised taste! It brings out the natural sugars in [...]

Protein Cookie Dough Cups

* This post is sponsored by Juice Plus+*  An easy snack that requires few ingredients and steps - these protein cookie dough cups are no-bake and super tasty! I’ve always loved adding protein powder to my treats and snacks as you can easily bump up the nutrient content. Sweetened protein powders also add lots of flavour without having to add too much sweetener or not needing to add any at all! It’s a great alternative to flour in baking, but I prefer to use it in no-bake recipes as I feel the taste comes through a lot better. I created this recipe using Complete Vanilla Shake by Juice Plus+®, which is completely vegan and dairy-free. High in protein with some healthy [...]

The last thing you want to do is make a big batch of cookies only for them to end up being wasted or you feeling like you have to eat them all before they go off. It's also a great recipe for young couples who don't have a family and many mouths to feed. You can double the recipe and make one for you and your [...]
