Vegan Biscoff Rocky Road

Vegan Biscoff Rocky Road

Vegan Biscoff Rocky Road A scrumptious chocolaty treat with lots of yummy flavours and interesting textures! Rocky road is such an easy dessert to make. No baking required and it's pretty foolproof so everyone and anyone can make it! It's enjoyed by adults and kids alike and is easily adjustable to suit different tastes, likes and dietary preferences. My father-in-law invited us to a last minute BBQ a few days ago and I wanted to make a speedy dessert to take with me so I don't show up empty handed. I had to make sure it was nut-free because my sister-in-law has a nut allergy. My husband's siblings are all a lot younger than him (the youngest being 13), so I had to also [...]

Vanilla Chocolate Sandwich Cookies

Vanilla Chocolate Sandwich Cookies

Vanilla Chocolate Sandwich Cookies It's no secret that I love cookies (or biscuits as we refer to them here in the UK) they're my favourite sweet treats and the kind of recipes I enjoy creating the most. I've made so many cookie recipes over the years from tahini chocolate cookies, no-bake thumbprint cookies and Nutella filled cookies to more adventurous cookies like chocolate & strawberry S'mores, cinnamon roll cookies and doughnut cookies more recently. I also love recreating vegan and gluten-free versions of classics like Jaffa cakes, Wagon Wheels and Jammie Dodgers. So yeah, I'm a cookie monster and proud of it! Another big love of mine is chocolate. Add chocolate to any dessert and I'll eat it! I think what [...]

Chocolate Chip Doughnut Cookies – Vegan & Gluten-free

Chocolate Chip Doughnut Cookies – Vegan & Gluten-free

Chocolate Chip Doughnut Cookies A crunchy cookie shaped like a doughnut. Who could resist one of these chocolate chip doughnut cookies? I haven't posted a dessert recipe on my blog in a while, which is so unlike me! So I thought it was about time I posted a new healthified treat. Chocolate chip cookies are a classic, and although they're perfect just the way they are, I wanted to put a fun spin on them. I used a silicon doughnut mould to create choc chip cookies shaped like a doughnuts to make them stand out from the crowed, and also because why not? I don't know what it is with me and doughnut shaped treats that are not actually doughnuts! I just [...]

Breakfast Berry Crumble

Breakfast Berry Crumble

Breakfast Berry Crumble Dessert for breakfast? Yes please! This breakfast berry crumble is bursting with blueberry and raspberry goodness and topped with the most scrumptious crumble topping! A few weeks ago I posted a recipe for this raspberry almond baked oats and it was received so well. I guess you all love berries and oats just as much as I do :D I thought I would make another breakfast recipe with berries. Especially seeing that the weather isn't getting any warmer in the UK and we still need all the comfort we can get first thing in the morning before kickstarting our day. Although the word 'breakfast' is in the title, there is no reason why you can't enjoy this breakfast berry crumble any time [...]

Vegan Raspberry Cheesecake Cups (cashew-free/nut-free/gluten-free)

Vegan Raspberry Cheesecake Cups (cashew-free/nut-free/gluten-free)

Vegan Raspberry Cheesecake Cups Mini vegan raspberry cheesecake cups that also happen to be cashew-free, nut-free and gluten-free! If you search for vegan cheesecake recipes online you'll find that most of them are made with the same main ingredient - cashews! Not that there's anything wrong with cashews, but I wanted to make a plant-based cheesecake that resembles the 'real thing' and I found the best way to do that is by using a dairy-free cream cheese alternative. Both the taste and texture is more true to the original, which is what you want really if you're making a 'cheesecake'. Especially if you're making it for a non-vegan and you want to impress them, a cashew cheesecake just won't cut [...]

California Walnut Coffee Cake Bars

California Walnut Coffee Cake Bars

California Walnut Coffee Cake Bars Looking for the perfect cake to enjoy with your afternoon cup of tea? This is it right here! These California walnut coffee cake bars are my current favourite pick me up with a lovely warm drink. I usually go for chocolatey desserts, but I always get excited when I see a coffee treat on offer. Chocolate is everywhere, but a decent coffee dessert is much harder to come by, so when you finally discover one it feels so much more special. I think coffee as a flavour is not taken advantage of enough in the baking world. Even I rarely make coffee flavoured treats. Well that's about to change from this point onwards. A delicious vegan [...]
