Vegan Breakfast Cookies

Vegan Breakfast Cookies

These vegan breakfast cookies are so easy to make and so convenient when prepared ahead of time. They're made with healthier ingredients and can even be enjoyed as a snack or healthier dessert! Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day. I could happily eat breakfast foods 3 times a day. I love preparing it too too - what I'm going to have for breakfast tends to be the first thing I think of when I open my eyes in the morning (I know I'm not alone in this!). Having said all that, some mornings I wake up and the That's why I love breakfasts that you can prepare in advance - either the night before or a couple of [...]

Peanut Butter Chocolate Oat Cups

Peanut Butter Chocolate Oat Cups

Delicious oaty cups with a layer of peanut butter all topped with smooth chocolate - these Peanut Butter Chocolate Oat Cups are super delicious and packed with goodness. Even though we've had many hot days here in the UK, that shouldn't stop us from the joy of making our own treats. The way around it is to make desserts that don't require you turning on the oven.

Treats like these peanut butter chocolate oat cups are perfect for such warm and clammy days. They're no-bake and they're served cold straight from the fridge. The no baking part [...]

Vegan Gluten-free Matcha Pistachio Butter Cookies

Vegan Gluten-free Matcha Pistachio Butter Cookies

Deliciously light and so pretty, these matcha pistachio butter cookies are the perfect treat to enjoy this New Year's Eve! I've taken a simple butter cookie recipe and made it both vegan AND gluten-free. Although I used oats instead of flour, it's not the healthiest dessert I've ever made as there is a lot of dairy-free butter in there and I used icing sugar to sweeten. However, it's New Year's Eve in a couple of days and if we can't enjoy an indulgent treat now, then when can we? Right? I dipped them in matcha white chocolate (I made my own by mixing matcha powder in melted white chocolate) and topped them with chopped pistachios to make them even fancier, [...]

Gluten-Free Vegan Yule Log

*This post is sponsored by FREEE* If you’re looking for a show-stopping dessert, this gluten-free vegan yule log is for you! A delicious chocolate sponge with a buttercream filling and a decadent ganache topping – what’s not to love? Yule logs can be tricky, but somehow FREEE managed to make a really easy fool-proof recipe that’s both vegan and gluten-free! The sponge is so chocolatey (and easy to roll!) with a deliciously smooth filling and a lush ganache. How they were able to tick all those boxes, I don’t know! I must admit I’d never made a yule log before. They seemed too faffy and long winded, but when I saw how simple the instructions for this recipe were, I [...]

Coconut Caramel Bars

Coconut Caramel Bars

A delicious sweet treat that's super easy to make, these coconut caramel bars are the perfect post meal treat! Have you seen the new Celebrations Christmas advert? You know, the one where the bounty bar is lonely and no one loves him. It's become a running joke that the humble Bounty bar is the one chocolate left untouched every Christmas when the Celebration box comes out. What?? Is it just me that ALWAYS picks a bounty before any of the other Celebrations chocs? I'd be happy with a box full of bounty bars and nothing else. Actually, my partner is the same as me. Bounty is his favourite, so neither of us can understand why they're so unloved! I love [...]

Chocolate Filled Peanut Butter Energy Balls

Chocolate Filled Peanut Butter Energy Balls

A delicious healthier snack to keep your craving at bay - these chocolate filled peanut butter energy balls are satisfying, yet made with healthier ingredients. I'm sure I'm not the only feeling this, but since the temperature suddenly dropped a couple of weeks ago, I seem to be finding myself a lot hungrier than usual. I want to eat all the time! The clocks going back and losing day light hasn't helped either. The days have become so gloomy that I'm finding myself seeking comfort in food. I do separate my 'treats' from my everyday snacks and I have to make an active effort not to constantly snack on unhealthy treats. A biscuit or a dessert here and there as [...]

Hazelnut Cream Bars

Hazelnut Cream Bars

A biscuit base, smooth hazelnut centre all topped with dark chocolate - these hazelnut cream bars are so delicious and dreamy! I made these copycat Kinder Bueno Bars a few weeks ago and they were a massive hit! What I love most about them is that the hazelnut cream centre is literally made up of 2 ingredients only - white chocolate and hazelnut butter! I just love recipes with few ingredients. I wanted to use that 2 ingredient hazelnut cream and incorporate it into another one of my popular recipes - these Biscoff Squares. These hazelnut cream bars are made using healthier ingredients like oats, ground almonds and hazelnut butter. I always try to use less sugar/sweetener in my treats [...]

I created this cake to celebrate BULK's 15th birthday! I'm proud to say I've been a BULK ambassador since January this year and it's been such a pleasure being part of their team. There are many reasons I love working with BULK. As someone from an ethnic minority, it's amazing to work with such a huge brand and feel so included as part of their massive team of ambassadors. It's also great to know that I work with a [...]
