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.

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 [...]

Vegan Cookie Dough Brownies

Vegan Cookie Dough Brownies

Delicious ooey gooey brownies topped with an equally yummy cookie dough layer! These vegan cookie dough brownies are a must try! This recipe is slightly more difficult compared to my usual 4 or 5 ingredient recipes, but the result is so worth the extra effort! It's still really easy, you just need to create 2 separate batters, one for the brownie layer and another for the cookie dough! They're made using healthier ingredients like oats, almonds, flaxseed and almond butter! I did use brown sugar to sweeten, but a little sugar here and there is ok as long as you don't over do it. Vegan Cookie Dough Brownies Makes - 8 Ingredients For the brownie layer50g (1/4 cup) ground almonds55g [...]

Blueberry Lemon Breakfast Bars

Blueberry Lemon Breakfast Bars

These breakfast bars are perfect to have in the fridge for super busy weeks. You know, for those days when you have no time in the morning for a sit down breakfast or even enough time to prepare anything to take with you. Packed with antioxidants from the blueberries as well as fibre and slow releasing energy from the oats. Lemon and blueberries is just the most refreshing, zingy combination. I absolutely love fruity treats and these blueberry lemon breakfast bars just hit the spot. They're sweet enough to curb that sugar craving a lot of us have first thing in the morning, but not overly sweet. These bars would also make a really nice snack in between meals or [...]

Za’atar Pitta Chips & Baba Ganoush

Za’atar Pitta Chips & Baba Ganoush

If you've followed me for a while you'll know that I grew up in the Middle East and so the cuisine and the flavours associated with it hold a special place in my heart. There are so many amazing ingredients and tastes that can help brin healthy meals to life without having to use too much of the other ingredients that make food taste good, namely oil, salt and sugar! Za'atar is one ingredient I can't get enough of. It's typically used as a flatbread/Arabic pizza topping, but it's also amazing as a convenient and yummy seasoning for vegetables, meats and dips. The easiest way to enjoy za'atar (a herb mix which you can now find in most major supermarkets!) [...]
