Vegan Chocolate Banana Bread

Who could say no to a lush slice of vegan chocolate banana bread? Not me! Banana bread is delicious as is, but add chocolate into the mix and you'll end up with something truly irresistible ? Banana bread is probably one of my favourite types of cake. I've made a few of banana bread recipes in the past, like my  walnut banana bread, banana blueberry bread and this banana avocado bread. I can see myself making many more variations in the future too :D I just love how dense and moist they are. You really can't go wrong with a good banana bread. It's such a crowd-pleaser! Treat yourself or make it the next time you want to impress someone with your [...]

Protein Chocolate Cupcakes (With a Protein Chocolate Frosting)

Protein Chocolate Cupcakes with a simple 3-ingredient protein chocolate frosting. They're easy to make, delicious and made using healthier ingredients! I love adding protein powder to my treats. It's such an easy way to add extra goodness without compromising on taste or texture. The great thing about using flavoured protein powders is that they also add some sweetness, meaning you don't need to use as much sugar as you would in a regular recipe. Not only are these cupcakes high in protein, they're also lower in added sugar!  I also love using finely ground oats instead of plain flour in my bakes. I find it works amazingly well in so many recipes.  These cupcakes are topped with a simple 3-ingredient [...]

Vegan Protein Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

A protein recipe that tastes like a naughty dessert! These vegan protein chocolate peanut butter cups make a great snack or healthier treat. I love making treats like this for when I'm craving something sweet and chocolatey, but don't want something too decadent. They're no-bake, so really easy to make and you can change the recipe around depending on your preference. For example, if you don't have peanut butter, you can use any nut butter you like. Or if you have a nut allergy, use a seed butter like tahini or sunflower seed butter instead. You can also make them in a square cake tin and slice them into squares instead of individual cups. If you want to make them [...]

Something like this vegan cannellini bean dip. The  The recipe is basically exactly the same as the one I use to make [...]
