Kale Sweet Potato Hash

Kale Sweet Potato Hash

*This post is sponsored by Discover Great Veg* A delicious and comforting meal that’s also good for you! A versatile dish that you can enjoy for breakfast or as a side with lunch/dinner. It’s such an easy and tasty way to get lots of veggie goodness into your meals! I always prefer using sweet potato to regular potatoes in general, but especially recipes like this. It just adds so much more flavour and it’s also better for you! Kale and sweet potato are the perfect match – when the kale cooks it absorbs all the lovely spices and balances out the sweetness of the potatoes perfectly. I’m teaming up again with Discover Great Veg to provide you with inspiration on [...]

Single Serving Vegan Cinnamon Roll

Single Serving Vegan Cinnamon Roll

A delicious & warming treat that's ready in no time! This single serving vegan cinnamon roll is the perfect treat when you're craving something comforting that's not overly indulgent. I've made my fair share of single-serving recipes that you can make in the microwave in a couple of minutes. Recipes like: • Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie• Vegan Gluten-Free Chocolate Mug Cake• Vegan Peanut Butter Mug Cake• Banana Bread Mug Cake However, every single time I post a recipe that's cooked in the microwave, the first question I get asked is "I don't like using the microwave, can I bake it in the oven instead?". So today I'm sharing a quick and easy single serving dessert recipe that's baked in [...]

Mini Vegan Pecan Pies

Mini Vegan Pecan Pies

An easy and comforting treat - these mini vegan pecan pies are so delicious and can easily be made gluten-free too! Pecans (along with pistachios!) are my favourite nut. They're so addictive when roasted and taste so delicious when they come in the form of a decadent and warming pie. This recipe is based on my festive spiced pecan pie that I created a couple of years ago for Christmas. I haven't made a vegan pie since (I have no idea why!) and I've been craving some recently, so thought it was about time I make another one. I wanted to make an even easier version of my recipe using ready rolled shortcrust pastry. I know that pastry is not [...]

Vegan Gluten-free Cinnamon Roll Cookies

Vegan Gluten-free Cinnamon Roll Cookies

Vegan Gluten-free Cinnamon Roll Cookies Cinnamon rolls with a twist, or are they cinnamon cookies with a twist? I'm not sure, but what I do know is that these vegan gluten-free cinnamon roll cookies are absolutely delicious and super addictive. Having only one is not an option I always enjoy baking with spices, but even more do during winter and especially closer to Christmas time. I grew up not celebrating Christmas, even though I'm half English, I grew up in Iraq, a muslim country and there weren't many English/Christian people around us, so there didn't seem much of a point to celebrate it. Also, I grew up in a third world, war torn country that was subjected to sanctions that made it difficult [...]

Chocolate Salted Caramel Cups

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.

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.

Since Instagram Reels came along late last year, I've started filming and editing A LOT more videos, which take [...]

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 [...]

Easter Egg Brownies (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Easter Egg Brownies (Vegan & Gluten-free)

It's often difficult to make bakes that are both vegan and gluten-free. Vegan bakes usually work best with plain wheat flour and gluten-free bakes need eggs to make the recipe work. So it can be a struggle to tick both boxes and still end up with something yummy with the right texture and consistency. Not only have I managed to make these brownies both vegan AND gluten-free, I've also made them using only 6 main ingredients! They're delicious, especially when topped with a vegan white chocolate drizzle. If you're looking for an easy Easter bake that's both vegan and gluten-free (it's also nut-free!), then you need to try these brownies! I added some food colouring to the white chocolate to [...]
