What's so special about waffles? I never really saw what all the fuss was about, until now! Since hubby was given a waffle maker for his birthday, I tried it for the first time and fell in love! Pancake weekends are now referred to as waffle weekends! Don't get me wrong, I will always love my pancakes. The thing about waffles, and it's something that you can never get with pancakes, is their crispiness.
I made this cheesecake for my brother's birthday the other day. I thought it would be a nice change from a regular birthday cake, plus he likes peanut butter and chocolate and I thought that combo would go so much better in the form of a cheesecake! This cheesecake is vegan, dairy-free and gluten-free.
Last year I made a healthier version of my favourite cookies - Kleicha (كليجة) which are Iraqi date cookies that are traditionally served on Eid (A religious holiday to celebrate the end of the month of Ramadan where muslims fast from sun rise to sun set for a whole month). Even though I loved the version I made last year, I wanted to outdo myself by making an even better and healthier version!
Banana ice cream is by far the best, tastiest and healthiest way to cool down on a hot summer's day, in my opinion. It's so quick to make, given that you have bananas in your freezer which I make sure I always do during summer in anticipation for such scorching days, and it's so creamy and delicious without any guilt whatsoever!
Now that it's summer (It's a particularly hot day here in the UK!) it's time to bring out the summery, fruity, light desserts (don't worry I'll also be posting chocolate recipes haha!), and these vegan raspberry chia bars tick all the right boxes!
Smoothies are one of the easiest ways to get some fruit and veg into your daily diet. It's also one of the easiest ways to create a balanced meal with sufficient amounts of carbohydrates, proteins and fats!
I absolutely adore this recipe! This bread is so moist, sweet and really good for you! Baking is my passion, I can easily live on baked goods (breads, cakes, cookies...you name it!), but they have to be healthy, of course! Otherwise the guilt would totally take over, not to mention the bloating and mood swings that follow eating sugary, fatty goods!
