I spent a year living in England, where I met my English hubs, so needless to say — he and I both have a fond appreciation for the scone! We also really love the flavor combination of orange and chocolate, which I found to be much more popular in Europe than in America. I really…

Cinnamon Rolls
These are vegan. And homemade. I know – I can’t believe it either! I’ve never had much luck with using yeast in recipes, but this time it worked out marvelously for these gorgeous cinnamon rolls! I know that the temperature and conditions of your proving location is key. Maybe I just got lucky that my…
Chocolate Banana Pudding
For some reason I associate chocolate with love and romance. Maybe because I’m such a chocolate-lover, and am always overjoyed to receive gifts of the chocolate-kind. Anyway, for this Valentine’s Day I’m making some chocolate pudding for my puddin’. Your SO will love this creamy, luscious dessert topped with crushed pistachios or fresh sliced strawberries….
Peanut Butter Fudge
I have a huge sweet tooth, but most of the time I find fudge a bit too sweet even for my tastes. I don’t often crave it, and haven’t missed it that much since going vegan. But….this fudge adapted from Minimalist Baker has changed my mind! It’s only sweetened with a touch of maple syrup…
Loaded Oatmeal Cookies
Baking Christmas cookies is such a lovely tradition for so many people. It’s as if it’s not really Christmas if you don’t bake a batch of cookies for someone you love, or at least for the big guy in the red suit! Whether it’s a cookie exchange, a potluck office party, a hostess gift, or…

It featured easy recipes that kids could help make with their parents. This cake became a favorite in our household, especially on birthdays and special occasions….
Key Lime Pie
It’s my birthday today! I have been craving key lime pie for quite some time now, so I figured there’s no better time to make it than my birthday! Plus, I’d never tried baking with aquafaba before so I bought myself a hand mixer as a birthday present and was determined to make some vegan…

Chocolate Tahini Date Balls
I’ve already shared a recipe for date balls (here), but these super snacks are too good not to repeat. I personally love them as an alternative to processed / packaged snack foods, and they are so sweet even kids will love them! This flavor combination is inspired by Natural Kitchen Adventures and uses tahini, sesame…
