Peanut Butter Cereal Bars

Ever since I was a kid, I’ve loved the ooey gooey texture of rice krispie treats. Since marshmallows aren’t typically vegan, I haven’t had one of these sticky squares in a while. I had puffed rice cereal leftover from when I made curry trail mix that I wanted to use up, and thinking back to my…

Ooey Gooey Brownies

I think brownies might be my favorite dessert. I have always preferred chocolate-y over fruity flavors, and a brownie is the perfect somewhere between cookie and cake – moist and gooey, yet substantial and more celebratory than a regular-ol’ cookie.

Banana Muffins

Brown bananas are a weekly output in our apartment. For whatever reason, we never manage to buy the bunches at the peak ripeness so that we can eat them all week long. Either they are too green and you can’t eat them right away, or they are too yellow and turn brown at too fast…
