The guys at CoYo have developed an organic dairy-free kefir made using traditional age old methods by fermenting their coconut milk with live, vegan kefir cultures to produce a rich drink brimming with billions of live active cultures. Sound good? If you’re a fan of their wonderful yogurts and ice creams, this recent addition is […]

Banana, Coffee & Pecan Cake
GO BIG ON PLANTS. That’s the message for Alpro’s annual Plant Power Day on 7th March, aiming to show just how easy it is for us to enjoy more plants while reducing your carbon footprint and helping the environment. Sharing tips, hacks, recipes and ideas, although one day won’t change the world, it only takes […]
Perfect Breakfast Pancakes
That’s right, another pancake recipe coming right at you! Because I feel like I’m getting into the swing of making them and I’m super happy with this mixture to create the perfect breakfast pancakes – which are gluten-free, dairy-free and can be vegan (if you use maple syrup in place of honey) – so great […]
Chocolate, Banana & Coconut Pancakes
So Pancake Day is upon us which for some might just be a standard day – I mean, who DOESN’T like pancakes?? To be honest, which might come as a surprise, I don’t actually make them as much as I’d like to so when The Groovy Food Company got in touch about re-creating their breakfast […]
Banana Blueberry Loaf
As much as I love creating my own recipes, I’m always on the lookout to be inspired and try out existing ones. Bananas are one of my staples when it comes to healthy baking as they add a natural sweetness and moisture, meaning you can cut down on fat and sugar in the recipe which […]
Chocolate, Raspberry & Beetroot Cheesecake
I spent a lot of time creating plenty of Valentine’s Day themed recipes for the brands I work with running up to February 14th so I thought I should have at least one on my blog too! Using ingredients I had to hand in my kitchen, I wanted to make an easy dessert that could […]
Pretty Pink Coconut & White Chocolate Bars
As if I needed any kind of excuse to share another chocolate recipe… Thanks to Seed & Bean for a recent delivery, which included a bar of their sensational Raspberry & Vanilla White Chocolate, I thought I’d make use of pretty pink colour in a Valentine’s themed recipe. Combined with a no-bake oaty base and […]
Energy Boosting Cherry, Coconut & Chocolate Bites
‘Delicious chocolate with good intentions’ is what Benefit Chocolate is all about. Part of the Benefit Drinks family, who make wonderful juices like carrot, beetroot and prune, I always get excited when I get the chance to work with one of my favourite ingredients! With three different 85% cacao dark chocolate bars in the range […]
Date Caramel Dandelion & Burdock Pudding
I’m posting this recipe while I’m sat by the window looking out onto a very cold, snowy garden. That’s right, the UK has been hit by the white stuff so it’s feeling very cosy indeed – and the perfect timing for a warming recipe like this one! Working once again with Mr Fitzpatrick’s Vintage Cordials, […]
Chocolate Banana Peanut Butter Slice
Today has to be my favourite ‘National [insert food here’ Day’ – PEANUT BUTTER DAY. It’s my answer when someone asks what’s the food I can’t live without. 100% I consume it in some way or form every day, and I still can’t decide if I prefer crunchy or smooth to be honest! In celebration […]
Raspberry Loaf
Who doesn’t love a spot of baking? It’s fun, therapeutic and the best bit – eating the baked goods when they are ready! Whether you’re fully vegan or doing Veganuary for a challenge, baking may seem a bit daunting or uncertain if you’re not sure about what ingredients or alternatives to use compared to traditional […]
Raspberry Chocolate & Coconut Blondies
Mmmmmm BLONDIES. I’ve always seen them as a brownie’s less popular cousin, which is crazy as they are slightly less rich if you’re not in the chocolate mood, but still delicious and fudgey. With this recipe I think I’ve nailed a banging vegan mixture which is packed with juicy raspberries and Seed & Bean’s wonderfully […]
Chocolate Chunk Cookie Dough Bites
These vegan-friendly cookie dough bites are genuinely one of the best things I’ve made. Almost like a mix between a cookie and shortbread biscuit, it’s simply made from oats and cashews blended with coconut oil, nut butter and maple syrup to provide the creamiest base spiked with delicious chunks of Montezuma’s incredible Like No Udder […]
Rhubarb, Rose & Orange Berry Traybake
Another collaboration with Mr Fitzpatrick’s Vintage Cordials ahoy! It’s always a pleasure to work with this wonderful drinks brand using their no added sugar cordials, they pack in such a punch of flavour and it’s nice to use them as a natural flavouring and boost things like cakes, loafs and other healthy bakes. This time […]
Salted Caramel, Peanut Butter & Chocolate Bites
January is all about green juices, detoxes and zero treats, right? WRONG. I’m all about balance, health and not succumbing to ridiculous trends or jumping on meaningless, damaging bandwagons of slimming teas, weight loss shakes or fat-burning tablets… Instead, treating healthy living as a long-term way of life, enjoying food and exercising for the body […]
