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 […]
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 […]

No Bake Festive Chocolate Bites

Did you know that November is World Vegan Month? For those of you who don’t know, I’m not actually vegan or veggie myself BUT I eat 90% plant-based out of choice: I live off wholegrains, fruit and vegetables, veggie protein sources like Quorn, tofu, pulses, lentils and nuts, with some dairy products and occasionally eat […]

Using pumpkin within a super easy vegan and gluten-free brownie mixture, […]
