Vegan Cheesecake Cashew Cups

Vegan Cheesecake Recipe

When the good weather comes out it always inspires me to try new recipes and I’ve really been into incorporating plant based recipes into our regular routine because I physically feel better eating less meat and dairy. I’ve really been inspired by the Minimalist Baker in recent months and my latest recipe love are these Vegan Cheesecake Cashew Cups.

With just 7 ingredients you can have a delicious dessert! They’re so creamy and satisfying, perfect for when you’re craving a treat but they’re still somewhat healthy.Read More »Vegan Cheesecake Cashew Cups

Date Peanut Butter Bars, No-Bake and Sugar-Free

I’ve become obsessed with dates. They are delicious on their own as a snack, but they’re also a great way to replace sugar in many recipes and baked goods or rethink the way you make traditional baked goods. This 2 layer no-bake date peanut butter bar recipe is refined sugar free but you’d never know because they’re so satisfying, chewy and delicious! Who knew a date peanut butter combo would be so good!

Dairy-free Blackberry Coconut Ice Cream Recipe

Recipe Adventure: Diary-Free Blackberry Coconut Ice Cream

It’s been super hot in Vancouver this Summer and we’re currently experiencing a drought, which is kind of ironic for a city that’s known for it’s rain. I miss the rain and cooler weather, but I know it will come soon and I’ll be longing for the sunny days again. Anyway, I don’t do well with heat and I’ll do anything to try cool off, I like to indulge (a bit too much) in ice cream, but sometimes a little too much dairy can give me a stomach ache, so this recipe is an alternative for when you’re craving ice cream, but don’t want the dairy.

lime coconut poppyseed yogurt loaf

Recipe Adventure: Lime Coconut Poppyseed Loaf

This recipe is very similar to my lemon loaf recipe I shared last year. It has the same base ingredients, but uses lime, toasted coconut and poppyseeds.

This loaf is super moist because it uses yogurt instead of butter and after it’s baked, you infuse the loaf with lime juice for added flavour. There’s also a delicious lime glaze that goes over the top along with toasted coconut.
