Vegan almond cookies with almonds…amazing, really, with or without an added almond on top (although adding them makes the cookies super cute!) I love shopping discounts, and for some reason, that has resulted in a situation where I have a ton of almond butter sitting around the house. Almond butter […]

These are not your normal, everyday sort of peanut butter cookies. These are packed with the maximum amount of peanut butter that a cookie can still hold, and on top of that, these soft, moist ball-shape cookies melt in your mouth and are amazing fresh out of the oven or […]
These matcha shortbreads were a purposeful endeavor to create some cookies (of this exact flavor) that are vegan, gluten-free, soy-free, and nut-free. I was pretty excited at first, starting with my regular recipe of matcha shortbreads (not published) and deciding how it might make sense to de-allergy-fy it. Four attempts […]
I’m constantly curious to see what happens when adding carefully selected but out-of-context flavors together. These masala oatmeal raisin cookies were born out of that curiosity! Soft and tender, the masala flavor is very subtle–you’ll miss it if you’re not careful! These bake up nicely and quickly and don’t require […]
My soy-free friends have often complained that having chocolate is a near impossibility, because in just about every type of chocolate, there’s some sort of soy, even if just soy lecithin. Having made chocolate myself and knowing it’s totally possible to make without soy, this was sort of a revelation […]
Love is always in season! Originally conceptualized for Valentine’s Day, these little raspberry jam hearts are perfect for any time of year! Slightly crunchy with just the right amount of sweet, the only special tools you need for these are two heart shaped cookie cutters that fit inside one another. […]
I have a confession…I have a mega sweet tooth. BUT, I don’t really eat a lot of sweets. I do bake a lot of sweets, usually for events, friends, and family, but the type of sweets I generally indulge are those which are made of fruit…like this one! “What? I came here […]
This pie crust is the result of making a celebratory pie for a friend at work after a milestone was reached. Those that are in the know are aware that anything I make is going to be plant-based…but the nice thing about work is that not everyone is “in the […]
Growing up, my family always used to make sweet potato casserole at Thanksgiving, and sometimes Christmas, too. When I went vegan many years ago, this was one of the first recipes I aimed to veganize. Now that I’m also somewhat of a health freak as well, I admittedly don’t make […]
These superfood energy balls (think no-bake healthy cookies!) have just a handful of ingredients, are quick and easy to make, and give us an excuse to eat more superfoods! Oil-free, vegan, gluten-free, nut-free, low-fat, refined sugar free, soy free…I think we got all the “frees” with this one 😀 I […]
Coconut is one of our favorite flavors….obviously 😀 These soft and delicious vegan coconut cookies are packed with coconut–AND friendly to most of the allergies and food sensitivities out there. Vegan Coconut Cookies – What Else? They’re not only vegan but also gluten-free, nut-free, soy-free, egg-free, and dairy-free! Coconut shreds, […]
What’s even better than cinnamon buns? Apple roses, of course! Essentially a simple combination of pie crust (which we’re going to make from scratch), vegan margarine, apples, sugar, and spice (and everything nice?) They look impressive, and I’m not going to lie–they can be a little tricky to roll up […]
