Vegan Double Chocolate Banana Bread
I have always loved banana bread. It is something that my Mom and Grandma always made when I was little (the same shared recipe) and it was always so good no matter the variation of it that was baked that day. Sometimes it had nuts or chocolate chips but the chocolate chip version was my […]
Strawberry Basil Foccacia
I love foccacia bread! It is always so delicious and it is fairly easy to make. I love it served with soup, salad or just for snacking! Although I have only ever made simple foccacia usually just with herbs and garlic or just plain, I see lots of them made topped with veggies, so I […]
Vegan Date Cinnamon Swirl Bread
I always loved cinnamon bread growing up, especially for toast! It was amazing with some butter on it for a breakfast treat! I preferred the plain cinnamon, not the cinnamon raisin because I am not a big raisin fan. But I was thinking recently, you know what would make cinnamon raisin swirl bread better? […]
Vegan Blueberry Maple French Toast Casserole
One of my favorite things to do with a bunch of leftover bread is french toast casserole! I will often times put bread in the freezer if we don’t eat it all in a couple days because I don’t want it to get stale. But sometimes I forget it is in there. I had a […]
Vegan Berry Swirl Bread
I am so ready for spring! It felt like Spring here in Minnesota for about a week with temperatures in the high 30s and 40s and the snow was melting. So I spent as much time outside as possible when I could and dreamed about actual spring and decided that making something with strawberries sounded […]
Vegan Pumpkin Cornbread
I make chili almost every week. It is usually with rice on top and avocado, but last time I made it Eric told me that he prefers his with cornbread, so I said I would make some soon. I used to always make cornbread with my chili back in the day, and serve it topped […]
Vegan Pumpkin Spice Monkey Bread
When I was little, my Grandma was an amazing baker! Everything she made was so delicious and when I walked into her house and smelled something baking I knew I was in for a treat. Or even better, when she let me help her make things! One of my favorite things ever was her […]
Vegan Apple Cinnamon Sweet Rolls
Apple season is in full swing! Although I have yet to make it to the apple orchard this year, I really want to go soon, I love going there are picking my own apples! However I did recently buy some apples at a farm market when we visited Door County Wisconsin recently. They […]
Vegan Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirled Banana Bread
Banana bread was always one of my favorite baked goods growing up. Whenever we had over ripe bananas on hand, my Mom would make my Grandma’s banana bread recipe, and it was always so good. She would usually swap out the nuts for chocolate chips and that was my favorite way to enjoy […]
Vegan Chocolate Caramel Pecan Bread Pudding
Over the New Years holiday, we got a bit of snow and it was chilly for a few days before it warmed up again so I figured it was the perfect time to make some sweet comfort food. Not only that, why not make something delicious to celebrate?! I had a loaf of somewhat stale […]
Vegan Gingerbread Banana Bread
Last weekend Eric and I drove up north to Banning State Park in Minnesota to enjoy the fall colors, and it was honestly some of the most spectacular scenery I have seen this time of the year. The conditions seem to be just right this year, it stayed warm pretty long, and everything is vibrant […]
Vegan Blueberry Sweet Rolls
We are at the tail end of summer, so I am enjoying all of the berry deliciousness that I can! Which includes desserts, and other creations besides just eating them plain. Like these vegan blueberry rolls! When we visited Eric’s Dad in July he sent us home with lots of his home […]
Vegan Banana Caramel Rolls
Easter is coming up next weekend, and although it will be a little different this year, me and my family will still be enjoying good food. Honestly, most years we go out to dinner for Easter, so it will be nice to make some of the traditional things I enjoyed growing up and share with […]
Vegan Maple Pecan French Toast Casserole
I always loved french toast growing up. Even though it is something that is supposed to be made with leftover stale dry bread, I always thought it was special because I didn’t get to have it often. Yet, we always had the ingredients on hand. I thought that when I went vegan it would be […]
Grandma’s Banana Bread Veganized
My Mom made the best banana bread when I was little. It was my Great Grandma’s recipe, passed down to my Grandma, then to my Mom. Written out on a recipe card, from a time long before we could look up recipes online. I have tried many different kinds, we often had some at church […]
Vegan Raspberry Chocolate Chunk Bread Pudding
When I have a lovely loaf of crusty bread, there are two things I love doing most with it. Enjoying it with soup so I can dunk it in and soak up the goodness, and making bread pudding. I usually end up doing both if it is a large loaf and I have enough. I […]
Vegan Peanut Butter and Jelly Sweet Rolls
I have made classic caramel rolls, and cinnamon rolls but I thought I would make something a little different last weekend as far as rolls went because I am always open to trying new things when it comes to making recipes! I has some of Eric’s Dad’s home made jam and I thought […]
Vegan Banana Bread Pudding with Caramel
I was gifted some really good sourdough bread and decided that it would be lovely in some bread pudding. I had made some pumpkin bread pudding a few months back with some sourdough bread and it was amazing and I have been wanting to make more ever since. It was perfect timing! I didn’t want […]
Vegan Pumpkin Bread Pudding with Caramel
Earlier this week, a coworker shared some of her home made sourdough bread with me. It was amazing. I am super picky when it comes to bread. It has to be a crusty bread, with good texture (I do not like regular sandwich bread unless it is toasted), and a good chew to it. I […]
Vegan Maple Cinnamon Rolls
Nothing beats the aroma of freshly baked cinnamon rolls. It is such a happy smell, and one can not possibly be in a bad mood when exposed to the heavenly scent! At least I can’t. I have always loved them, since I was a little kid. I used to like it when my Mom made […]
Vegan Maple Cinnamon Sweet Potato Bread
Sweet potatoes are one of my all time favorite things to eat. Baked to perfection with the sweet flavors intensified, then stuffed, or mashed with a hint of lime and sea salt, or cut into yam fries and baked, or roasted crispy in salads, or in chunks in soups…the possibilities are endless and I include […]
Vegan Blueberry Muffin Cake
Blueberry muffins remind me of lazy Saturday mornings. When I was little, I would beg my Dad to let me help him make them. It wasn’t that difficult…considering we used the ones from a box. My Dad did not inherit my Grandma’s baking skills. But I still loved the muffins anyhow. Especially when still warm […]
Vegan Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Bread
It has been a very long time since I made banana bread. I used to make it often when I was younger. I remember it was one of the first things I attempted to bake at home when I was in middle school. Using my Grandma’s recipe written on a worn out card. Those were […]
Vegan Mocha Pumpkin Bread
I had some leftover pumpkin from another recipe needing to be used in the fridge, and I did not want to put a lot of work into making something with it. Cake sounded good, but I have made lots of pumpkin spice cakes this year. Plus cake was a little more work than I wanted. […]
Vegan Cheddar Thyme Biscuits
I haven’t made biscuits in ages, and I know I have never made vegan biscuits, so I decided to make some last Monday on my day off. Honestly, I had seen someone making some on a cooking show and they started to sound really good to me. I told Eric I was going to make […]
Vegan Pumpkin Pull Apart Bread
My Grandma used to make the most wonderful thing in the world (at least to my five year old self), monkey bread. In case you have never heard of it, it is bread that is shaped into little balls, all baked together with cinnamon sugar that becomes gooey and caramel like, and pecans. It was […]
Chipotle Chickpea Salad Sandwiches
I was never a huge fan of chicken salad growing up, so I am not sure where my urge to make vegan chickpea salad sandwiches came from. Maybe because chickpeas are way more delicious to me than chicken ever was, and I can make my own plant based mayo (I was never a fan of […]
