Fragrant Vanilla Cake

Vegan Dark Chocolate Orange Doughnuts

I am loving all things citrus lately, and also anything involving chocolate.  So last weekend when I decided to do some baking, I wanted to combine chocolate and orange since it is such a heavenly combination!  I thought about making a cake, but I decided that it would be fun to make baked doughnuts instead […]

Vegan Samoa Doughnuts

Samoas were always my favorite Girl Scout cookies growing up, what’s not to love about a vanilla cookie with chewy caramel, coconut and chocolate?!  So now I love making desserts with that same flavor profile.  I have made cakes, cupcakes, replica cookies, granola, energy balls.  This time I decided to make Vegan Samoa Doughnuts!  I […]

Vegan Cinnamon Sugar Apple Doughnuts

Last weekend Eric and visited a local apple orchard where you can pick your own apples.  This week they were offering sweet tango apples which are a good balance of tart and sweet, so that was what we ended up picking.  It was a beautiful day to walk through the orchard, the sun was shining […]

Vegan Matcha Mint Doughnuts

I can’t believe it is already Christmas this week!  Time has flown, and as always this time of year is busy, so instead of making a cake this week when I felt like making a treat, I decided to make doughnuts instead!  I like to enjoy doughnuts with my coffee sometimes on the weekends, and […]

Vegan Cookies and Cream Doughnuts

I don’t normally buy store bought cookies, but since I was gifted a more “natural” version of some Oreo type cookies, and they tasted good, I decided it would be the perfect opportunity to make something cookies and cream with them!  It was funny, because I had the unopened package sitting in the cupboard and […]

Vegan Vanilla Berry Rose Doughnuts

Since it is Valentine’s week, I am using that as an excuse to make all things pink and girly.  Yes, that includes making cards and whatnot, but desserts are part of that too.  I had already made some chocolate, so it was time to whip up something else so I have a nice variety.  I […]

Vegan Pear Spice Doughnuts with “Cream Cheese” Glaze

At one of the apple orchards that we always used to go to growing up, they always made these cinnamon sugar doughnuts that you could smell from far away because they always seemed to have the aroma venting out of the building as if to entice you to buy one.  I never did end up […]

Vegan Maple Glazed Bacon Doughnuts

I feel like so many people are obsessed with bacon.  Well, guess what?  I used to be too before I became vegan.  Well vegetarian first so the bacon was long gone by the time I went vegan because it has been a total of about 14 years since I have eaten meat.  I have tried […]

Vegan Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Doughnuts

Some of the best things in life are free.  Long runs on chilly mornings, smiles, watching beautiful sunsets, cuddling, kind words.  Also old bananas that the store gives you for free, because they can’t sell them.  One man’s trash is another man’s (well, in this case woman’s) treasure.  Over ripe bananas are baking gold!  Or […]

Vegan Turtle Doughnuts 

There is a café in St. Paul MN, that makes a famous turtle cake.  My Mom and I used to go there when I was little, just for the beautiful desserts, which I would admire through the glass, but I would always either buy the turtle cake or cheesecake.  It was decadent as all get […]

Vegan Pumpkin Doughnuts with Maple glaze

When I was little, my Mom and I used to go to a local bakery and get doughnuts every once in a while.  My favorite were these ones with maple glaze.  They were sooo good!  I haven’t had one since I was probably 10 years old, but I still remember exactly how they tasted, and […]

Vegan Strawberries and Cream Doughnuts

When I was little I was a big Strawberry Shortcake fan.  As in the popular cute kids TV character with her own show.  My Grandma had taped the episodes for me and I would watch them over and over again.  If you never watched the show, Strawberry Shortcake was the main character and she had […]

Vegan Fluffernutter Doughnuts

I have been wanting to make doughnuts again for a few weeks now, and then when I finally got around to it I could not decide on a flavor.  You see, there are so many different possibilities, all of which sounded amazing.  So whenever I have a problem like that I talk to Eric and […]

Vegan Double Berry Lemon Doughnuts

Ever since I made my German Chocolate Doughnuts last week with my new pan, I have been wanting to make more doughnuts.  Something about the idea of baking healthier doughnuts is pretty amazing in my mind.  I guess because I have never had a doughnut pan before.  So anyways, I got these beautiful berries on sale […]

Vegan German Chocolate Doughnuts

I never turned down a doughnut when I was younger. I mean come on…who doesn’t think they are delicious?!  But when I started to eat healthier as I got older I didn’t enjoy any knowing what is in most of the commercially made ones. I didn’t really miss them or crave them, but I have […]

Raw Strawberries and Cream Doughnuts

I have been all about the strawberries lately. Mostly because I have been missing them all winter and suddenly they reappear looking so delicious and begging me to buy them and make something delicious with them.  I was going to make some strawberries and cream scones last week with some, but that didn’t work out because […]
