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 Matcha Vanilla Cake with White Chocolate Frosting
For my Birthday this year I decided to make my own cake despite being a bit busy, and that is why it has taken me a while to type up the recipe. I have been busy planning my wedding and I just moved a few weeks ago, and this was actually the first item I […]
Vegan Matcha White Chocolate Filled Eggs
I love making Easter candy! One of my favorites has always been filled chocolate eggs. This year I made some raspberry ones, and some caramel, and also some with a matcha white chocolate filling earlier this week! I had enjoyed a white chocolate matcha latte recently and I decided that it would make a heavenly […]
Vegan Strawberry Matcha Chocolate Bars
It has been feeling like spring here in Minnesota, so I am in the mood for spring colors and flavors. I am so ready to put away the heavy winter clothes and bring out the fun spring wardrobe! But I know the weather can turn on a dime so it will still be […]
Vegan Matcha Chocolate Bars with Cacao Nibs
St. Patrick’s Day is tomorrow, and although it doesn’t feel so much like it this year due to the virus going around and events being cancelled, I still like to enjoy some festive stuff at home so I made some green chocolate bars! I like to try to stay positive. And even if we can’t […]
Vegan Matcha Waffles
I am obsessed with matcha tea. I drink it every day at work in chilled form unadorned, and on the weekends I like to enjoy a matcha latte at a coffee shop. It is my treat lately since I usually make stuff like that at home, but I do enjoy when someone else makes it […]
Matcha Coconut Easter Nests
I love making Easter candy, and so when my Mom asked if I could make some white chocolate macaroon Easter nests I was all for it! I remember people always used to make them back in the day (they probably still do but I am out of the “normal” non-vegan food loop), and they were […]
Vegan Matcha Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cookies
Much of the time I get inspired for recipes by finding random ingredients at the store. Like last weekend I found a bag of pistachios at Aldi for a really good price and I decided that they would be amazing in some chocolate chip cookies. Everyone uses walnuts mostly in theirs if they use nuts […]
Vegan Matcha Mint Hemp Truffles
You would think that I would be sick of treats from Christmas, but I am not. In fact, I still am in the mood for delicious treats, especially of the chocolate variety. The Holidays are not technically over after all, so why not make more?! Raw Guru recently sent me some Rawmio dark chocolate bars […]
Matcha Mint Chocolate Chip Energy Bites
It is in the single digits here in Minnesota. When I went to yesterday morning it was -5F degrees. Which kind of feels like a shock right now because it has been in the 30s and 20s lately and that feels pretty warm compared to this. I like to go outside and soak up the […]
Vegan Matcha White Chocolate Tiramisu Cake
Tiramisu was an exciting dessert to me the first time I tried it in an Italian restaurant. I was on vacation with my Mom up in Duluth when I was in high school, and since we were on vacation, we decided to order dessert (which we didn’t normally do on a regular basis). It was so […]
Vegan Matcha Mint Chip Ice Cream
There is nothing more refreshing to me than mint lately. My favorite thing to do after a workout or being in the hot sun is to take a bath with peppermint oil, or use my home made peppermint body spray after. It is so cooling and it smells amazing. Another favorite refreshing thing, iced matcha […]
Vegan Matcha Chocolate Chip Pancakes
What do you make for dinner on a rainy day when you need a mood booster? Pancakes. At least that is what I made. Colorful pancakes, because those are fun right?! Well, I was just in a matcha sort of mood, so I made matcha chocolate chip pancakes to share with Eric, because he is […]
Vegan Green Tea Strawberry Rhubarb Cupcakes
Did your Grandma ever make jam? Or did she have friends that did who shared it with you? Well mine did, and let me tell you, that jam was some of the best I have ever eaten. I mean really, most store bought jam just doesn’t compare to home made. So, I was thinking about […]
Coconut Matcha Mint Mousse with Berries
I am not a coffee drinker, but I do love a good matcha latte once in a while. I was thinking about how good it is to top off your matcha latte with coconut cream, and I decided that making a coconut matcha mousse was a good idea. I had some fresh berries, and I […]
White Chocolate Matcha Hemp Eggs
I am on an Easter candy making kick. It is really quite fun, and of course you get to enjoy a delicious end product and maybe share it with others if it is good enough. I made some last night that was just that. Delicious. But not what you would expect. I love my hemp […]
Matcha Almond Fig Overnight Oats
I got my hands on some gorgeous figs, and although I enjoyed some plain, some made it into my breakfast as well. I have been making special variations of overnight oats on the weekend. During the week I am pretty boring, just the same old spices that are cheap and quick. But on the […]
Vegan Matcha Raspberry Meringues
With all of the vegan meringues that have been popping up lately on social media I had to try my hand at making some. I admit that these types of things have always intimidated me a bit, especially macarons which I used to love before I stopped eating animal products. Funny because I like […]
Raw Fudgy Matcha Mint Brownies
Matcha makes me happy. That happy color along with the earthy aroma and flavor is something that I love. I have always been a green tea fan, ever since I was young which is odd because I didn’t always like other types of tea, just green. I knew I enjoyed drinking a warm cup of it, and […]
Raw Matcha Almond Tart with Berries
The weather here has been glorious lately. Waking up to about 45 degrees, running in the cool morning air, taking in the aroma of the few spring blossoms that have decided to start blooming and listening to the song of the excited birds is pretty amazing in the morning. Then in the afternoon it is […]
Raw Green Tea Ice Cream with Strawberry Swirl
When I was enjoying a cup of warm matcha recently, I admired the lovely green color in my mug and I thought, how lovely would it be to make a matcha ice cream with a strawberry swirl? The green contrasting the red, and the earthy matcha paired with the sweet berries. I had to make […]
Raw Matcha Coconut Cream Pie
Matcha coconut lattes are amazing, and one of my favorite warm drinks lately. If I want something a bit jazzier than tea since I don’t drink coffee they do the trick. The sweet flavor of the coconut along with the earthy matcha is simply heavenly! Which got me to thinking, a coconut cream pie with […]
Raw Green Tea Almond Raspberry Granola
My Mom drinks green tea every day, and she loves my granola for breakfast. So I thought I would create a recipe for her that combined two of the things she loves. Plus, I am a fan of granola myself and I can not resist anything with matcha in it lately. It has found its […]
Vegan Matcha Pear White Chocolate Layer Cake (gluten free)
I love everything about matcha. Its earthy aroma and flavor, its beautiful green color, and how wonderful it goes with sweet things. Although I am perfectly happy with my matcha lattes, I am a big fan of allowing it to be the star in other things as well. Some of my favorite things to pair […]
Vegan Matcha White Chocolates
I have a thing for matcha lately. Whether it is my cup of mid-morning matcha at work or a smoothie or some chia breakfast porridge, I love the stuff. Everything about it is appealing to me, from its beautiful green hue to its earthy addictive aroma and flavor. I love it in desserts paired with sweet […]
