Yeasted Banana Bread

When overripe bananas have overstayed their welcome on the kitchen counter, I instinctually make banana bread. This vegan banana yeasted bread isn’t what you’re used to. It’s a classic yeast bread with bananas inside, giving it a wonderful mild banana flavour. A must try for any ripe banana’s lying around!

Growing up, my mother used to make bread from scratch. It was the most amazing smell in the entire world to walk into my house after school and smell the aroma of freshly made bread. I’ve always wanted to make banana bread with a texture like bread rather than cake. However, I have not been able to find a recipe that I was happy with. We happened to have some ripe banana and I used them as an experiment. This recipe is highly recommended as the bread is soft like cotton and the few pieces we had left were still soft on the second day.

My mind saw and expected one taste but I got a completely new taste. The flavour of this banana yeasted bread isn’t as strong on regular banana bread, but it is quite delicious. I'm happy that the experiment turned out well and I got a bread rather than a cake! While your standard banana bread is basically a cake, this yeasted banana bread is actually a slightly sweet sandwich bread

Aquafaba Chickpea Nuggets

I used to love chicken nuggets before I became plant-based. But these vegan aquafaba chickpea nuggets are sooo much better for you, are full of protein and are all 100 % cruelty-free! They’re coated with a crust of panko bread crumbs, which makes them super crispy when baked! They are super easy to make and are freaking yummy. If you love chicken nuggets but need a healthier, unprocessed vegan version, these are for you.

Toasting the panko breadcrumbs before coating the nuggets gives the chickpea nuggets a richer hue, but also adds flavour and loads of crunchy texture. This single step gives the illusion of chicken nuggets instead of chickpea nuggets. The recipe is super easy and ready in about 30 minutes. And the baking time makes up most of the preparation time.

Chocolate Caramel Crunch Bars

Let's give a huge shout out to these vegan chocolate caramel crunch bars. The crunchy bottom layer is filled with lots of peanut butter with rice puffs, the second layer is a date caramel layer and the top layer is a chocolate layer. Seriously, it's kinda strange how much these actually taste like the real deal. It’s sweet and has just the right colour of caramel and makes the perfect dessert. They remind me of a vegan twix bar. Caramel, chocolate and cookie bottom layer. Perfect for the holidays, halloween, or just any old regular weekend.

When you bite in to these squares all three layers together come together just right. That first bite tastes like heaven! And the best part about these bars is that you only require a few pure ingredients to make them and with so much flava. They are super rich and these satisfied that craving in such an easy way!

These vegan caramel crunch bars are one of my favourite creations so far this year! So here you have these no bake bars. Omg, that bite. The texture. The crispy crunch. Sometimes I crave a snack that delivers that thick texture I can sink my teeth into.
