Savour the sunny taste of summer with zesty vegan lemon bars! With a buttery crust crafted from almond flour and coconut oil, it is topped with a velvety filling that's both tangy and tantalising.
Instead of eggs, go for the creamy goodness of silken tofu as the filling and mix it with lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch, and a dash of salt until smooth. Pour this mixture onto the crust and bake in the oven until perfectly set. Chill in the fridge before slicing these sunshiney bars of perfection.
If you're a fan of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups then you'll love this homemade vegan version that's even better!
Start by melting dairy-free chocolate chips and coconut oil and spoon the mixture into muffin cups lined with paper liners. Freeze them for 10 minutes and add a spoonful dollop of peanut butter mixed with powdered sugar on the top of each chocolate cup base. Freeze for another 10 minutes for a quick set between layers and bam! You've got yourself a delicious batch of plant-based treats that's perfect for lunchboxes or satisfying afternoon cravings.
Banana bread is a beloved classic comfort food and now you can give it a healthy makeover without compromising on taste. No eggs? No problem! Mashed bananas or applesauce can act as a perfect binder for the batter. But that's not all — we're kicking it up a notch by opting for whole wheat flour — packing in extra fibre.
To start, mash up ripe bananas and mix them with sugar, oil, vanilla extract, and a splash of almond milk. Then, gently fold the whole wheat flour and baking soda until everything is nicely combined. Pop it in the oven until golden brown, and soon enough, your kitchen will be filled with the irresistible aroma of freshly baked banana bread.
It’s time to move over the traditional cheesecake! This vegan showstopper uses creamy cashews instead of dairy and gets its stunning green hue from matcha, a type of green tea that's become popular in recent years for its earthy flavour and health benefits.
Let your cashews soak overnight, to ensure they're perfectly creamy when blended. Combine them with coconut cream, a drizzle of maple syrup for sweetness, some lemon juice for tang, and a hint of vanilla extract. And of course, don't forget the star ingredient — matcha powder.
For the crust, blend dates and nuts until they form a sticky, textured base that perfectly complements the creamy filling. Once assembled, let your creation chill in the fridge until it sets, ready to be admired and devoured!
Who doesn't like freshly baked chocolate chip cookies straight out of the oven? We do! And guess what? Now, these delicious treats can be totally vegan too.
Swap out regular butter for coconut oil and replace normal eggs with flax eggs — a simple blend of ground flaxseed and water that works wonders as a binder.
Combine them with flour, baking soda, a pinch of salt, sugar, a hint of vanilla extract, and of course, an abundance of dairy-free chocolate chips. Mix it all together until you've got a dough that's practically begging to be baked. Bake until golden brown and get ready for the ultimate warm, gooey cookie experience!
Vegan desserts are a delightful win-win: scrumptious and super simple to make. They are a testament to the fact that you don't need dairy to create a truly indulgent dessert experience. Plus, these treats are made with everyday ingredients, so there's no need for a shopping spree. So why not give them a try? Your taste buds (and maybe even your waistline) will thank you
