Naturally Sweet Vegan Treats
BLUEBERRY SWEDISH CREAM BUNS – vegan semlor-inspired buns
It’s that time of year again; Shrove Tuesday, hot on the heels of Valentine’s Day and the Lunar New Year. Of course, what we all need is more celebratory food. Filled with copious amounts of cream, ideally. Well, Swedish cream buns – or semlor – are here to cater to your sweet-toothed whims. This recipe…
VEGAN PLUM AND CHERRY CAKE – inspired by Swedish cheesecake
This cake-meets-pudding is a deliciously fruity, subtly sweet take on a Swedish classic known as ostkaka (literally ‘cheesecake’). Baked cheesecake is definitely known to be a comforting treat, but it does not have to be heavy or incredibly rich. And Swedish style cheesecakes are not ordinarily baked with fruit, nor is the classic version of…
APPLE & CHOCOLATE BREAKFAST MUFFINS – vegan, refined sugar-free, gluten-free option
Many people tell me that they are here for my recipes; some because they want to eat plant-based, some because they have an intolerance or allergy or want to cut back on this or that, for health benefits or to try something new. Some are here for inspiration and some because it is a family…

GRAIN-FREE, NATURALLY SWEET VEGAN CHOCOLATE PANCAKES (a one-bowl, easy gluten-free recipe)
As cafés and restaurants are off-limits for so many right now, those of us who love a good weekend brunch out surely miss having the option to enjoy one. Thankfully we can still enjoy a long breakfast or lazy brunch at home. And, in the case of this recipe, all it takes is one bowl,…
CARAMELISED FIG SKILLET PIZZA-STYLE PANCAKES + farewell to this blog + a journey from an anonymous food blog to cookbook, part 1
It is with a very sentimental and somewhat heavy heart that I announce the impending closure of this particular blog chapter. Unless you’ve shared the good, bad and everything in between via a blog before, you probably cannot understand the attachment I have to a place that has given me the ability to connect, express…
