17.01.2022 Bakemas has started yallllllll - Vegan style My neighborino @likeavegan popped over on the weekend to get into some serious baking. We have joined forced to make this knockout plant based cake - The coconut and Raspberry cake (AND IT LOOKS LIKE SNOOOWW ) Super easy, really quick to make and the recipe is below :) Coconut and Raspberry cake 10g apple cider vinegar... 250g coconut cream 90g oil (preferably coconut oil) 1tsp vanilla 200g S R flour 180g raw caster sugar Pinch salt 1/2 cup frozen raspberries 1/2 cup moist coconut flakes Icing 150g vegan margarine 150g copha - melt / soften 150g icing sugar mixture 1tsp vanilla 1 cup moist coconut flakes Preheat oven to 170C, grease and line two 20cm baking tins 1 - Place coconut cream and apple cider vinegar into a small jug and mix well then set aside for 5 minutes until mixture has curdled. Once curdled, add the oil and vanilla then mixture until well combined. 2 - In a separate bowl mix together self raising flour, raw caster sugar and salt. In 3 batches, mix the milk mixture into the dry mix, ensuring each addition is well incorporated. Fold through the raspberries and moist coconut flakes. 3 - Evenly portion cake batter into the lined cake tins then bake on a centre rack for 30 - 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. Allow cake to cool completely on a cooling rack prior to icing. 4 - For the icing, whisk all ingredients together until a light fluffy icing is created. Generously spread the icing over the top of the cake, layer the cake and repeat until the whole cake is fully iced. Sprinkle the coconut around the cake to give the 'snow' effect.

16.01.2022 Ok, you guys really got into that raspberry fudge slice I posted so here is a through back to my Dulce de leche chocolate brownie - weekend baking maybe ? Haha 200g Butter 200g Chocolate (dark) 3/4 cup Brown sugar... 3 Eggs 2tsp Vanilla extract 1/2 cup SR flour 1/3 cup Cocoa powder 1 tin Caramelised condensed milk (or dulce de leche) * Pinch of salt 1 - Pre heat oven to 160C, and spray a square brownie tray with non stick spray and line with parchment paper. 2 - In a microwave safe bowl, melt butter and chocolate in the microwave on 30 second burst until melted. Once slightly cooled, whisk in the eggs, sugar and vanilla until evenly mixed through. finally, mix in the self raising flour and cocoa powder ensuring there is no remaining lumps. 4 - Spoon dollops of caramelised condensed milk around tray then cover with the brownie batter 5 - Bake in oven for 35 minutes then cool in the fridge until set. *If you cannot locate caramelised condensed milk or dulce de leche you can simply make it by placing an unopened can of condensed milk in simmering water for 3 hours. Over the 3 hours, the condensed milk will slowly caramelise.

15.01.2022 Vegan Sausage Rolls!!! FriYAY this week is allllll about the vegan goodies. Again, this recipe is super simple and honetly has me questioning if these are even vegan. MAKE SURE YOU TRY THESEEEEEE YUM. Vegan Sausage Rolls 200g Roasted sweet potato 100g Silken Tofu... 1/4 cup Wallnuts 1/2 cup Brown rice cooked 1/2 Brown onion, rough dice 1/2 cup Sage and onion mix 3 sheets Puff pastry (Vegan) Wash Plant milk Nigella seeds (or poppy seeds) Preheat oven to 200C Place all ingredient besides the pastry into a processor then process until a rough mixture is formed (should resemble the texture of ground mince) Cut the puff pastry sheet down the centre to create two rectangles. On the short edge of the rectangle, spoon your filling along the edge. Roll up to enclose filling then continue with remainder of the pastry. Cut each sausage roll log into thirds then place onto a baking tray seam side down. Brush with plant milk then sprinkle with nigella seeds. Bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until sausage rolls are golden brown. Serve warm with condiment of your choice. YUMMMMMMMMMMMM @megannevans.photography

10.01.2022 Vegan recipe, coconut scones . Honestly, the first time I made these scones I stood there in shock. The combination of the delicate scone with the hint of coconut is a winner in my eyes. Recipe:... 3 cups Self raising flour 1 cup Coconut cream 1 cup Lemonade 3tbsp Plant milk Pre heat oven to 200C Sift self raising flour into a large mixing bowl. In a seperate bowl mix together the coconut cream and lemonade then, pour over the sifted flour. Using a butter knife, mix the ingredients until the scone dough comes together then turn out on to a lightly floured work bench then very lightly knead the dough for about 2/3 turns or until it just comes together. Roll dough into a large 3cm thick round then using a 5cm ring cutter, cut out scones (should make approximately 10 to 12 scones. Place scones onto a baking tray just touching on each side, brush scones with plant milk then into the oven for 15 minutes or until golden. Serve with some whipped coconut cream and some your favourite jam. @megannevans.photography

Add the Guinness and cream then whisk. * In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar and cocoa powder. Once the butter mixture is cooled, whisk in the eggs then slowly incorporate the wet mixture with the dry. * Bake in the oven for 45 to 50 minutes or until a skewer can be inserted and removed without any cake batter attached. * Allow the cake to cool before icing. * To make the icing, whisk both ingredients in a bowl until a light fluffy well incorporated icing is made. Once the icing is nice and smooth, ice the top of the cake generously with the icing. * @ Channel 10

I used 1 tbs each of cinnamon and cardamom however you can add spices like nutmeg and clove. Pumpkin seeks or crushed walnuts to sprinkle on top 1. Pre heat oven to 170C 2. Cut pumpkin into 1 cm cubes and place onto a baking paper lined roasting tray. Give the pumpkin a light oiling then place into the oven for 20 minutes or until soft - try not to colour the pumpkin. remove pumpkin from the oven then using a masher puree the pumpkin then set aside. 3. Place sugar, salt, vanilla and eggs into a bowl then mix to combine. Add the olive oil and pumpkin then mix well. Finally, add the flour and spices then mix until no lumps remain. 4. Place into a lined bread tin then bake for 50-60 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centre of the bread comes out clean. 5. Let the bread cool for a few hours before slicing because otherwise it will crumble and not be as moist.
