25.01.2022 Carrot cake anyone?! This Vegan Carrot Cake by @tmdraeger Is also gluten free A perfect excuse to cuddle up with a cup of tea and a slice of cake! 3 batches flax egg (3 Tbsp flaxseed meal + 7 Tbsp water as original recipe is written)... 1/3 cup melted coconut oil* (or sub other neutral oil) 1/4 cup maple syrup 1 scant cup unsweetened applesauce 1/2 cup organic brown sugar* (or sub coconut sugar) 1/4 cup cane sugar* (or sub coconut sugar) 3/4 tsp sea salt 1 1/2 tsp baking soda 1 1/2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp ground cinnamon 3/4 - 1 cup plain unsweetened almond milk* (or other non-dairy unsweetened milk) 1 1 /2 cups loosely packed grated carrot 1 1/2 cups almond flour* 1 1/2 cups gluten-free flour blend* 3/4 cup chopped raw walnuts* (if preferred, omit, or sub 1/2 cup (70 g) raisins) Instructions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C). Butter and flour two 8-inch, 1 9x13-inch, or 3 6-inch round pans with coconut oil or vegan cooking spray and dust with gluten-free flour (adjust number/size of pans if altering batch size). Shake out excess. Set aside. Prepare flax eggs in a large mixing bowl. To flax eggs, add oil and maple syrup and whisk to combine. Next, add applesauce, sugars, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon and whisk to combine. Add lesser amount of almond milk (3/4 cup or 180 ml as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size) and stir. Add grated carrot and stir. Then add almond flour and gluten-free flour blend and stir. The batter should be thick but pourable. If too thick, add remaining almond milk 1/4 cup or 60 ml as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size). If adding walnuts, add at this time and stir. Divide evenly among cake pan(s). Bake for 40-50 minutes or until deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. When you press on the top, it shouldnt feel too spongy, so dont be afraid of over-baking! The gluten-free blend just takes a little longer to bake. Also, note that the size of pan you use will vary baking time. Remove from oven and let rest in the pans for 15 minutes. Then carefully run a knife along the edges and gently invert onto cooling

22.01.2022 Recipe for the weekend: Lemon Pepper Cauliflower Bites with Sweet Tahini Ranch! Thank you @saratane for this delish recipe! Recipe: 3/4 cup almond milk 2 lemons, zested and juiced... 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon Simply Organic Cayenne Pepper 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste 1 head cauliflower, cut into 1-inch florets Vegetable oil, for frying FOR THE SWEET TAHINI RANCH INGREDIENTS 1/4 cup tahini 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil 1 lemon, juiced 1 tablespoon maple syrup 1 tablespoon Garlic Powder 2 teaspoons Onion Powder 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill Kosher salt, to taste MAKE THE CAULIFLOWER BITES METHOD: STEP 1 In a small bowl, whisk almond milk and juice of 2 lemons. Let sit for at least 10 minutes. In a separate small bowl, combine flour and cayenne. Set aside. STEP 2 In a third small bowl, combine panko, breadcrumbs, zest of 2 lemons, black pepper and 1 teaspoon salt. STEP 3 Dredge each cauliflower floret in the almond milk mixture, then flour mixture (tapping off any excess flour), then return to almond milk mixture again and finish in breadcrumb mixture. Transfer to a baking sheet and let florets chill uncovered in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes. STEP 4 Meanwhile, make the sweet tahini ranch: In a medium bowl, whisk all ingredients and 2 tablespoons cold water (or more, depending on desired consistency). Keep in refrigerator until ready to serve. STEP 5 Heat 2-inches oil in a large Dutch oven until a thermometer submerged in oil registers 350F. Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, add breaded florets to oil. Cook until florets are browned and crisp, about 6 minutes. The temperature of the oil should not fall below 325F. Remove florets from oil with a fine wire mesh ladle drain in a single layer on paper towels. Season with salt and serve with sweet tahini ranch immediately.

19.01.2022 Vegan egg substitutes! There are so many ways to enjoy egg based meals and recreate your favourite flavours in a cruelty free way! What is your favourite substitute? : @vegan

19.01.2022 Today is World Plant Milk Day!What is your preferred plant milk? From almond, soy, coconut, oat and cashew to pea, hemp, rice and peanut milk, the diversity of vegan milks continues to grow. In Australia, the plant-based milk category has grown by 58 percent in just two years, with 1 in 6 Australians going dairy free. There are so many positive impacts switching to plant based milk! Here are a few:... Avoid causing suffering to animals: The dairy industry is a cause of immeasurable stress to cows. Due to the enormous volume of milk production, dairy cows must endure uncomfortable and stressful conditions that do not meet even their most basic needs. Switching to plant-based milk means that you are no longer part of this unnecessary suffering. Better for the planet: Animal agriculture is one of the leading causes of climate change, species extinction, loss of fresh water, rainforest destruction and air and water pollution. Switching from dairy to plant-based milk is one of the ways in which you can significantly reduce your impact on the planet. Better for you: Research consistently shows that a whole food plant based diet, including plant milk, is good for your health. Such a diet can help prevent hypertension, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and some kinds of cancer. You don't need dairy milk to be healthy. In fact, only one third of people produce the lactase enzyme which enables them to digest milk during adulthood. Humans are the only animal who regularly and intentionally consumes milk into adulthood - the milk of another species at that. Better for people: The land used for growing crops to feed to animals in order to produce dairy milk is far larger than the land used to grow the crops used for plant-based milks. Reduced land use means that there is more land available to grow crops for people rather than farmed animals. Thanks to @vegan + @plantbasednews for the graphics + info!

18.01.2022 We’re veganising UN World Egg Day to World Egg Free Day because we want to focus on putting the chicken before the egg The egg industry is a cruel, unethical industry that exploits chickens and hens, as well as contributes to the destruction of our planet. Take the small steps and make positive change, starting with what we put on our plates!

18.01.2022 Did you know October is Vegan Cheese Month? This month we’re encouraging you to hop onto the vegan cheese bandwagon and say bye bye to dairy for good! Vegan cheese has never been so good . Why? Firstly, Dairy is just cruel. There’s no way around it. Cows are forcefully impregnated on a regular basis in order to keep producing milk. Their babies are taken away from them, often within 24 hours, so that we can have that milk. Male calves born at dairy farms are considered to... be waste products by the dairy industry and are treated as such. Once no longer producing enough milk to be ‘profitible’, cows are sent on trucks to slaughter, often many, many miles away. Usually at about age 4, when their natural life span is 20 years. This happens on most dairy farms whether they are free range, organic or factory farms. We could go on... Remember: she makes milk because she is a mother, not because she is a cow! See more

16.01.2022 Ohh yes how good does this Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie by @chocolatecoveredkatie look?! A perfect treat to whip up for your father for Fathers Day! Sending love to all fathers out there! . . Recipe Ingredients 2 cans garbanzo or white beans (500g once drained)... 1 cup quick oats, OR 3/4 cup flour or almond meal 1/4 cup applesauce, pumpkin, or vegan yogurt, such as almond milk yogurt 3 tbsp oil OR 1/4 cup nut butter of choice 2 tsp pure vanilla extract 1/2 tsp baking soda 2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 cup vegan nutella-style spread or chocolate spread of choice 1 1/3 cup sugar or xylitol, unrefined if desired (many readers say liquid sweetener works) 1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips, or more if desired Instructions Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a 9 or 10-inch springform, and set aside. Drain and rinse the beans extremely well. This is important. Combine all ingredients except the chocolate spread and chips in a food processor until completely smooth. (Although I havent tried and so cant vouch for the texture, many readers say theyve gotten good results with a blender.) Pour half the batter into the springform. If not already thin, gently heat the chocolate spread until runny. Swirl over the batter as evenly as possible, getting up to the edges. (See image.) Spread remaining batter on top, then sprinkle on chocolate chips. Bake on the center rack 35 minutes. Let cool at least ten minutes before removing the springform. The pie will be firm enough to slice, and the texture will be reminiscent of unbaked cookie dough! Refrigerate leftovers 3-4 days. Enjoy! See more

Yum! - Roast pumpkin soup with blue cheese croutons . Did you know the trick to making ridiculously good pumpkin soup is ROASTING the pumpkin?! It intensifies its flavour, makes the soup a lot sweeter and more complex. Pumpkin soup made just on the stovetop just doesn't compare, I'm sorry!

Arrange the pumpkin on a lined baking tray and drizzle with a dash of olive oil. Toss the pumpkin to coat it in oil. 3. Bake the pumpkin for 10 minutes. Add the chopped onion and unpeeled garlic to the baking tray. Bake for another 15 minutes or until the pumpkin, onion and garlic are soft and tender. Set aside. 4. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the blue cheese on the pieces of bread. Arrange the bread on the baking tray and lightly coat the bread in olive oil. Bake the bread for 10 minutes or until crisp. 5. Crumble or cut the remaining cheese into small cubes. Set aside. 6. Squeeze the garlic out of its peel and discard the peel.

02.01.2022 Weekday menu recipe: Mexican Sweet Potato Skins by @biancazapatka Who doesnt love potato boats?! Ingredients Sweet Potato Skins 4-5 medium sweet potatoes... 1 tbsp oil 1 onion finely diced 2 cloves of garlic minced red bell paprika (100g) finely chopped 1 14 oz can black beans rinsed and drained 1 14 oz can corn rinsed and drained 3-4 tbsp salsa sauce or to taste (optional) salt and pepper to taste pinch of chili optional 1 cup non-dairy cheese (120g) shredded To serve (optional) fresh parsley or cilantro roughly chopped scallions sliced squeeze of lime juice Instructions Sweet Potato Skins (see step-by-step pictures in the text above) Preheat oven to to 430F (220C) and lightly grease a baking sheet. Pierce sweet potatoes a few times with a fork. Arrange them on the tray and roast for about 40-50 minutes, or until tender. (Smaller sized sweet potatoes are cooked through faster, so pierce with a fork after 40 minutes to check, and continue roasting, if needed until soft). Quick version: Optionally, you can wrap the pierced sweet potato in a kitchen towel and microwave for 10 minutes until soft. While sweet potatoes are baking, heat the oil in a pan. Add the onions and bell pepper and sauté until roasted and softened, about 3-5 minutes. Add the garlic and roast for a further minute until fragrant. Sprinkle with salt, pepper or other seasonings to taste. Set aside. When sweet potatoes are fork-tender remove from the oven. Let cool for 5 minutes, or until cool enough to handle. Cut them in half and scoop out the flesh with a spoon, leaving a thin layer of potato inside of the skins. Mash the soft flesh, add roasted onion mixture, beans, corn, salsa and mix to combine. Brush the sides of your sweet potato skins with a tiny bit of oil. Scoop the filling inside and sprinkle over non-dairy cheese Bake for about 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve with fresh parsley, sliced scallions and lemon slices + your fav dipping sauce or guacamole! Enjoy
