White Chocolate Chai Spiced Banana Bread (Vegan)
I wish there was a way to send and share smells through the internet, don’t you? Well, since unfortunately there isn’t you’ll just have to do your best to imagine the smell of a banana bread filled with all the goodness of chai spices! Can you imagine it? Hey, or better yet, you’ll just have to go make it right now! Yeah, okay that’s definitely the best plan, but just a sec…… Before I talk more about the recipe and how easy it is I should probably have a moment of catch up for any of you following along, because even though I just shared a recipe on Wednesday, I actually haven’t written…

Pumpkin Pie French Toast & Kahlúa Vanilla Syrup (Vegan+GF)
Hey again, how were your weekends guys? Mine was pretty busy, but in a good way. Lots of cooking, obviously, because I don’t know what to do with myself otherwise. I also spent some time over this weekend doing some miscellaneous Spring cleaning things like organizing my spice cabinet. I’ve told you how they sell the spices here in these individual little pouches that are only enough to make you mad, right? It really kind of makes me crazy until I have the chance to organize like I just did. Then there was that other thing ………you know, what I mentioned Friday about my first (eh hem…….) date? Yeah, so you can probably imagine…

Meringue Frosted Butterbeer Baked Doughnuts (Vegan)
Hey, hey, hey you guys! I’ve got another nerdy one for you today! I’m pretty excited to share this one, not gonna lie. Okay, first things first; This recipe! Before I say anything I’m giving you full warning that I’m kinda, sorta…..a really big Harry Potter nerd! (Deal with it.) Hey, I can’t help that one of the situational hazards of being born in the 90’s was the HP craze, (It’s the fandom that chooses the fan. It’s not always clear why.) Did I take that too far? Feel free to throw your head back and roll your eyes at me here. Anyway, these are so much fun to make and they’re really not too…

Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Soft Pretzels (Vegan)
Hey guys, I was wondering if you were up for another major comfort food item, because I have to tell you, they’re my favorite things to share! On a sidenote; Remember me mentioning our Spanish teacher friend, well he’s getting here later today and we are all getting ready to make him feel as at home as we can while he’s staying with us. So I’ve been genuinely trying to focus on some Spanish skills recently but I kind of feel like I’m never going to get it down…..ever…..in a million and 12 years…….. I’m excited though, because Diego is going to be here now and he’s going to help me learn it,…

Chocolate Hazelnut Scones with “Nutella” Glaze (Vegan)
How about something a little bit, but not too sweet today? That’s one of the things I like most about scones, they’re really good at toeing that line between breakfast items and dessert. Come to think of it, that’s probably why you don’t feel quite so guilty enjoying them with your morning coffee and yet they also make a marvelous dessert when the occasion calls for them. I feel like I’ve said this before, but I’ve always felt like scones have sort of a bad rep for being dry and tasteless. At least, that’s how it seems to be in my circles. But you know what, I also feel like they don’t have to be.…

Old-Fashioned Vegan Buttermilk Bar Donuts
Old-Fashioned Vegan Buttermilk Bar Donuts are a favorite among many. These donuts are a nostalgic family recipe that you’re sure to love. Friday just needed something epic this week. This post is all about Old-Fashioned Vegan Buttermilk Bar Donuts These donuts were inspired by my mom constantly asking local donut shops where she could find them. I remember her getting quite fed up when she realized that they aren’t easy to find. Apparently these aren’t a recipe that most doughnut shops make anymore. Inspiration behind the recipe for Old-Fashioned Vegan Buttermilk Bar Donuts Wow, I’m so excited about sharing this recipe. All right, so Mom had been telling me about these things for…

Kiwi Mango Chia Pudding Parfaits + Stovetop Cashew Granola (Vegan + GF)
I’ve discovered that it’s pretty hard to mess up any recipe revolving around fruit and granola. In the past I’ve made chia pudding a few times but, moment of complete honesty here, the texture isn’t for everyone. Hey, but I’ve got good news if you feel the same way about it, you can blend it up like magic into a super creamy smooth pudding that you’d never guess was dairy free! When I did this I got two thumbs up from everyone, so to blend or not to blend is totally up to you. All right, the texture of chia pudding may or may not be your thing, but Stovetop granola you guys,…
