Mini Chocolate Chip Bundt Cakes (Vegan+GF)
It’s January so we’re making things a bit healthier and tryna be be good, ya know? These adorable little cakes are perfect for a healthy treat or snack with coffee. They are simple to make and look so elegant when sprinkled with a little bit of powdered sugar. Before I get into this recipe though, can I point out something guys? So I started cooking and baking very young, I’ve been a food blogger for years, worked at restaurant for a good minute, (serving and working in the kitchen), worked in a bakery, and I’ve been vegan for about 3 years. Maybe that much familiarity with food and ingredients gives me an advantage…

Simple Cinnamon Crumb Cake (Vegan+GF)
Ok, so tell me if I’m the only one who thought this… …but I always thought coffee cake actually had coffee in it. I mean, maybe it should because that sounds delicious, but it’s also good as is with no coffee. Either way, can’t we just fix the confusion and just call it crumb cake or something? I think it’s just as good a title for this simple and classic treat. Another question; does this count as a breakfast food? Personally, I believe in a balanced approach to health and nutrition so def wouldn’t recommend having it as a regular breakfast. However, sometimes the weekends just need to start off with a little…

Spiced Sweet Potato Bread + Brown Sugar Icing (Vegan)
The decade is almost over guys! I know everyone’s posting retrospective photos, talking about goals for the next decade, and basically just wondering how it passed so quickly. Me? I’m honestly not too concerned about it. I mean, it’s exciting to be starting a new global chapter for sure. I guess I’m just not so into focusing on new year’s (or in this case new decade’s) resolutions as if that’s the only time to make big life decisions. I sort of prefer to make them on a daily basis. Besides, I’ve never been the greatest at sticking to arbitrary resolutions set out of obligation. I think if something matters to you you’ll stick…

Dark Chocolate Vegan Birthday Cake (GF)
I think it’s safe to say that chocolate cake is a major staple for special occasions, don’t you think? And if you’re going to make a chocolate cake you might as well go big or go home because a lightly chocolate cake just isn’t gonna cut it. You’ve gotta make it really dark, extra extra dark. Of course, that’s just my opinion and this is coming from someone who would happily eat 85-90% dark chocolate over milk chocolate. So my baby niece is going to be turning 1 soon and my sister and I have already been planning her party since she turned 1 month old. It’s going to be a…

Easy Cinnamon Sweet Potato Quick Bread
So I realize this post is coming at you way out of season. I’d blame it on all that time I spent living in the Southern Hem where the seasons are all switched up, but the truth is we recently got this ginormous bag of sweet potatoes and only about half of the people in my house like them. Even then, some of my family members that do like them still seem to think of them as an item reserved for eating at holidays only so that leaves only a few people to eat them. I have no problem having them all to myself basically, and this totally wouldn’t be a problem…

Blueberry Almond Streusel Crumb Muffins (Vegan+GF)
I just typed out “It’s been a muffin since I’ve shared a minute recipe.” That’s pretty much what today’s like, but you know what? It’s the weekend, we’re just gonna go with it. Speaking of that though, how did this weekend sneak up so quickly, you know what I mean? It’s nearly May already. I mean, I know they say time flies but this just feels crazy. So I got a message recently from a friend asking for a specific recipe, one that would be fitting for a some limitations that this friend was trying to stick to, such as, “no refined sugar, only maple syrup”, “no dairy”, and “only whole wheat flour”.…

Super Fluffy Chocolate Chip Easter Bunny Cake (Vegan)
Okay, I know, I know…………. moist is not the greatest adjective there is…….but can we all agree it’s really hard to find a replacement for it in situations like this when describing a cake. So I have a little secret to tell you guys. I’ve been playing with video this week! Honestly, I’ve been putting it off because, knowing myself around photography alone, I’ve always known I’d be super obsessive about perfecting it and video editing takes at least three times as long as photos. Well, I was right about the perfectionism thing but what I didn’t realize is how much fun I’d have with all the possibilities for editing and creative filming. Especially…
