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.…

Caribbean Jerk Spiced Sweet Potato Falafel Gyros (Vegan+GF)
Hey, guess what? It’s Meatless Monday again! Okay, for all of you aren’t overly thrilled with this idea, hold on just a sec, pretty please! Really, just give these a chance and I think you’ll be surprised how good these gyros are. Plus, how can you go wrong when you stuff anything into a fresh and fluffy pita, come on? It’s almost a no-fail situation. Okay, but back to the recipe; You know, I’ve never made falafel before. I know, isn’t that dumb? I’ve tried veggie burgers and similar things, yes, but never falafel. To be honest, I didn’t even know exactly what it was even made with until I started trying different things…

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…

Cherry Vanilla Bean Soda Ice Cream Floats (Vegan+GF)
I haven’t had a float since…well forever ago. I think the last time was when I was a little kid sitting in a Sonic drive-in parking lot, my short legs dangling from our car’s backseat that was too tall to allow them to reach the floor. I probably had straight-across bangs and pigtails too if you want the whole picture. I’ve had this recipe on my list for months now and I’ve been dying to share it before summer is over. I love that you can switch out the fruit with other kinds like berries, peaches, pineapple, oranges….. Endless possibilities here. I could have chosen one of those fruits but it was too late.…
