Double Chocolate Chip Almond Flour Cookies (V+GF)
I forgot how weird it is when the days start staying light so late. Where we live is pretty far North so the sun doesn’t set right now until nearly 9 pm and it’s not completely dark until about 10 pm. It’s kind of bitter-sweet to me because I’m not a night owl, but I to enjoy a tiny bit of nighttime. As it is the days are nearly long enough that I have to wait up to go to bed. Honestly, I’m sometimes an old lady when it comes to bedtime. I really love how I feel when I’m on an earlier schedule and it’s something I’ve never had to try to…

Basic Homemade Peanut Butter Cups (V+GF)
Happy Independence day to all my Stateside friends and happy Wednesday to everyone. So this recipe has nothing to do with today’s celebrations except that it’s great for every occasion. Also, it falls under all of the following categories; “reinventing-the-wheel”, “why-fix-what-ain’t-broke”,”seen-it-a-thousand-times”, and “can’t-you-just-buy-that?”. I’m well aware of this, don’t worry. It’s just, sometimes you need to overwrite all of these things in the name of getting in the kitchen and creating. Also, this version of a Reese’s copycat is going to be way healthier than the packaged variety. I mean, it’s only made with a few ingredients, it’s gluten free, dairy free, and vegan. Besides, I think you can even set all…

Chocolate & Coconut Pumpkin Brownies
It’s been a while since I shared a brownie recipe hasn’t it? Well, it’s time to change that for sure. I was scrolling through some of my really old recipes the other day and realizing that I’ve never made a completely vegan brownie. I’ve tried tons of variations but I don’t think I’ve ever taken on the challenge of creating a good one before. For these I used some pumpkin for texture and to help keep them on the healthier side of things. I know, you’re probably like “How could you defile a perfectly good browine with veggies!” :O Honestly though, these might surprise you by how good they are without a ton…

Simple Nuts & Seeds Muesli Cereal
I found a new favorite thing guys! Do I say that a lot? I think I say that a lot. You’ve probably at least heard me obsess about granola right? Well, muesli is basically the close cousin of granola but it’s just a little different. The first time I heard of museli I just didn’t get it. I know for sure I didn’t even know how to say it right and I couldn’t figure out the difference between it and granola. So whats really cool about muesli is that it’s even simpler to make than granola. Granola is actually really easy so that’s saying a lot. With muesli you can choose to…

Walnut Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread (V+GF)+ Video
Sup, my friends? So I’ve gotta say, after a few weeks of traveling and being on the go so much it’s been really strange to try to get back to sharing recipes again. It’s kind of hard to explain but, regardless, I’m really happy to be back in the kitchen. I’ve been really in the mood for simple classics recently. I’ve also been really trying to come up with more balanced treats to share because I know personally I always feel better when I’m eating something that’s both nutritious AND delicious and I’m guessing you do too. On another note, I’ve been messing around with video a lot more since going to…

Crunchy Quinoa Walnut Granola (No Added Sugar)
You knew this already, but granola is totally my jam. I love the crunchy, nutty texture and the fact that everything you throw into it becomes like a beautiful piece of a delicious puzzle once it’s baked. You can mix and match flavors so that every time you make it you get a brand new thing. The things I love don’t stop there though, that’s just what you can put into granola. I didn’t even begin to cover the world of possibilities for what you can put the granola into, which is basically everything. Tell me, have you ever tried granola on a salad? Well, if not you’re missing out. Bae my friend, it’s bae.…
