Inspired by Mexican Week on Season 13 of The Great British Baking Show, we set out to put our own spin on Mexican pan dulce. Rose conchas were the result: with sweet rose craquelin topping and fluffy bread, they are fun to look at and eat. Craquelin is a crispy pastry topping that elevates these […]
These twice-baked banana almond biscotti are flavorful, crunchy, and simply delightful. They can be dunked in milk or tea to make a great afternoon snack or a quick breakfast. Or eat them on their own for dessert — I won’t tell. Making banana almond biscotti may seem challenging, but I promise it’s easier than you […]
Dried fruit & nut loaf is a great recipe to have in your breakfast repertoire. On days when you don’t want to go all out with pancake bombs and you want something a little healthier than chocolate and cranberry scones, this reliable vegan loaf is the way to go. It packs a lot of punches. […]
Summer is here in full force, which means it’s time to bring out all the mango dishes in our repertoire! You can add blended mango into lassi, put cooked puree in mango buns (like I did in my Vegan Mango-Filled Buns), eat it plain of course, and now with this recipe, add diced mango to […]
Picture this: pockets of sweet cooked mango enveloped in soft challah bread buns. That’s vegan mango-filled buns in a nutshell! They’re light and flavorful and such a treat. While they are a bit of a project, I think they are exciting to make and the end result is well worth it. Your friends and family […]

These cookies bring the best of both worlds, not to mention they’re purple! And naturally vegan! Vegan blueberry cardamom cookies are so inventive and fun to make. Additionally, with only seven ingredients […]
Chocolate and oranges are a match made in heaven. All the fancy Belgian chocolatiers know it. While I may not be a fancy Belgian chocolatier, I share this sentiment. And why make a basic layer cake when there are better options for using two colors of batters? Zebra cake is much more fun. You can […]
One of our favorite things about the holidays is how many baked goods they feature. From pecan pie to cinnamon swirl bread, there are tons of options to satisfy your sweet tooth. Although the season might be winding down now, our love for these baked treats certainly isn’t. Which is why, today, we have a […]
Even though I love most kinds of pie, I was skeptical of pecan pie for quite a long time. It just looked brown and bland and uninteresting to me. That was until I tried making it myself. Now I’m happy to report that pecan pie is a holiday staple worth indulging in. It’s got deep […]
I’m back with another banana recipe! This time, it’s banana nut muffins. They’re soft, moist, and full of flavor thanks to the bananas and butter inside. Actually, it’s butter made into ghee that contributes to how rich these muffins taste. And even richer still are my favorite parts of these banana nut muffins: their tops. […]
