Carrot-Praline Cake (or Cupcakes)
With all the excitement of participating in the Vegan Month of Food, I sort of forgot to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Vegangela.com. Working on this blog has been such an enriching experience for me – and even if I were to stop blogging tomorrow, I know that my life has been forever changed by the incredible … Read more
Gluten-Free Chocolate Banana Muffins
I realized today that I had two very ripe bananas that I needed to use ASAP. With the price of bananas in Sydney hovering around $13/kilo at the moment, there’s no way that any banana in this house can go to waste. Being a temporary ex-pat, I have limited kitchen supplies. I don’t own a … Read more
Peanut Butter & Jelly Bars
When I came across this recipe over at Vegan Good Things back in May, I very swiftly bookmarked it. Anything with peanut butter in it is pretty much awesome in my books. But PB&J? That’s even better. I never thought that it would take me this long to get around to making this recipe, but … Read more
Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are the chocolate chip cookies that my mom made for me growing up – and it’s also one of the first recipes that I ever veganized, waaaaay back in high school. At the time, I susbstituted vegan margarine for the butter, and because the recipe didn’t call for any milk or eggs, it was … Read more
Rhubarb Crumble / Crisp & Ginger Ice Cream
This vegan rhubarb crumble and ginger ice cream recipe is another one that originated from the LCBO’s Food & Wine magazine. I earmarked the recipe a while ago in the hopes of eventually veganizing it, and I’m really happy that I finally got around to doing it last week. The ginger ice cream nicely compliments … Read more
Apple & Plum Crumble / Crisp
As you may have read in my Roasted Fresh Tomato Soup post, I’ve been going a little overboard at the farmers’ market lately. I never used to make the effort to get up early and go to farmer’s markets, but I have to say that it has since become something that I really look forward … Read more
Macadamia Macaroons
I really love the healthy truffles that I discovered a couple weeks ago but when I went to make them yesterday, I realized that I didn’t have enough walnuts, pecans, or almonds to make them. I did however have a lot of desiccated coconut and really felt like something “coconut-y”. Hmm – I wonder what … Read more
Everyday Healthy Truffles
These everyday healthy truffles are a sweet treat without the guilt. While I make some pretty awesome vegan truffles, they’re a little bit of a mess to put together and certainly not something you’d want to eat everyday. However, these little guys are full of healthy ingredients and they’re super easy to make. If you … Read more
Healthy Breakfast Cookies
I’m always on the lookout for healthy cookie recipes, and was inspired by this one that I found on About.com. I’ve made these healthy breakfast cookies a couple times now, and have modified the recipe a bit each time to get it just right. These are not delicate cookies. They’re dense little fellows… I’m pretty … Read more
Blueberry Macadamia Crumble / Crisp
There’s just something about blueberries, lemon, and vanilla that tastes and smells so divine. It’s the perfect combination of sweet and tart. I’d wear this blueberry macadamia crumble as perfume if I could! Fruit crisps are some of my favorite desserts. They’re just as delicious and comforting as fruit pies, without all the effort of … Read more
Wholewheat Pineapple Carrot Muffins
These wholewheat pineapple carrot muffins are perfectly fluffy and delicious. The recipe yields 10 regular sized muffins, which can be made ahead as they’re freezer-friendly. This is a recipe that my mom made for us growing up and I always loved how moist and delicious these muffins were. There’s something about the pineapple/carrot combo that is … Read more
Vegan Chocolate Truffle Torte
This vegan chocolate truffle torte is the most luxurious dessert that I make. It’s definitely not an everyday dessert, but something that I reserve for special occasions a few times a year. It easily holds-up to any non-vegan dessert served at fancy restaurants. It’s extremely rich, so you only need to serve a small piece, and … Read more
Caramel Apple Muffins
These caramel apple muffins are one of my favorite vegan muffin recipes. The crumbly, sugary topping makes them taste like gooey caramel apples — minus the sticky fingers and face! You could leave out the topping to make these a bit healthier, but it really adds a great taste and texture to these muffins. Go … Read more
