Ingredients:

8 ingredients mug cake

Who doesn't like a cake that's yummy, easy to make, has few ingredients and it's actually not bad for you?
I know I do! Also, this cake is made for one so you can enjoy it all for yourself. And add a bit of vegan ice cream or silky vegan yogurt on top too, to combine a warm, fluffy cake with some cold and creamy ice cream. Dreamy combo!

Ingredients:

* 3 tbsp chickpea or pea flour

* 1 tbsp ground flax seeds

* 1 tbsp peanut butter

* 2 tsp unrefined brown sugar (add more if you like your cake sweeter)

* 1/2 tsp baking powder

* 1 tsp lemon juice

* 6 tbsp soy milk, unsweetened

* 1 pinch of salt

* 1 splash vanilla extract (optional)

3 ingredients homemade bounty bars

I love myself some chocolate from time to time, even now, when I can barely tolerate commercially sweet things... But sometimes (or a lot of times, to be honest) the commercial chocolates are not vegan friendly in addition to being full of sugar... So I decided to recreate some of my favorite sweets, but made a bit healthier and a lot simpler!

I started with these 3 ingredients homemade bounty bars that are not only vegan, but oil free, easy to make and quite a bit healthier than the commercial version. And they still have a fluffy coconut middle, yummy chocolate coating, they're rich and perfect for a treat when you want one... The danger with them? You're gonna want to eat them all in one sitting. Don't say that I didn't warn you...
Granted, because I used date paste the coconut filing is not very white and sparkly as the commercial ones are, but you can use a lighter colored sweetener if you want that white. I love my bars a bit dark because they are unique and different too, so I don't feel the need to change this:)
It's nice to know that you can make stuff like this with just a few ingredients at home. And they are very sweet for my taste right now, which means that they should be perfectly sweet for the rest of the normal people :))
Let's see the recipe now, I've rambled enough...

Ingredients (for about 12 bars):

Chocolate chip muffins (EN/ RO)

These chocolate chip muffins were actually born as a result of a evening craving... I wanted something a bit sweet, fluffy, with chocolate. And healthy.
That means that I had to make them, because I can't buy something like this anywhere near me. So, I made them. And loved them so much that I had to share them with you too.
Now, to be even healthier, I use cacao nibs, but you can use chocolate chips or chocolate chunks to make them more decadent. And from time to time, some chocolate is really good, especially for the soul, isn't it?
Oh! And do you want to know something? I had to make them 3 times in one week just to have something to photograph between the crappy weather and light and them being so delicious that they disappear fast. So I go to photograph the ugliest batch ever that I kept in the oven more than necessary (as you can already see), because I was already tired and a bit angry that I filmed and written down the recipe way before I actually needed to and I didn't had any pictures... So guys, don't bake when too tired and already irritated or angry, because you just to burn them.
Guess what though? They are delicious even if you burn them a bit 😂
Now you have to try the recipe...

Ingredients (14 to 16 "normal" muffins or 8 to 10 bigger ones):

Plum galette (EN/ RO)

I found some sweet and juicy fall plums and I was so happy and giddy about them! And why? Because I love plums and I love cooking with them too! 

This plum galette is easy to make, delicious and has no refined oil. Just healthy fats from the nut butter. And the plums are so soft and delicious after baking, almost like a jam that make a really nice contrast with the crumbly crust. 

You have to try it if you find some plums!

Ingredients (makes about 6 servings):

Delicious vanilla pear tart with a perfect coconut crust (EN/ RO)

It's already fall here. Ok, it's officially the last day of summer, but it already feels like fall. And we barely had any summer here :( 

But a tart made with fall fruits surely brings a bit of sun in our hearts. And this delicious vanilla pear tart with a coconut pastry crust it's inspired by fall but brings back a piece of summer in our hearts. 

And it's not only delicious, but oil free and gluten free, if you have any problems with gluten. 

And what's another thing that I love about this? Besides the obvious - it's delicious? It's something to make your back to school season/ start of the cold season better :)

Do you need more reasons to try this? Really? 

Let's see how I made it. And I perfected my coconut crust recipe too! 

Ingredients (makes about 6-8 servings): 

Crust:

Coconut vanilla creme caramel (EN/ RO)

As a child, my mom used to make creme caramel as a treat from time to time. I couldn't eat a lot as it was very rich, but I used to love it. And now I wanted some and I won't eat the traditional one, as it's not vegan. So I wanted a vegan version. 

I saw some vegan versions online, but I wanted to make my own, simpler, with just a few ingredients that I usually have in my pantry. And this is how I made this version, because my husband and I love coconut. And creamy desserts. 

And I have to say, I love it! It's everything a creme caramel should be: creamy, rich, sweet, with that caramel sauce on top... I love to add some berries to complement the richness and sweetness a bit. And the berries mixed with the creamy custard make such a dreamy combination! Or maybe you like to eat it just like this, without the berries, and that way is very delicious too! 

I recommend you to try both versions of this treat and let me know which one is your favorite! 

But it's enough talk... Let's go to the recipe! 

Ingredients (4-6 servings, depending on how big your moulds are):

Custard:

Caramel cinnamon rolls (EN/ RO)

These vegan and delicious caramel cinnamon rolls are easy and quite fun to make, and especially to eat while they're not in any way or for a health food. But they are delicious and deserve a try from time to time :)

And they can be healthy if you use a glaze that's not made entirely from sugar :) Maybe some cashew or coconut cream or some vegan yogurt... All of them go really well with cinnamon and all these combos are delicious too!

You don't need to believe my word, you have to try it for yourself and enjoy every bit :)

Ingredients (EN):

Dough:

Vanilla custard and summer fruits tart (EN/ RO)

Fresh summer fruits and a vanilla custard and all vegan? Oh, yes!
And that crumbly and yummy crust is just what you need to hold the tart and provide a little texture...
It sounds really good to me, even now, when I don't really crave or eat sweets, because even if it's a bit sweet it's still fresh and the vanilla custard has a nice zing from the lemon juice, and the fruits are just everything you need on top of this summery tart.
And who doesn't like a dessert that's sweet yet a bit fresh, that's not too guilty of a pleasure and just plain delicious?
And a tart with a vanilla custard is just all that when topped with your favorite fruits (fresh or grilled for a nice twist). Just the perfect summer baked desert!

Ingredients (EN):

Crust:

Fluffy carrot cake (with a coconut frosting) (EN/RO)

I love cakes and breads made with vegetables, like carrot cake or zucchini bread because they are delicious and you get some veggies with your dessert too :)
And why shouldn't I love them? I make them quite healthy, full of nutrients and deliciousness. So I can nourish my body as well as my soul :)
And this is a recipe perfect for spring, because carrots are delicious, crunchy and fresh. And if you celebrate Easter, I believe that this recipe deserves a try!
And you can make a coconut frosting to top the cake if you want. Or you can eat it plain, or with some plant yogurt. Delicious!
Also, it's perfect for morning or for a breakfast or snack on the go if you bake it into mini loaves or muffins.
