Everyone loves a dairy-free no bake cheesecake in this household. There is something magical about the combination of strawberries, cream and a biscuity layer, it just works. Here, I’ve turned the classic strawberry shortcake flavours and textures into a delicious no-bake, extremely easy vegan no-bake cheesecake, using just six (or 7 if you use the vanilla) ingredients.

Apple muffins are great at any time of day – they’re delicious for breakfast, make a great snack, or even work as a nice pudding if warmed and served with custard. This recipe for vegan apple muffins is one you definitely need to bookmark. Jump to Recipe These dairy and egg-free muffins have a wonderful light texture and the apple add a surprising depth of flavour and some juicy interest in the light fluffy sponge. I’ve chosen to make these just flavoured with cinnamon but you could leave that out, adding vanilla instead. Or how about a handful of juicy sultanas to give an old school baked a ..read more

Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes, what a fantastic idea! Little S saw this on TikTok and I had to make my own version – you may think it’s a bit of a gimmick but the cinnamon flavour really comes through and they really do taste just like a cinnamon bun, in pancake form! I’ve made the batter especially thick so get get a lovely fluffy pancake that holds the swirl – you want to have the look of a cinnamon bun after all. Plus the light fluffy texture really adds to the fun nature of these pancakes. This is not a sponsored post but the Coconut Merchant have sent me some of their products to use in my re ..read more
