Fudgy Vegan Brownies
I have been on an aquafaba brownie kick! Before my break from blogging, I made these peanut butter aquafaba brownies. Since then I guess I’ve been eating a lot of chickpeas because I have TONS of aquafaba brownies! The ones I am sharing today use chocolate and cocoa powder for a delicious, fudgy, and super chocolatey treat! I have also made a version with just cocoa powder which is equally as good but a little easier which I will also share next time I make these. For those of you who don’t already know, aquafaba is the liquid leftover in your canned chickpeas! Don’t ever waste this liquid because…

Aquafaba Peanut Butter Vegan Brownies
I am not sure if I have ever posted a recipe using aquafaba but it is such a great trick to use for vegan baking! Aquafaba is the liquids leftover from canned chickpeas and can be used as a binding ingredient or even a mousse/whip cream replacement! It is creamy and frothy, tasting great in recipes but also on its own. In most recipes, you will need to whip it until it has formed soft peaks which can take a while so I recommend using a food processor or stand mixer. However, some recipes may called for just the liquid added straight in. This recipe uses the whipped version. If…

Gooey Extreme Chocolate Gluten Free and Vegan Brownies
Hey all! Today I have these super amazing brownies! These are so chocolately, dense, and just between fudgy and cakey. I adapted the recipe from Babycakes. I love this recipe book and just recently re-discovered! It had gone missing for a while. Everything is vegan and gluten free and made with mostly pretty healthy ingredients. In my philosophy I don’t feel like I always need to make everything 100% all natural or healthy (for example these still use sugar) but if they can be a little healthier and I know what’s going into it then it’s a win! I have even actually been to this bakery in NYC! I still remember…

Vegan Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownies
Hope you all are doing well during this time of social distancing. I’m sure many people out there are baking up a storm like I am! I made these brownies a while ago for Valentine’s Day (I know I’m very behind). For V-day I wanted something pink! It took me a while to figure something out but I also felt like making something different with a few more steps than I usually do. Eventually I settled on making these vegan red velvet cheesecake brownies! You don’t need to use the food coloring but I did since I wanted these to be pink! These brownies are awesome! They’re dense and gooey…

Peanut Butter Black Bean Brownies
Hey everyone! I am back from Quebec and ready for some baking! I had so much fun during my time in Quebec! I met so many people, learned French, and ate lots of delicious Chocolat Favoris ice cream. I immediately made some Rhubarb Crisp when I got home and then decided to experiment with a new recipe! I think this is the first time I have made black bean brownies. And now I wonder why I didn’t make them sooner! These are gooey, sweet, and decadent. You would never guess that black beans are the main ingredient. I will be making them again ASAP! Peanut Butter Black Bean Brownies Adapted…

Simple Raw Brownies
I have slowly been becoming obsessed with raw no-bake desserts! And since I especially love chocolate brownies, I knew that I had to make a raw brownie recipe! I find these ones reminiscent of Little Debbie’s Cosmic Brownies, especially with the sprinkles! Which I used to eat all the time when I was little! If anyone knows how to recreate those with a healthy twist but still just as fudgy please let me know ASAP! These brownies are still better than Cosmic Brownies and maybe even more delicious! They’re also vegan, raw, gluten free, paleo, and have no refined sugar! They contain: Cocoa powder Coconut Oil Almonds Dates Maple Syrup Cinnamon…

Vegan Coconut Flour Brownies (vegan, gluten free, sugar free)
I have been obsessed with pink lately! Not sure if it’s because Valentine’s Day is coming up or what but I used to not like pink at all! But I have to say, the new obsession is quite welcome. These brownies are so healthy you won’t believe it! I have been looking hard for a vegan recipe that uses coconut flour but they are so hard to find as coconut flour generally needs a lot of eggs to bind. This recipe uses lots of flax seeds instead of eggs which works well. You may taste some grittiness from the flax if you make your own like I do but the…

Mini Brownie Cupcakes for my First Blogiversary
A verry merry blogiversary to me! I can’t believe that I have already had this blog for a year! My real blogiversary was on November 7 but I decided that today being 11/11/11 was an extra special occasion to celebrate. I hope all of you are enjoying it too! Have a cupcake with me to celebrate Sprinkles! I had been reading blogs for two or three years before I actually started my own. The reason I did not start sooner was because I was unsure about being able to keep it up. It seems silly now that I have kept this blog up for a year and I look forward to many…

Vegan Brownies
I have to confess that since I have started my Vegan Fridays I have been hoarding vegan recipe books. My favourite so far has been a book you’ve probably heard of, (in fact I wouldn’t be surprised if it was at your side right now) it’s called Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar. This is a great book. It has so many tasty, easy, and interesting vegan goodies in it. I plan on making many recipes from it! I also have requested Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World from my library and wait patiently for its arrival. From all the books I have been reading, I have learned…

Microwave Bean Brownie
I tried hot yoga for the first time a few days ago! It was excellent and in fact I am going again today! Hot yoga is an experience every yogi should try. If you don’t like yoga because you find it too “easy” then I highly recommend hot yoga because you’ll be sweating buckets. I went in for a 75 minute class and it went by so fast! I enjoyed every second of it. Much to my surprise, my muscles were sore the next day. That was strange for me because I hardly ever get sore muscles. In case you don’t know what hot yoga is, it’s basically a normal yoga class done…
