Double Dark Chocolate Cookies
This is another recipe adapted from Babycakes! I am loving re-discovering this cookbook I can’t say enough about these cookies because they are absolutely phenomenal! Honestly the first couple times I ate them I was like “omg these are so good! did a I actually make these? what did I put in them, crack?!” They are sooo tasty and I have already made them a couple times! I think they’re perfect for a treat to go with your lunch or an evening snack. The flax meal adds such a nice texture, nuttiness, depth to the cookies that I love so don’t skimped on that! I love the addition of cinnamon…

Deadly Double Chocolate Cookies
These double chocolate cookies are perfect for when you have an intense chocolate craving! You will not regret making these when the moment arises. Finally we have some nice weather and I can take photos outside! I much prefer the outdoor lighting since I only use natural lights in my photos. I don’t have any fancy light equipment yet and I honestly think natural light is the best when the conditions are right! They have a chewy and soft texture as well as a deep chocolate flavor thanks to the abundance of cocoa powder. They’re also vegan! You can omit the cinnamon if it’s not your thing but I love…

Tahini Date Cookies
These cookies are perfect! They’re vegan, gluten free, sugar free, and deeeelicious! The dates add such a chewy sweetness to them that can’t compare to anything else! Dates are truly one of the best things! Dates are one of nature’s best foods! – first of all they are a natural sweetener – they’re high in antioxidants – high in fibre to keep you full! – they’re a great source of energy I’ll definitely be making these cookies many more times. They’re so simple to make and wonderfully healthy. Tahini Date Cookies 24 Ingredients 1 1/2 cup oat 1/4 cup tahini 1/4 cup peanut butter 1 1/2 cup lightly packed dates…

These gluten free cookies are incredible! The chewy on the inside and crinkly on the outside. I have had a lot of gluten free and vegan cookies and these are the best!

You’ll definitely notice a difference between your standard cookie and these but trust me, it’s a good difference! These have the most wonderful flavor and texture! Chewy Gluten…

Tahini Turmeric Cookies
If you are as into food blogs as I am then I’m sure you’ve noticed that turmeric and tahini have become trendy buzzwords. I have enjoyed experimenting with both in recipes and especially grabbing a jar of tahini for the first time in a while! While turmeric and tahini are fun and delicious foods, they also have numerous health benefits! I have to make a small disclaimer though, I have tried many turmeric lattes and not really enjoyed them 😮 . I don’t know if I just haven’t found the right recipe yet or if I just don’t like turmeric lattes! However, I love turmeric in curries and I love…

Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are the best oatmeal cookies I have ever had! I have made them several times now and every time I share them they are a hit! Hope everyone is having a lovely spring! I am even though it seems winter wants to stay. I haven’t had as much time to post or engage on social media because of my final teaching practicum. It has been busy but wonderful. I have even had the opportunity to teach a grade ten dance option class which has been so much fun! Crossing my fingers that I can get hired to this in September! I adapted this from The Vegetarian Baker. They are…

Soft Chocolate Cranberry Cookies (vegan)
Perfectly soft and thick chocolate cranberry cookies. Making a fun and unique cookie has never been easier! What’s the secret to keeping these cookies soft? Cornstarch! If you have never tried adding cornstarch to your cookies, I highly recommend it. Just like it gives gravies, puddings, and fillings a more full-bodied texture, cornstarch will keep your cookie dough more compact during the baking process, leaving the cookies soft, thick, and puffy. Make sure not to over bake these as it will result in a crunchier cookie. It will still be tasty but if a soft cookie is what you want, try to keep the bake time closer to 10 minutes or less…

Banana Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies (vegan and gluten free options)
I’m always on the lookout for new healthy baking ingredients so when I first heard about banana flour I knew that I had to get my hands on it! It was just my luck that I one day came across it at Home Sense! Banana flour is made from grinding dried green bananas into a flour. It’s gluten free, low in calories (100 calories per 1/4 cup!), and is packed with potassium. You can use about 2/3 cup of banana flour for every cup of flour called for in a recipe but it’s best when mixed with another flour so that your product won’t come out too dry. So what…

Peanut Butter Shortbread
Nothing screams the Holidays like shortbread! But let’s bump it up a notch and add some peanut butter in! These bars may sound difficult but trust me, they’re easier than they look and quick to make too! First you have the shortbread layer which is light and buttery. This is then covered by a wonderful creamy peanut butter filling and topped all off with chocolate! Tip: make sure everything is at room temperature when you mix it together so the coconut oil doesn’t harden and give the squares a few minutes when they come out of the fridge so they’ll be easier to cut.
