Most people (such as my boyfriend) think that, after lettuce, oatcakes are the most boring food to exist on this planet. I on the other hand happen to disagree. I think that their gentle oaty fragrance, milky taste, crumbly texture and versatility as a food item in general are real competitive attributes to this tough… Continue reading Oatcake Slabs (vegan | gluten-free)
Now this is when oats can be at pancake level! When I eat this bowl, I always feels like I'm eating pudding for breakfast, can't have a better meal in the morning when it resembles a dessert. It's probably obvious by now that chocolate orange is one of my favourite flavour combinations so it will… Continue reading Choc Orange Overnight Oats (vegan | gluten-free | fat-free)⠀⠀⠀⠀

Should I not be so blunt? I think I caught this attitude from my German boyfriend! In England, we’re often accused of beating around… Continue reading Chocolate Hazelnut Oat Cookies (vegan | gluten-free)
I honestly can’t take this sudden abundance of raw imitation cheesecakes with their soft nut bases and their faux-cream fillings pumped with expensive fruit powders (another useless non-entity of an ingredient) just to hype up their appearance. They don’t really taste like real cheesecake and you normally have to spend at least a day’s salary… Continue reading Baked Lemon Cheesecake Bars (vegan |gluten-free)
