Whole Wheat Vegan Pumpkin Bagels
I had to repost these pumpkin bagels for several reasons; they are naturally vegan, it’s pumpkin season and honestly, homemade bagels are the bomb! Making bagels may seem like there are endless steps involved especially when you first look at…
Espresso Vegan Banana Bread
“Veganizing” baked goods can be somewhat tricky. Replacing the eggs are one thing, removing fats are another. Going a step further is attempting gluten free. I decided to forego testing gluten free flours in this recipe; however, I will let you in…
The Best Homemade Pita Bread
Can you pass up freshly baked bread? I can easily pass on the bread basket served at most restaurants, unless with one sniff as the basket is laid before me, it’s freshly baked, warm from the oven. Then I need to immediately rethink…
