Anzac cookies are probably one of my favorite cookies! The richness of coconut, the depth of Lyle’s golden syrup all held together with oats, flour and sugar…oh yeah, and your favorite non-dairy butter too! How incredibly delicious this mixture is. All I can say is THANKS AUSTRALIA for coming up with a perfect cookie. Australians call these cookies biscuits and they were developed during the first World War for the soldiers. They were perfect for travel because they do not contain milk or eggs, which means the soldiers had a yummy way to have sustenance while away. The one secret ingredient is Lyle’s Golden Syrup. I found mine at a local store that has an international section. Look where you might find ingredients from the UK, you will likely find this sweet gem. There’s only one way it could get better…add fruit! So which fruit goes well with coconut and oats? My pick is strawberry. I originally planned on making homemade strawberry jam but then got impatient (big surprise for those who know me) and bought a jar of organic strawberry preserves instead. I suppose that for this recipe you could use homemade jam and it would add another layer of deliciousness. These cookies are sweet, rich and the texture is a little chewy, a little soft…and A LOT delectable. ]]> Thu, 16 Jun 2011 02:37:35 -0400 746 2011-06-16 5 http://www.veganbaking.net/cookies/720-power-puffs http://www.veganbaking.net/cookies/720-power-puffs These power puffs are so puff-tastic! I highly recommend them. I have never used millet before and I will certainly be using it more often. It’s fluffy, light and has more protein than puffed rice. These little power puffs are a perfect snack with a hot cuppa joe. You can easily cut this recipe in half if you aren’t trying to feed an army. These are so good that my husband brought them to his Tai Chi class this morning and vanished with a request for more next week…I highly suggest you give these a whirl. ]]> Sat, 12 Mar 2011 23:25:09 -0500 720 2011-03-12 5 http://www.veganbaking.net/breads/enriched-breads/muffins/702-peanut-butter-muffins http://www.veganbaking.net/breads/enriched-breads/muffins/702-peanut-butter-muffins I have a new found love for this peanut butter muffin recipe which happened by mistake. I was scouring the internet looking for a recipe for peanut butter bread…there aren’t that many. Don’t ask me why I was so fixated on finding a recipe for such a thing, I just get it in my head sometimes and I can’t let it go. I found this recipe and decided to veganize it. And then I realized that I had misplaced my bread pan… So it became a muffin recipe! ]]> Fri, 21 Jan 2011 20:03:44 -0500 702 2011-01-21 5 http://www.veganbaking.net/cookies/695-cranberry-pecan-oatmeal-cookies http://www.veganbaking.net/cookies/695-cranberry-pecan-oatmeal-cookies These cookies are one of the standards of our Christmas baking celebrations. They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The crunchy pecans and tart-sweetness of the cranberries really make a complex and well rounded flavor and texture. They are really, really delicious! ]]> Thu, 30 Dec 2010 23:44:25 -0500 695 2010-12-30 5 http://www.veganbaking.net/cookies/617-ren-oaty-granola-cookies http://www.veganbaking.net/cookies/617-ren-oaty-granola-cookies I decided to recreate a granola cookie I once had in Sonoma from a cute little coffee shop. It was this fantastic oat-based cookie with honey and nuts and seeds. It was filling and tasty, but not vegan. So I thought I would try it at home with my modifications. I'm very, very pleased with how they came out. Please try this recipe at home. ]]> Tue, 08 Jun 2010 19:22:17 -0400 617 2010-06-08 4 http://www.veganbaking.net/breads/enriched-breads/quick-breads/552-oatmeal-whole-wheat-quick-bread http://www.veganbaking.net/breads/enriched-breads/quick-breads/552-oatmeal-whole-wheat-quick-bread I vegan-ized this Oatmeal Whole Wheat Quick Bread from a recipe found here. All I can say is WOW! Moist, full of texture, earthy and oh so delicious. ]]> Thu, 08 Apr 2010 03:30:49 -0400 552 2010-04-08 4 http://www.veganbaking.net/breads/enriched-breads/muffins/373-zucchini-carrot-muffins-with-cinnamon-crumble-top http://www.veganbaking.net/breads/enriched-breads/muffins/373-zucchini-carrot-muffins-with-cinnamon-crumble-top These Zucchini Carrot Muffins are moist and delicious. They are a popular treat among my vegan and non-vegan friends. They seem to be more delectable with fresh zucchini and carrots from the garden. Enjoy! The recipe was adapted from here. ]]> Sun, 16 Aug 2009 03:22:27 -0400 373 2009-08-16 5
