Thanks maryfarrell! The vegan yogurt helps add a little extra richness and "cheesiness" to the cheesecake. To substitute, you should be able to get by with 3/4 cups non-dairy milk (preferably soy) whisked together with about 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar. Good luck!

Mattie Thanks for responding to quickly. I did try the scones using solid coconut oil. They were a little dry. The texture didn't look like your picture. More like the scones were about to crumble. If that makes any sense. They were still VERY del...

hkannelm added Vegan Chocolate Zucchini Mud Cake to favorites

A recipe from Triumph of the Lentil: Soy-Free Vegan Wholefoods for all Appetites . Don’t be fooled by the zucchini in the title. This is actually a decadent tasting vegan mud cake. Made in a bundt pan it is thin and crispy on the outside and moist and dense on the inside, so much that it doesn’t need any icing or accompaniments. To make it a bit fancier-looking you could drizzle it with melted...

Here's a Tip!

Yeast should be stored in the refrigerator to prevent spoiling. Stored in this manner, yeast will keep for up to six months.

If it doesn't it should be discarded.
