Written by Mattie

Hello Mattie!
First, thank you for this awesome website. I tried dozens of your recipes in the last couple of months and was very pleased. They are delicious and impressed most of my non vegan friends !
I didnt find a non dairy yogurt, what could I use instead for this cheesecake ?
Thanks !

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!

Savory version?
Haven't tried these yet, but I was thinking, I would love a savory version! Maybe with herbs and chives!
A visitor found helpful a review for Sugar Mama's Gluten-free Vegan Vanilla Cake

Amazing!
This cake surprised me! I was nervous baking my first GF Vegan cake (somehow for my non-gf or vegan family...) and was afraid it would turn out with the gritty texture so many gf baked goods have. However this cake is amazingly moist and fluffy! Even the most hardcore meat and gluten supporter of the group gave it a rave review! This recipe will be my new go-to! Thank you so much!!

very good
This turned out great. I followed all the instructions exactly and it turned out perfectly. I am not gluten-free but my son is. the only reason I gave it 4 stars, is because it still states slightly gluten free to me, but it's very close to gluten-full baking. My son totally loved it!!!!

Sustainable Palm oil
Palm oil is actually good for our health as long as it isn't hydrogenated, but you should watch out for these few oils.

The last Friday of September is Vegan Baking Day. A day to spread vegan baking by sharing tasty eats with your community!

Here's a Tip!

Want to make your brittle a little more crispy and easier to bite into? Mix about 1 teaspoon of baking soda into the hot brittle just before it's poured onto the flat surface. The baking soda will make tiny little air bubbles in the brittle and cause it to get slightly puffed up, making for a lighter and crispier brittle.
