Sugar Free Fruit Crumble

I know I’ve said it before but fruit crumble is terribly nostalgic for me. Growing up in Wales my mum would regularly make crumble with the fruit we would harvest from the garden. Usually rhubarb, wild blackberries and apples.

Mango and coconut chia pudding

Chia Pudding is something you HAVE to add to your repertoire, it is so easy to make! It’s just chia seeds, nut milk and then leave it overnight….I mean, seriously?! You can get creative with what you add into your milk (like I did here) or you can keep it plain and add delicious toppings (or you can do both of course!).

The perfect cheat day treat: sweet nectar

Look…I’m not one to shy away from a cheat day treat BUT since becoming a bit more health conscious over the last few years even for my cheat meal I like to keep away from refined sugar and processed food. I recently tried Sweet Nectar desserts and I was SO impressed!

Spiced fruit crumble with vegan ice cream

Honestly this reminds me of my mums fruit crumble SO much which is such an awesome food memory for me! This is so easy to make and I can guarantee you friends, family or loved ones will be asking for seconds. I try to limit my dairy so I use coconut milk ice cream and I find it compliments the dish really well.

Lemon and turmeric low sugar balls

As you may have seen from my other energy ball recipes they often contain natural sugar derived from dried fruit such as dates, apricots, sultanas and so on. I thought I would come up with a low-sugar recipe for all of you who are trying to watch your sugar intake and possibly lose weight.

Vegan ice-cream cake you can eat for breakfast

I’m not a big fan of authorising sweet-treats for breakfast just because it contains ‘natural’ sugar. I do honestly believe in a well-balanced diet so if you want pancakes for breakfast covered in lashings of maple syrup then that is great! But I wouldn’t recommend it as a morning ritual.

Apple do-nots

Snack time is always the most dangerous time for me. Give me a bag of potato chips I’ll eat the whole lot, chocolate biscuits? Umm….yes please! So I’ve tried to find ways to always have snack food on hand that is not going to pile on the pounds and is still tasty and satisfying!

Popcorn

Popcorn is so much fun and easy to make! It reminds me of making big batches as a child with my brother (although we covered ours in salted caramel!!). I’ve put together a ‘sweet’ and savoury’ option for you, but they are both so yummy!

Vegan chocolate bark

YUMMMM! Similar to my v’day chocolates this is so easy and looks so impressive if you pull it out at a dinner party. It literally takes 10 minutes to make! Because of the fresh fruit it can only keep for a couple of days…
