Being vegan does not mean boring meals. In fact, there are many, many delicious vegan meals and treats that your whole family will really enjoy.
Here are a few favorites:
Banana Cake:
Deliciously moist no one will ever guess it’s vegan friendly.
5 very ripe bananas (mashed0
½ cup 100% natural sugar
½ cup vegan margarine (melted)
2 cups unbleached flour
½ teaspoon vanilla
½ teaspoon cinnamon
Mix the margarine, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and mashed banana in a large bowl. Then sift in the flour. Mix thoroughly and pour batter into a non-stick, lightly oiled 13×9 inch cake tin. Bake at 350F for approximately 30 to 40 minutes or until the cake is golden and baked through.
Peanut Butter Drops:
2 tablespoons 100% natural brown sugar
½ cup granola
¼ cup shredded coconut
¾ cup peanut butter
Combine sugar, granola and coconut in a large bowl. Mix well. Heat the peanut butter over low heat in a non-stick pan for about a minute. Add the warm peanut butter to the other ingredients and mix together well. Once slightly cool roll into balls and place on a non stick baking tray. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes (or longer – they will keep well in the fridge) and enjoy.
Cinnamon and Sugar Fruit:
Use a variety of fruits such as bananas, mangos, pears, and apples and cut them into bite size pieces. Place cut fruit on a serving platter and serve with a small bowl of 2 parts 100% natural sugar and 1 part cinnamon. Then let the kids dip their fruit pieces into the mixture!
Carob Nut Clusters:
2 cups carob chips
½ cup natural peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ cup pecans
½ cup walnuts
½ cup almonds
½ cup sunflower seeds
In a non-stick pan melt the peanut butter and carob chips gently – stirring the whole time. Remove from heat and add the vanilla, nuts and seeds. Mix well. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto a non-stick baking tray or waxed paper and place in the fridge for 30 minutes or until firm (you can also store these in the fridge).
