The Experimental Cook

Hi everyone! It's been a while so I thought I should share this amazing bread I made a few weeks ago.

Cinnamon Roll Bread!

I used regular bread dough to make this plaited loaf so once it has risen once for about 3 hours (or doubled in size) I split the dough into 3 pieces and rolled them out into long thin rectangles. I covered each of the plait pieces with cinnamon sugar.

Then I rolled it up back into a sausage shape and pinched the edges to seal it

I plaited the 3 pieces of dough and brushed it all over with melted vegan butter before leaving it to rise (maximum 1 hour)

I baked it at 200°c for about 25-30 minutes until the bottom sounded hollow.

Brush with more melted vegan butter and serve!! Honestly so good! Like a cinnamon roll crossed with a loaf of bread 🍞

Long time no see!

I just had to pop back on here to share this incredible bread I just made; vegan cheese and pickle loaf!

Long time no see! I just had to pop back on to share my newest favourite thing to do with oat pulp; a GIANT MICROWAVE COOKIE! 🍪🍪

I have tried a baked cookie with oat pulp but it just didn't work, unpleasantly slimy in the middle, but this is just perfect. It's more bready than like a cookie but absolutely delicious anyway.

dEATS

- 1 batch oat pulp

- 2 or 3 heaped dessert spoons self raising flour

- 2 or 3 tsp liquid sweetener (I used @sweetfreedomuk)

- chocolate chips (vegan galaxy was my choice)

- vegan Nutella to stuff the cookie (I used JimJams)

-mix together the oat pulp, sweetener, flour and choc chips

-place half the dough on a lined microwaveable plate and then blob some vegan Nutella on top before covering with the rest of the dough

-microwave on high for 2 minutes or until it is cooked on the outside.

-let it cool for 5 minutes then enjoy!

Rather chuffed with this vegan (no bake) cheesecake that I made! It was so tasty and I will absolutely be making it again.

For the base I made shortbread, but using vegan biscuit crumbs and vegan butter to bind works too.

The filling was simply half a tub of violife cream cheese, a little non-dairy milk, and icing sugar to taste, all whisked together until fully mixed.

Then construct and enjoy! Mine made two individual cheesecakes 😊

Thanks for the ask! I get my recipes from all over really which I know isn't a helpful answer. I get inspiration from other food accounts generally and develop my own recipes from there.

I made such good bread this week! Breadmaking is one of my weekly weekend routines and it's so calming, I love it! I finally managed to get the big sourdoughy bubbles in it and it was so chewy and delicious.

I have possibly made the best cookie dough hummus I've ever made and it was so simple! I added to a blender 1 tin of chickpeas, about 3 tbsp cashew butter, 2-3 tbsp Sweet Freedom vanilla syrup and 2 pinches of flaky salt. Blend it up and voilà !

I like it so loaded onto rice cakes that there's more topping than rice cake 🙈

Feeling some different vibes for my breakfast this morning! I had baked oats topped with Lotus biscoff spread and a side of banana ♥️🤩 absolutely heavenly

A super simple but delicious tea 🎉😉

I chopped and roasted a random selection of veg (I think I did parsnip, celery, carrot, turnip and tofu) and I made a quick tomato sauce. Then I piled it all on top of two thick slices of sourdough toast and butter. Absolute perfection ✌️👌

So for ages I have been so skeptical of all the people who put Tahini on basically everything because I just find the taste too harsh in anything that's not hummus. I have just tried LiquidGold tahini and my mind has been changed! Honestly so good 🤓 I had it on top of my porridge bowl with banana and Sweet Freedom vanilla syrup. So good!

A delicious dinner from last week consisting of homemade pasta noodles, vegan bolognese using the aldi plant based mince and corn on the cob!

I made some rather delicious oaty chocolate chip cookies the other day and I though I would share the recipe with you all!
