To begin with, let me say that this is a recipe that even my meat-eating father liked. Slice after slice was proof enough of that. It was an early Saturday morning, my sister and I were talking about making some Christmas cakes, so we searched the web for suggestions while we were sipping our first cup of coffee.

Usually, I make things with saffron or other Christmas flavours this time of year, but you can’t go wrong with a carrot cake all year round.

I love baking, but raw food is a territory I’ve experienced the least, so this was something totally new. To sum it up – I loved it!

Finally, we decided to cut the refined sugar out completely and went for the natural sugars from fruit and agave. I love baking, but raw food is a territory I’ve experienced the least, so this was something totally new. To sum it up – I loved it!

It was so easy putting it all together in the food processor. The cake was sweet, but not too sweet. And since you knew it had a whole lot of healthy ingredients with important macronutrients, you felt totally different afterward. The original recipe is from thisrawsomeveganlife.com, but I modified it a bit and it turned out great.

I had some sprinkles that I put on top. I bought them on Amazon. But you can put walnuts, cinnamon, maybe carrots, or whatever you prefer.

Either way, you should try it! This delicious raw carrot cake won’t disappoint!

I wanted to make myself and those around me a little treat last weekend. I had a hard time finding what I was looking for, so it ended up being a “two in one” version by combining two different cakes in one. You can make it vegan using margarine instead, and the almond meal can be switched to wheat, coconut or perhaps more of the gluten-free flour.

The first layer is pie dough. I didn’t use any sweetener in this one because I like the salty in contrast to the sweet filling. On top of that I put an apple crumble pie, made with almond meal for a bit more characteristic taste, and lovely oats.

“I felt high on sugar from only a small amount and would never have guessed that it didn’t contain any sugar.”

As sweetener I used powdered Stevia. And if you think that just won’t do it, let me tell you, it does! I felt high on sugar from only a small amount and would never have guessed that it didn’t contain any sugar. It may be due to my sugarless living these past months, and if so, I love it! Hopefully I’ll keep being that sensitive and won’t crave the real deal, aka table sugar.

The best vegan protein powder

Hello! If you’re a vegan or a vegetarian or just looking for a drinkable protein powder, keep reading!

Since my mission nowadays is to cut back on sugars and keep my protein high I’m forced to find alternatives due to the fact that I’m not a meat-eater. It has not been an easy task, there are a lot of quite disgusting options out there, to say the least… But now I think I found the best ones for me yet!

The first one is a protein powder from Weider, made from pea and rice protein. It’s gluten-free, lactose-free, and sweetened with Stevia. I’ve tried chocolate, vanilla, and Iced Cappuccino, and the last one’s my favorite. It almost tastes like real iced coffee. Put it in a glass with ice, water, and cold coffee, and you get yourself a perfect drink for warm days.

I recently found Bulkpowder, and they’re having a lot of great options. They’re also made with pea- and rice protein, and sweetened with Stevia. If you get a stomachache or other issues related to protein powders, they contain digestive enzymes and may be a great solution for that.

I would suggest blending them with coconut milk (not canned), almond milk, or oat milk. My personal favorite, when it comes to oat milk, are the products from the brand “Oatly”. Cheers!
