I have no qualms in expressing my LOVE for granola. I’d have it for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks if I allowed myself to. I’ve made this Vegan Chocolate Orange Granola to satisfy my needs but also my purse. Good quality vegan granola can be an absolute fortune, which I think is usually unnecessary. You […]

Yep, you read that correctly, Vegan Banana & Walnut CHICKPEA Slices. These are grain free, I used chickpeas instead of flour and syrup instead of refined sugar. These are THE ONE. I’ve fallen into a Vegan diet, I was just going to do it one day a week, but then I watched lots of videos […]

Myself and my boy held a coffee morning to raise some cash for MacMillan Cancer Care – I baked lots of BakingBright goodies but had a few Vegan guests and wanted to make something a little different.

Banana, Date & Dark Chocolate Chip Squares
September 9, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bites, Breakfast, Fitness Fuel, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Traybake, Vegan
I’ve been on set filming for almost a month and as much as I love to indulge in a biscuit or five the novelty is beginning to wear off, not only for me but for the majority of the cast and crew too. Filming life is not known for eating well or healthily…. So, I […]

I’ve recently finished watching Breaking Bad (yes, I’m very late to the party, but so glad I FINALLY got round to watching it!) and if you’ve seen it, you’ve probably got a good idea where this Bacon, Banana and Maple Loaf post has come from. For those who haven’t seen it, or saw it so […]
Purple Fruit Loaves
July 7, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bites, Cake, Free From, Gluten Free, Loaf
This gorgeous weather has me craving berries, and the shops are full of the purple variety (blueberries/blackberries etc…) so, I thought I’d stick them in a bake and simply call them ‘Purple Fruit Loaves’. This is a gluten free recipe, but if you aren’t gluten free, you can substitute the gluten free oats and flour […]

Apple and Almond Quinoa Porridge
June 6, 2016 by bright-admin - in Breakfast, Fitness Fuel, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Vegan
These Apple and Almond Quinoa Porridge pots were born out of boredom. I LOVE oats, porridge and cereal, but wanted to switch breakfast up a bit. I didn’t want to break too much from the norm, just a slight variation and quinoa seemed to fit! Quinoa is pretty spesh – naturally gluten free, jam packed […]

May 5, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bread, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Loaf
My first week back from my 9 month tour and I’m back in my own kitchen. *Cue happy sigh* To get back into the ‘baking swing of things’, I (finally) decided on this Carrot, Ginger and Nut Loaf – Gluten Free. Why I hear you say? Loaves. Loaves are my favourite, favourite, favourite thing to […]
Vegan Choco Krispies

Usually my baking creations are invented because of an impending event or request, but these Vegan Choco Krispies were born out of lust. A purely selfish bake – I wanted chocolate, I wanted coconut oil, I wanted something crunchy but fudgey and I didn’t want to feel too bad about eating it (so hopefully you […]

Pistachio Power Balls
March 3, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bites, Breakfast, Fitness Fuel, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Vegan
I love snacking. One of my fellow cast members on the tour I am on calls me a little rabbit – always in the corner munching on something (leave your dirty jokes at the door please…!). ‘Healthy’ snacking can be challenging sometimes, so here is where my Pistachio Power Balls come into fruition. These are […]

So many people seem to be trying out a vegan diet for January so I thought I’d make something that was a tasty treat for those who may be struggling a little. This Vegan Fig and Dark Chocolate Loaf is a perfect tea time snack or dessert (I served it with some vegan coconut yogurt). […]
