My brother wanted ‘anything with peanut butter’ as a birthday bake, so I went with these Peanut Butter and Banana Oat Slices. They are easy to transport to him, tasty and secretly vegan. He had no idea they were vegan, obviously, LOL. I really like these as they are quick, simple and full of goodness […]

Chocolate Orange Protein Bread
April 4, 2017 by bright-admin - in Bread, Dessert, Fitness Fuel, Free From, Healthy Alternative, Loaf
My boyfriend is ‘bulking’ – which, for those who don’t know what it means, is basically trying to gain mass and muscle. My mission – to make a Chocolate Orange Protein Bread for my boyfriend that he doesn’t feel guilty eating, has a good boost of protein in it and is still a tasty treat. […]
Vegan Chocolate Orange Granola
February 2, 2017 by bright-admin - in Breakfast, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Traybake, Vegan
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 […]
Vegan Banana & Walnut Chickpea Slices
January 1, 2017 by bright-admin - in Bites, Breakfast, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Traybake, Vegan
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 […]
Vegan Dark Chocolate and Orange Oatmeal Cookies
January 1, 2017 by bright-admin - in Biscuit, Cookies, Free From, Vegan
It’s January and I’m overwhelmed with Veganuary posts on social media. Anyone else trying it? I’m trying a Vegan diet for a few days a week, for reasons I won’t talk about now, so thought it was a great excuse to make a ‘healthy’ Vegan snack, and that’s where these Vegan Dark Chocolate and Orange […]
Vegan Orange and Cranberry Loaf
December 12, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bread, Christmas, Free From, Vegan
This Vegan Orange and Cranberry Loaf is the ideal Christmas flavour combination in my eyes. I’ve been desperate to get these flavours into something, shortbread, cookies, cakes…but settled on a loaf cos, well, loaves are my fave, end of. Not only have I made this loaf Vegan, but it also uses wholemeal flour, so will […]
Vegan Raspberry and Dark Chocolate Spelt Loaf
October 10, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bread, Free From, Healthy Alternative, Loaf, Vegan
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. This Raspberry and Dark Chocolate Spelt Loaf went down an absolute treat! It was actually the most popular […]
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 […]
Raspberry and Honey Oat Bars
August 8, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bites, Breakfast, Fitness Fuel, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Traybake, Vegan
I’ve got a freezer full of frozen raspberries and a hungry boyfriend who is allergic to nuts. Why not combine the two? (not literally of course!) These Raspberry and Honey Oat Bars are simple, quick, cheap, gluten free, dairy free and a healthy alternative to a shop bought variant. Swap the honey for maple or […]
15 minute Chia Pots
July 7, 2016 by bright-admin - in Breakfast, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Vegan
In this heat, I am weary of putting the oven on for too long. In fact, I don’t want to be doing anything in the kitchen for too long, but still want some sort of summery breakfast/dessert to look forward to. So these 15 minute Chia Pots are perfect for a delicious, simple, and QUICK […]
Vegan Snap Cookies
July 7, 2016 by bright-admin - in Biscuit, Bites, Free From, Gluten Free, Vegan
I’m not ashamed to admit that these Vegan Snap Cookies were made completely by accident. I was trying out a different vegan bake (which will be up soon) and realised I had the wrong consistency of ingredients. I desperately didn’t want to waste anything I had used, so turned them into these chocolate dipped moreish […]
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 […]
Chocolate Chia Protein Brownies

These Chocolate Chia Protein Brownies are a tasty, healthy alternative brownie. Something to really look forward to after a sesh at the gym or after a pumped up game (or even just after ‘one of those days….’). They will keep you full, satisfy that sweet craving and are totally non-guilty. Full of all the healthy […]
Vegan Choco Krispies
April 4, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bites, Brownie, Dessert, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Indulgent, Traybake, Vegan
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 […]
