Sugar Free Carrot & Prune Muffins Makes 12

What you need to do

6 oz. (170g) pitted prunes 2 tbsp. ground flaxseed + 5 tbsp. water 7. 4 oz. (210g) whole wheat flour 1½ tsp. baking powder ½ tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. ground cinnamon 3.9 oz. (110g) grated carrots 1 tsp. vanilla extract 4.2 oz. (120g) applesauce, unsweetened 4.2 oz. (120g) vegan natural yogurt 5 tbsp. olive oil

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray or cupcake liners. Soak the prunes in hot water for 10 minutes, then drain and finely chop.

Make a flaxseed egg by combining the ground flaxseed and water in a bowl and setting aside for 5 minutes. In a medium bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon, stir to combine. Add the grated carrots and prunes and toss to coat. Add the vanilla extract, applesauce, yogurt and olive oil to the bowl with the flaxseed egg and pour into the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Fill each muffin cup ⅔ full with the batter. Place the tin into the hot oven to bake for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean. Remove the tray from the oven and set the muffins onto a wire rack to cool before serving. Leftover muffins can be stored in an airtight container on the countertop for 2-3 days.

Broccoli Pancakes with Vegan Cheese Sauce Serves 4

What you need to do

For the broccoli pancakes: 12.7 oz. (360g) broccoli florets 1 tbsp. ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp. water ½ tsp. garlic powder ¼ tsp. red pepper flakes, plus extra to garnish 4 tbsp. all purpose flour ½ tsp. baking powder salt & pepper ½ tbsp. olive oil lemon wedges for serving

Steam the broccoli until tender, then set aside to cool slightly before cutting into small pieces.

For the "cheese" sauce: 6.9 oz. (195g) cashew nuts 4 tbsp. nutritional yeast ½ tsp. garlic powder ¼ tsp. chili powder 1 tbsp. olive oil ½ tsp. salt 8 fl oz. (240ml) warm water

In a large bowl, whisk ground flaxseed and water together and set aside for 5 minutes. Then add the garlic powder, red pepper flakes, flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and chopped broccoli and stir to combine. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Scoop 2 tablespoon sized mounds of the broccoli batter into the skillet, flattening the top with the back of a spoon or spatula. Cook the pancakes for 2 minutes, until browned. Then flip over and cook on the second side until brown, and the pancake is cooked through. Repeat the process with the remaining batter. To make the “cheese” sauce, add the cashews, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, chili powder, olive oil, and salt, to a food processor or high speed blender. While blitzing together, slowly drizzle in the warm water until the sauce reaches a creamy consistency. Serve the broccoli pancakes, with the vegan cheese sauce and lemon wedges. DF
