I found this recipe in Ready Made magazine, thought they sounded amazing. I always get excited when I see a vegan recipe in a mainstream publication. I made these for my very-not-vegan office and they were gobbled up.  Pretty simple recipe and basic ingredients, I’m due to make these again real soon. Ingredients 3 cups organic white spelt flour (I just used regular white... Read More

One of my recent interns Angela surprised me on her last day with some amazing vegan treats.  Even more amazing and sweet considering she had never made anything vegan before.  And I have to say, I think she hit it out of the park, so I wanted to share the recipe she used for her peanut butter blondies (adapted from Fake Ginger adapted from Better Home & Gardens).
