  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon cloves

  • 1/3 cup (approx.) apple juice
Directions:

Place dry ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Mix wet ingredients together and add to dry. Place in an 8" round, slightly greased, spring form pan.

Topping: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (or nut of your choice) 1/2 tsp cinnamon 2 Tbsp rice syrup or maple syrup 1 tsp unrefined corn oil

Mix together and spread evenly over cake. (You may have to wet fingers to spread mixture evenly.)

Bake at 350F for 40-45 minutes. Cool and serve.

(This recipe works equally well with pears. Just add 1 tsp ginger to cake and 1/2 tsp ginger to topping.)

Instead of above topping, spread with favourite jam or apple butter and put nuts in cake.

Banana Fritters

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

  • yellow bananas - at least one per person!
  • vegetable oil
  • cinnamon
  • vegan sugar
  • flour
Directions:

Slice the bananas lengthwise into 1/4 inch strips. On a plate, drop a few tablespoons of flour, and lightly roll the bananas in the flour. Sprinkle with plenty of cinnamon and vegan sugar on both sides. Heat a tablespoon or two of oil in a non-stick pan. Fry the bananas on both sides until golden brown. Sprinkle with a little more cinnamon and vegan sugar, and serve hot. Be prepared to make more!

TIP: This is really easy to make if you keep a cinnamon-vegan sugar blend in an old spice jar. This is also handy for late night cinnamon toast urges.

Preparation time: 5-10 min.

Bulghur-Fruit Pudding

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

  • bulghur (for each person, use 1/2-3/4 cup)
  • 2 cups fresh berries
  • 1 cup fruit juice for each 1/2 cup bulgur
Directions:

Bring fruit juice and bulghur to a boil. Let boil for 2 minutes. Take off heat, stir in berries. Let sit till juice is absorbed. Eat hot, warm or cold.

Notes:

1) If you're going to use cranberries, I would also add a sweetener

2) Fruit juices that work well - pear, apple, cranberry, etc..

3) Instead of bulghur, you can try other flavorful grains - millet, brown rice, whatever. Just use the appropriate amount of fruit juice to cook the grain.

4) A little cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ground clove, cardamom would make tasty additions

5) Dried fruit instead or with the fresh fruit is great

6) Serve with vanilla or plain soy yogurt, if desired.

Serves: varies

Preparation time: 20 minutes
