Chocolate Avocado Mousse
Ingredients:
2 ripe avocados
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Instructions:
Scoop the flesh of the avocados into a blender or food processor.
Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Transfer the mousse into serving bowls and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh berries or shaved chocolate if desired.
Tips: For an extra smooth texture, make sure your avocados are perfectly ripe. You can also adjust the sweetness level by adding more or less maple syrup to suit your taste.
Vegan Banana Bread
Ingredients:
3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/3 cup melted coconut oil
1/2 cup maple syrup or agave nectar
1/4 cup plant-based milk (such as almond or soy)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Optional: chopped nuts or chocolate chips for topping
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle with chopped nuts or chocolate chips if desired.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips: To keep your banana bread moist, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze slices for longer storage.
Raspberry Chia Seed Pudding
Ingredients:
1/4 cup chia seeds
1 cup plant-based milk (such as coconut or almond)
1 tablespoon maple syrup or agave nectar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup fresh raspberries
Instructions:
In a mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, plant-based milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, until the mixture has thickened into a pudding-like consistency.
Before serving, gently mash the raspberries with a fork and swirl them into the chia seed pudding.
Divide the pudding into serving glasses or bowls and garnish with additional raspberries if desired.
Tips: Feel free to customize this pudding with your favorite fruits or toppings. You can also add a sprinkle of shredded coconut or a drizzle of melted chocolate for extra flavor.
