Maple Bundt Cake

My partner's mother passed this recipe along to me and it is amazing! I used local Michigan maple syrup and it is perfectly sweetened without any added sugar.

Banana Blueberry Ice Cream

Who doesn't love ice cream? However, I don't love the prices of store-bought vegan ice cream which can be over $6 per pint! This is a healthy, no-sugar-added recipe that is best served slightly softened. Best of all, you just put all of the ingredients in a blender and you're done in less than 5 minutes. If you're feeling a little more indulgent, scoop it into balls to make Unfried Ice Cream. I also turned this into a smoothie by adding some vanilla protein powder and enough soy milk to make it a creamy texture.

Blueberry Tart

I loved making this tart with local Michigan blueberries! It was so much simpler than I imagined it would be and tasted great. I used lemon juice and zest instead of the listed orange, but it came out just a little too tart so I suggest sticking to orange.

Sweet Potato Fries

I had an extra sweet potato left over from baking the cake and my mom was craving sweet potato fries so I came up with this recipe.

Sugar-free Sweet Potato Chocolate Cake

I am so excited to share this recipe with you! Not only is it refined sugar-free, but it has healthy ingredients like sweet potato, millet, banana, and avocado. I was nervous about the strange components but it is very similar in flavor and texture to a banana cake that my mom makes.

Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake

I'm embarking on a refined-sugar-free journey until June but I couldn't resist sharing this amazing recipe for vegan cheesecake. I was hesitant about the texture and flavor since most vegan cheesecakes I've had fail in one or both areas. However, this recipe is very mousse-like and deliciously rich.
