Vegans Of Faith

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 9th of May 2022 Did you know that lemon is said to ward off depression? Yes, lemon is a happy fruit, so if you need cheering up and you are partial to a piece of cake, this is one that you should try. It is easy to make and tastes fantastic with a lovely light lemon flavour. The sponge is nice and light with a pleasant lemony taste. In addition, the lemon drizzle is made with powdered sugar to excite those taste buds even further. 

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 2nd of May 2022 Pitta bread is so good and very easy to make.  You can make white or brown pitta bread then cut it open and stuff it with any filling that you like.   You can make it with any kind of flour, but I find it is best with strong bread flour because it gives a better texture.  This recipe is for the wholemeal bread, if you want the white, just replace the strong wholemeal with strong white bread flour.

  Written by McDonald, T.   |  Update 10 of March 2023     This modern English bread is like a combination of Hot cross buns and Italian Raisin Bread.  It has big fat juicy sultanas with a subtle mixed spice flavour of Hot cross Buns and, let's not forget, a wonderful crust.  The bread is light and fluffy.  As it bakes in the oven, it releases a fantastic aroma into the kitchen and beyond.  Once you have made this bread, you can just cut a piece off and have it as a snack with some butter and jam.  Enjoy!

Written by  McDonald, T.    |  Date 11th of April 2022 This is a simple, but tasty recipe that really surprised me at how good it is.  It has all the good bits that a hot cross bun would offer in that it has mixed peel, sultans and even mixed spices.

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 4th of April 2022  This is a cake of compassion.  Compassion for the animals, compassion for the lonely, compassion for those who are pining for someone they love.  As a vegan, I miss out on nothing!  This is a great cake that is 100% vegan!  In fact, it celebrates being vegan.  It is not just perfect for the month of sorrows when comfort is needed. It is also the perfect recipe for Jewish new year, so bookmark this recipe for the New Year!  Whatever your reason, this cake is a delight.
