I made Dolly’s strawberry cake today. I had to veganize though. I used applesauce instead of egg and oil instead of butter. Still came out moist and delicious! ππ°

Vegetable pastry
Last week I had the most delicious vegetable puff pastry at my local coffee shop and I knew I had to try to make it myself. I roasted vegetables that were tossed in a marinade of Turkish red pepper paste, sundried tomato, olive oil, cumin, mint, basil, Aleppo pepper, salt and black pepper. I mixed in thawed frozen spinach before filling the dough. I didn’t have enough puff pastry sheets so I was only able to get 3 pocketshh out of it. I made a quick flatbread dough and got four more pockets. This was delicious! The flavor profile was good and will definitely make again. #veggiepastry

A cuppa fruit cocktail with the juice (I used light syrup)
Mix and add to greased pan. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes until golden and bubbly!

RIP Sweet Dolly
So sad that we lost a legend. She still had so much more life to live. She will be remembered for her humanitarian efforts and of course her music and lovely self. I had to pick up some of her cake mixes. Looking forward to making them.

Craving satisfied.
I was craving a fresh baked hot cookie on top of cold ice cream for days now and I finally had it tonight. I made a small batch of vegan chocolate chip cookies in my airfryer and topped a little bowl of @benandjerrys non dairy chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. Yummy!

Jam Cake
Got this recipe for marmalade cake that was posted by @lavenderandlovage . I veganized it by using vegan yogurt for the eggs and vegetable oil for the butter and of course soymilk. Moist and tender and sweet with a light jammy flavor. I only had a bit of marmalade left so I added apricot and lingonberry jam as well. I brushed the top with melted apricot jam. π°π«
