FESTIVE PANCAKE PIE

by Leave a Comment

FAMILY.EAT.PLANT. holds a special place in our hearts. We wrote it for all kinds of families and we celebrated our own: those who enrich our lives, those who are no longer with us and those who would still come. Meanwhile, Maartje has given birth to a beautiful, healthy boy and Lisette celebrates the beautiful memories of Pooh that warm her heart every day.

And to celebrate that Maartje just became a mother, we wanted to share this delicious recipe from our book by our dear friend Anouk.

Anouk, the mother of 5, likes to make this festive pancake pie for her children and they love it! Of course, you can also use the basis of this recipe to make a regular stack of pancakes. The different flours make for a great batter.

PUPCAKES

by Leave a Comment

Dear peeps,

We have let our minds wander in regards to the new reality we are finding ourselves in and to say it with the words of Zach Bush (check out his posts!): We ‘strongly believe there is too much bandwidth of the collective human consciousness spent on this topic’ so we are not gonna add anything to that besides a few things:

1. The Dutch Weed Burger just posted an amazing article on their blog that to us says it all.

2. We are not quite sure if we will be able to continue our friday posts during the coming period, but will do our best to offer easy and delicious plant based inspiration, maybe through our stories.

3. Because we see a lot of sadness on social media right now we thought this recipe might cheer you up a bit. Just because a smile can do so much for yourself, your body and the world around you.

We created these Pupcakes in service of World Animal Protection and you can find the recipe here in Dutch. If you need English, Google is your friend ;-). These vegan puppy dogs are worth a translation.

Stay safe!

Maartje & Lisette

Oliebollen are sort of a Dutch version of the American donut holes. The Dutch traditionally eat oliebollen at New Year’s Eve. This special and epic version is made with sparkly apple cider. You may find yourself eating them by the dozen, so beware. Use a nice artisan yeasty cider for extra flavour.

VEGAN BANANAS FOSTER

by Leave a Comment

This BANANAS FOSTER recipe is FIRE. Literally. You get to play with fire (RESPONSIBLY, OK???). This classic recipe veganized makes for a truly dramatic display as once you do some easy prep to combine the deceptively simple ingredients together with a bit of rum, you flambé the whole thing. Listen to your guests OOOH and AAAH as the rum cooks off with the glow of a blue flame, leaving an utterly delectable toasty caramelly sauce coating the bananas. Serve it the traditional way with your fave vegan vanilla ice cream or atop our Mancakes (recipe in book). Either way, for such a fancy lookin’ recipe, all you need is some basic ingredients and a few minutes for it all to come together.
