I posted these scones long ago when I first started my
Instagram account, and when I came across the photos in my computer last week, I remembered how delicious these scones were and just had to share the recipe.
I used to make a lot of treats like these when I first went vegan, and I really enjoyed (and still do enjoy) baking. I was living in a dorm room in Davis at the time, so weekends in Berkeley with my brother at his apartment were the only times that I was actually able to cook and bake in a comfortable kitchen. The dorms had a community kitchen, but it wasn't the same. When cooking and baking with a time constraint and, more often than not, in a kitchen full of people I did not even know, I wasn't able to
get in the zone if you feel me.
I have realized that cooking is very therapeutic for me, and if any of my readers have not spent time, alone, in the kitchen for a few hours on a saturday afternoon, I suggest you do so. It doesn't matter if you're a professional or amateur, the satisfaction of being able to create and enjoy something YOURSELF is an experience that never gets old. Use the time to mute out all of the stress and commotion in your life at the current moment and relax.
A healthy and delicious raw vegan carrot cake that is low in fat, gluten-free, and filled with nothing but the good stuff. Yes, you can have your cake AND eat it too AND feel amazing afterwords. You don't have to worry about any more of that "detoxing" nonsense after a long birthday weekend.
For my birthday this year, I made two low fat raw vegan desserts for my family and I to enjoy. The first was my Apple Rose Caramel Tart (above) and the second was these Carrot Cake Bites. You can read more about my birthday on my last post, including all of delicious meals I had, the cute vegan presents I received, and the amazing all fruit cake my aunt made me.
Root Beer and Coca Cola ice cream floats were where it was at when growing up. I used to attend a day care program after school and we had ice cream floats almost every Friday. I used to think it was the best thing ever...until I had this.
Having had learned of the {horrible} effects soda could have on our bodies, I vowed to never again have one. But, when they are served around me, I can't lie...I do tend to miss the floats quite a bit! Especially because I start to reminisce on my childhood. So in order to fullfill these cravings, what is there to do? What there always is to do in cases like this, veganize it. That term has been frequent for the past 3 years of my life, and forever will be. I love being able to veganize old favorites of mine. Not only do I have fun experimenting in the kitchen, but I love sharing my recipes with my family in hopes of bringing them one step closer to considering a plant-based diet.
Without further or do, I present to you my RAW and VEGAN Fruit Beer Float xx
