Quick & Easy Tofu Scramble Recipe!

by , in

Fry's Traditional Vegan Sausages are amazing!! 


Tofu Scramble is my go to breakfast, because it's so quick & easy for something so delicious! It goes great with a vegan full English, and being someone who use to eat scrambled eggs all the time (I know; gross!), I am so happy that tofu exists! When I was vegetarian, I hated tofu! I can't believe that I never used it, because I use it so much now. It can be turned into so many different things. It's amazing. It's like a sponge; it will absorb any flavour you put onto it!

Vegan Tofu Bacon! (Yes... Tofu Bacon). Quick & Simple Recipes

by , in

I know, tofu. Some people are either fans or dislike it because they’ve either had it not very well cooked, or just the look of it can put them off. The thing with tofu is, it’s like a sponge; it will absorb any flavour you put onto it, so seasoning is essential when it comes to cooking tofu. Here I'm going to show you a really simple tofu bacon recipe. I've called it tofu bacon because it's the closest thing I can think of that replicates its crispness & smoky flavour. It also works great on a vegan BLT sandwich.

I've seen a lot of tofu presses online, and when I first started cooking with tofu I thought I needed to press tofu each time that I was going to cook with it, yet with this recipe I just pressed around the tofu with a piece of kitchen paper to absorb any excess water, and because of the ways that you can cook the tofu by using this recipe such as baking or frying, a lot of the initial moisture is cooked off.


The frying pan option is great if you would want to cook this very quickly, but I think you can get the best results from baking them in the oven, along with giving the tofu a more crispy texture, while also making this recipe oil-free...if you're into that.



You can also add this tofu bacon onto the top of your favourite vegan mac & cheese Recipe for mine here or add into salads for something extra.

Fluffy Vegan Pancakes! (Quick & Easy Recipe)

by , in

Here is a really fast and simple recipe for vegan pancakes, without the need of any animal ingredients, along without any vegan egg replacement, which I don't really ever use in my baking, because I’ve never had the need for them while making any recipe. These pancakes are great if you feel like a sweet treat to whip up in a really small amount of time! The ingredients for this recipe are things you will likely already have in your home, so these are something you can easily make for a dessert or  breakfast. Let's get started!

Essential
  • 1 ½ cups of Plain Flour
  • 1 tablespoon of Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon of Bicarbonate Of soda
  • 2 tablespoons of Sugar
  • 1 cup of Soya Milk or any milk alternative you prefer
Optional ingredients
  • Raspberries
  • Maple Syrup/Agave Syrup
  • Icing Sugar
First of all, place all of your dry ingredients into a mixing bowl (Plan flour, sugar, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda), and give them a mix. At this point, you can also add different flavourings such as cinnamon, nutmeg and any fruit you would like to add into them. You can really make this recipe your own. This is such a simple pancake mix, so you can add all of the different flavourings that you want.

Once you’ve mixed the dry ingredients, add your soya milk/milk alternative you prefer, and mix that until you have a thick batter. Try to remove as many lumps as you possibly can, but if some remain, don’t worry. Get a frying pan on a medium heat & add some spray oil or coconut oil. I use a sunflower spray oil. Use a ladle to spoon out equal sized portions of the batter, but you can also make these pancakes any size that you like. By doing this, you'll end up having a different amount of pancakes, but that depends how big or small you would like to make them.


 
  

Once cooking, when bubbles start to form on the top of the pancakes, this is the time to flip them onto the other side, and continue to cook for a further minute.


Simply just double the recipe if you would like to make more with this mixture, as I made 5 large pancakes by using a regular sized ladle.There are many toppings that you can use. I used maple syrup, raspberries & powdered sugar sprinkled onto the top of the pancakes, but you can use any toppings you like.
