Sunday soul food – pancakes. But not just any pancakes; these are our favorite traditional Finnish spinach pancakes (vegan, gf)! The original recipe, like many pancake recipes, contains eggs, milk and regular wheat flour. I make pancakes in an entirely different way focusing on plant-based wholefood ingredients. I didn’t even use any flour, just oats….

HOT CHOCOLATE OATMEAL
Hiya! It’s still winter here, and I’m eating warm oatmeal almost every morning. Sometimes as an evening snack too, as it’s so comforting and cozy. And besides, the tryptophan in oats helps me sleep better. This hot chocolate oatmeal contains one very special ingredient. Perhaps a surprising ingredient, although it’s definitely not a new one…
GREEN SUMMER CHIA PUDDING
If you love avocado, leafy greens and fresh herbs – this is the Best Green Summer chia pudding for you! This is a simple recipe, takes about 10 minutes to make, and is super nourishing for an afternoon pick-me-up snack or brekkie.
CREAMY STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB OVERNIGHT OATS
I saw the first rhubarb recipes popping on my Instagram feed already about two months ago, but here in Finland the rhubarb season is a bit later. This Creamy strawberry-rhubarb overnight oats recipe is inspired by beautiful rhubarb straight from our garden (just a little bit excited – it’s the first time ever I have my…
PORRIDGE FOR BREAKFAST, LUNCH, SNACK AND DESSERT

This vegan gluten-free fruit and nut bread with chocolate butter is really something else. It’s more in the dessert for breakfast category than plain brekkie one, and I couldn’t ask for more. I’m…
CARAMEL APPLE PANCAKES
My whole family loves pancakes (who doesn’t?!) and could eat them every day – especially if yummy toppings and sauces are involved. As our weekdays are kind of hectic I only make pancakes on very special slow & lazy weekend mornings. One special pancake Sunday is soon here: we celebrate Father’s Day in Finland next Sunday….
SOFT LICORICE PORRIDGE WITH LEMON CREAM
I had the pleasure of participating in a seasoning challenge hosted by Urtekram brand. One of the spices I chose was raw licorice powder. I’m a huge fan of anything licorice flavored (sweet, salty, strong..anything goes!), but I know not everyone is. So I wanted to create an appealing recipe for all porridge lovers, so…
BEET-CARROT GRANOLA WITH MAGICAL CASHEW CREAM
Healthy. Wholesome. All natural. This beet-carrot granola with magical cashew cream was born out of a huge desire to create a super healthy veggie-filled crunchy & sweet granola and something crazy amazing to go with it. As you can see from the image, there’s a reason to call this creamy cashew magical 🙂
CREAMY LEMON CASHEW YOGURT
Follow my blog with BloglovinHappy days in the kitchen – I had a little eager helper and we made the most beautiful yogurt I’ve ever seen (not going to be modest here). Just look at the color – isn’t it striking? We’ve made a plain white version of the same cashew yogurt many times now, but to…
