✨Plant-Based Layered Vanilla Mini Cakes✨

All scratch-made, πŸ’―% plant-based deliciousness. I decided to create and layer the cakes with Strawberry Buttercream - made using fresh organic strawberries - then, topped with Creamed Chocolate Ganache, organic fresh strawberry, and organic mint leaf for garnish.

I created these plant-based cakes for a fantastic event in partnership with Chef Shujuan Washington, owner of Sankofa Catering and Special Events. As a plant-based baker and chef, it was a great pleasure to serve alongside several other amazing chefs and the Sankofa staff for this formal event hosting over 500 GUESTS!

What an enormous blessing it is that our world is full of nutrient-dense, plant-based ingredients we get to use to create exciting, healthful, delicious foods.

✨ Portobello-Black Bean Veggie Burger✨

Well-seasoned, with added fresh veggies, and sandwiched between a lightly toasted, scratch-made, freshly milled, ancient Kamut, whole grain burger bun (see previous post). I topped it with homemade, RAW, plant-based Chipotle Aioli Sauce and Amino-Lime Guacamole, then finished with caramelized onions.

I officially began baking fresh breads when I was 13 years old (family holiday rolls was my primary jam lol), but, it wasn't until 2019 when I began milling whole grains to create nutrient-packed, fresh, whole grain flours for baking, as well as, creating artisan breads to nourish my loved ones and, now, for my vegan bakery. I haven't purchased commercially processed breads since 2019, when I educated myself and was then gifted an amazing grain mill.

Freshly milled, organic wheat is different from wheat flour you buy in the store which has been stripped of key nutrients and is the primary reason so many people cannot tolerate wheat.

By milling/grinding whole grains into flour and using it for freshly baking, the whole grain flour retains an extremely high nutrient profile, including B vitamins, Vitamin E, beneficial fiber and more. Of 44 essential nutrients for life, only 4 of them are missing in wheat: Vitamins A, B12, and C, and the mineral iodine.

The process of commercial milling does not retain all the nutrients. About 86% of nutrients are lost through commercial milling when the bran and germ are stripped away, which are the primary sources of dietary fiber, a crucial nutrient aiding in the prevention and treatment of acute or chronic constipation (which is typically a symptom of another underlying health issue).

Commercially milled flours begin to oxidize rapidly, leaving the bags of flour we see on the shelves at grocery stores and markets, oxidized and nutrient-depleted. Most commercial flours are labeled and marketed as "enriched", DECEPTIVELY giving consumers the impression that vital nutrients which were lost during processing were completely added back into the flour.

"Enrichment” does add an amount of those depleted nutrients (except riboflavin) back to that of the whole grain - to three times the original level - but, compared to the whole grain, the "enriched" product remains urgently deficient in fiber, protein value, and 18 vitamins and minerals.

As a grain-milling, plant-based, bread artisan, there's so much more about this I could speak on, but I'll stop here...for now ☺️. I've included a video of how I freshly milled ancient Kamut whole grains for creating burger buns and my next post will show one of the delicious ways I enjoy serving them.

This RAW, plant-based, strawberry/blueberry cheesecake is an absolute flavorful dream on the palate. Very well-balanced levels, including creamed strawberry and blueberry, delicately swirled into the smooth, rich, sweet, decadent filling, which is created with cashews. NO animal products are used in this raw, plant-based cheesecake. It's really quite extraordinary the boundless flavor profile that a few common, healthful ingredients can create.

I added an additional flair by creating and garnishing with agave sweetened Raw Whipped Strawberry Cacao-Butter and Raw Date-Glazed Blueberries and Goji Berries.

Ajamu has always enjoyed a daily fruit/veggie smoothie since he was a wee one. It's an excellent way to help ensure optimal daily nutrient intake, along with nutrient-dense, scratch meals and snacks that I prepare. I've always homeschooled him, which makes it much easier to nurture and meet his nutritional needs through healthy, plant-based, whole foods.

Today's mid-morning fruit smoothie was fresh Mango-Banana, with kiwi, blueberries, and topped with Agave Candied Raspberries I made as a sweet treat, just because.

My haul a few days ago; I'm developing new, intuitive recipes this week! ✨

For me, creating food recipes, cooking, baking, and chefing is an expression of care and nurturing that addresses some of our basic needs as humans: food, security, and Love. I am really looking forward to diving into all of this to see where the journey leads me. Stay tuned!

✨Savory Kale and Wild Mushrooms with Quinoa✨

Topped with fermented tomatoes and red onion, and served with from-scratch, Sprouted Whole Grain Frybread. This dish carries so much down-home, savory, comforting flavor - it made me joyfully wiggle my toes while eating!

I will create a separate post with more details of how I created the sprouted frybread.

As a bread artisan, I get to experience my imagination run wild while creating authentic, hand-crafted breads, using earthy spices, herbs, and many other plant-sourced enhancements and flavorings, that are also high in nutritive value, just as our ancestors did during ancient times.

✨Organic Vegan Cacao Sourdough Boule✨

Created using sprouted spelt and kamut berries I milled for fresh, nutrient-dense flours. Pan-toasted, layered with scratch-made, RAW, vegan, cashew cream cheese, a light balsamic sautΓ©e blend of fresh spinach, with crimini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms, sprinkle of Himalayan salt, and topped with homemade, perfectly fermented, RAW veggies.

RAW, cultured veggies + cultured artisan bread, always create layers of exquisite, complex flavors that are nutrient-packed and immensely enjoyable.

Vegan Blueberry Lemon Crunch Jumbo Muffins!

I decided to hop in my "test-kitchen" to make a few enhancements to my original blueberry muffin recipe and I'm very pleased with the result!

Well-balanced, unrefined sweetness, a soft, tender, moist "crumb", with juicy blueberries in every bite, and the buttery, crunchy contrast of the crumb topping definitely takes this customer favorite to the next-level.

Dinner was served!

Vegan Quinoa Stir Fry, with seasonal fresh veggies, topped with crispy cauliflower and crispy wild mushrooms, coated with chickpea flour I freshly milled. Balanced, "umami-inspired" seasonings and flavor...so freakin' delicious! This dish is also gluten-free, alkaline and, of course, made with a ton of Love.

Vegan Sprouted Artisan Boule

It was also an ideal, chilly afternoon for hanging out at home in my practice lab playing in dough.πŸ€ΈπŸΎβ€β™€οΈ

I created this loaf using sprouted, freshly milled, spelt and hard red flours, topped with poppy and sesame seeds for added nutrition. 🌾🌱

Prior to baking, I dusted with an alkaline, gluten-free casava flour to make "scoring" of the dough easier. Scoring is to make cuts (or designs) in the dough with a sharp bread lamΓ©, just before putting in the oven. This is done for aesthetics, but, most importantly to promote rising of the loaf as it bakes.

When the Farmer's Table invited my bakery to participate in their Fall Festival over the weekend, I knew I wanted to create something different than my bakery's vegan goods already offered in their fabulous cafΓ© and bakery.

So, my creative juices started flowing and, alas!....I decided it would be a great time to create a new festive selection of vegan (V) and gluten-free (GF) cupcakes for the people! So I got busy...

Pictured (l-r):

*Jumbo Pumpkin Spice Cupcake with Pure Maple Buttercream Frosting, dusted with cinnamon (V, GF)

*Jumbo Vanilla "Birthday Cake" with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting and Veggie Sprinkles (V, GF)

*Red Velvet Cupcake with Vanilla Buttercream and Red Velvet Crumb Topping (V)

As usual, I handcrafted these goodies using the highest quality ingredients, unrefined sugars (including my from-scratch buttercream), and NO chemical dyes. I created the traditional look for the vegan Red Velvet Cupcakes by using high quality beet root powder. The result was well-worth the process.

The vibes of the festival were so awesome and cupcakes tend to bring such joy to people, especially those who have food sensitivities. I'm very happy to be of service this way!

I arrived at the festival with 120 cupcakes in tow and sold out in 2 hours 30 minutes. Not too shabby! My mentor advised me my personal goal should be to sell out even faster next time. Duly noted!
