A slice anyone? If you’re into pumpkin spice and just about anything pumpkin then this will satisfy those tastebuds. Don’t fret this coffee cake is gluten free but also refined sugar free including the icing! I say two slices to go with that cup of joe coffee ☕️ It’s quite addictive! 😬
💜GF Pumpkin Coffee Cake

Batter:
2 cups GF flour
3 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 cup organic pumpkin purée
1 stick vegan butter (8 Tbsp) room temperature
2 cups monkfruit sweetener
2 flax eggs (2 Tbsp flax meal + 6 Tbsp water)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup almond milk
Streusel:
12 Tbsp cold vegan butter, cubed
1 1/2 cups coconut sugar
1 1/2 cups GF flour,
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp Pumpkin Spice
Glaze:
1 cup monkfruit powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla bean powder
1-2 Tbsp almond milk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9×13 baking dish with aluminum foil or parchment paper & spray with cooking spray, set aside. In a small measuring cup add flax meal & water stir and let sit for 10 minutes while you prepare the rest. You will need 3 medium sized bowls.
1ST BOWL- whisk together flour, baking powder & salt.

2ND BOWL- add pumpkin purée, mix in soft butter until combined & then mix in sugar, flax, milk, & vanilla. Next add in flour mixture (1st bowl) & mix until combined.

3RD BOWL - prepare the streusel by combining all the ingredients, cut the butter in with a pastry cutter or a fork until a coarse crumb forms.
Pour 1/2 of the batter of 2nd bowl into the prepared pan. Top with 1/3 of the crumb mixture of 3rd bowl. Cover the filling with the remaining batter (2nd bowl) and top with remaining crumb mixture (3rd bowl). Bake for 50-55 minutes until the center is set and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for about 30 minutes before glazing!
Mix together the glaze ingredients and drizzle over the cake before serving. Enjoy!

Hey guys! I feel compelled to share a little about my personal journey for those who are new and yet to know the person behind the recipes and pie making.
I was born in San Diego and I’ve been living in LA since 2008. It was here in LA where I was exposed to eating plant based. It was a lifestyle that I entertained off & on over the years & intuitively felt so good to me. To my soul & to my heart. It wasn’t until I got my first dog in 2016 that I decided to go fully plant based. Sierra the golden retriever was my influencing factor in my decision to adopt this lifestyle completely. Loving her catapulted me into loving all animals the same. Not just her. It just made so much sense to me. I’ve been eating plant based since and I feel so freakin good. Because I don’t omit honey I fall under the category of “plant based” rather than “vegan”. Essentially that’s the only non-Vegan ingredient I use.
Why plant based? For me the top three are animal compassion, for the planet, and for disease and illness prevention. I won’t share in what order of importance it is for me as it doesn’t matter. I’m doing my part to contribute to the healing of the planet, self & for the love of all living creatures (humans included) and thats what truly matters to me. I love ALL people plant based or meat eaters. I do not judge nor discriminate. I believe in respecting everyones unique path & their contribution to this earth even in the most minimal way. High five if you’re recycling or finding alternatives for non-biodegradable products. It’s a collective approach people and positive encouragement is very effective for the long run. So if you’re following me for plant based/vegan inspiration great and if your not any of these I won’t judge. Rigid is not my vibe my friends. Excited to continue sharing more of this journey with you!

Brunch with dear friends is always the best way to do Sundays or any days ☺️
Today we enjoyed sweet potato waffles reminiscent of the season we are about to enter. These sweet pumpkin spiced waffles are best enjoyed with a drizzle of maple syrup, vegan butter, berries & non-dairy whipped cream! My palate also loves some savory dishes to accompany the sweet so here you have some turmeric tofu scramble. Happy Sunday! 💜
Recipe to be shared soon!

Want to eat more fresh veggies but don’t know what ingredients to combine? Here’s a really easy salad and dressing that you can put together for either lunch or dinner. The sautéed chickpeas are super yummy on this salad so I’d recommend not omitting this step! So scrumptious!
Mediterranean Salad w/Grilled Chickpeas (2 servings)
🌿6 leaves Romaine lettuce.
🌿10-12 Cherry tomatoes.
🌿2 Tbsp Red onion, thinly sliced.
🌿2 Persian cucumbers.
🌿1 Tbsp Parsley, chopped.
🌿1/2 cup canned chickpeas.
🌿2 Tbsp Hummus (optional).
Slice the tomatoes in half. Slice cucumbers in 1/4 round slices. Chop romaine to liking. In a small sauce pan, heat 1 Tbsp olive oil over medium high heat. Add chickpeas. Add garlic salt, sumac or Za’tar spice. Alternatively you can use paprika. Fry chickpeas for 5 minutes until evenly browned/toasted. Remove from heat and place in paper towel lined bowl until ready to plate your dish. While they are cooking make dressing.
Herb Dressing:
🌿3 Tbsp Olive oil.
🌿1 Tbsp Lemon.
🌿1/4 tsp ground Oregano.
🌿1/4 tsp Sumac or Za’tar spice or combination of both.
🌿Sea salt & pepper to taste.
Add all ingredients to a small jar. Close with lid and shake vigorously until well combined. Add about 2 Tbsp to bowl of salad ingredients and toss to coat evenly. Reserve the remainder of dressing for another meal.
Plating your dish:
Smear 1 Tbsp of hummus on each bowl. Add tossed salad to bowl. Next add the cooked chickpeas. Serve with pita chips if desired. Enjoy!!
