Vegan Carob Waffles

The delicious vegan Carob Waffle  (NOT Pancake) I have been publishing (and sampling) so many carob recipes lately that it was inevitable that I would next come up with a delicious carob waffle recipe-- our household LOVES a great waffle!

Mixed Berry Galette- Saskatoon-Blueberry-Strawberry Indulge in the exquisite simplicity of this delectable rustic galette – a tantalizing, topless pie adorned with a coconut oil-infused short crust. Crafting this culinary masterpiece is a breeze, offering a sumptuous blend of a rich, flaky crust and the vibrant flavors of seasonal berries. (Frozen berries work well too!) As the prospect of a bountiful berry harvest looms, I've taken inspiration to elevate this galette to new heights.

Explore the genesis of this creation through glimpses of our thriving berry bushes nestled at the bottom of this recipe.
