Chocolate chip cookies are so popular among vegetarians. I should think so! You can hardly find a person that doesn’t like chocolate and meals that include it. This recipe does not include any eggs. And you will need no more than 40 minutes to make your family happy.

Ingredients:

3/4 c. applesauce
2 tbsp. organic canola oil
3/4 c. grade B maple syrup (or 1/2 c. sugar and 1/2 c. brown sugar)
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. cinnamon (optional)
1/2 tsp. salt
2 c. spelt flour or whole wheat flour
1/4 c. instant oats (or 1 individual serving size package instant oatmeal, uncooked)
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 c. raisins

Choose vegan chocolate chips if you want your cookies to be vegan. Before you start turn your oven on at 350 F. Mix together oil, applesauce, and maple syrup. After that add the rest of the ingredients except chocolate chips and raisins. They will go in the last turn. Mix it all together until “just mixed.”

Scoop 2 tbsp. sized globs of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges of the cookies are golden.

Muffin is a type of dessert that is mostly served hot for breakfast. But it doesn’t mean that you can’t have a couple of them for lunch. To make 20 muffins you will need:

250 g butter
220 g caster sugar
4 eggs
750 g self raising flour
375 ml soured cream
500 ml cooked carrot puree
60 g chopped nuts (if desired)

You will also need orange rind and vanilla. These two ingredients will give your muffins incredible and at the same time gentle smell. Mix them with butter and sugar to get a fluffy mass. Continue mixing and simultaneously add the eggs, the flour, soured cream, and carrot puree. Spoon the mixture into greased muffin tins, and sprinkle with nuts. Bake them at 350F for about 25 minutes. When they are ready they turn a golden color.

Chocolate Sauce for Sweet Teeth Vegetarians

This simple, but tasty chocolate sauce can stand you a good stead when you want to surprise your guests and make the taste of cake, coffee, fruit, or nondairy ice-cream a bit more ‘elegant’.
To make this sauce it’ll take you a little time and several ingredients:

1/2 cup Dutch cocoa powder
1/2 cup maple syrup (light or dark)
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
3 Tbsp. soy milk

Mix together the first three ingredients. Make sure you get indiscrete mass as a result. Then put it all in a small saucepan, and watch it simmer for about 2 minutes. Don’t forget to stir the mass in order not to burn the chocolate. In 2 minutes put the saucepan aside, and stir in the soy milk. When it’s done pour the chocolate into squeeze bottles for later use.
