Vegan Strawberry + Basil Ice Cream
Every Spring and Summer, I look forward to strawberries popping up all over the farmer’s market.

Summer Blackberry + Thyme Chia Jam
One of my biggest sources of inspiration when testing out new recipe ideas is the seasons.

Brown Butter Banana Bread
I love banana bread – it is such a treat to have it with a cup of coffee in the morning, or a sweet pick me up for any time of day! I have played around with a number of banana bread recipes, trying recipes with whole wheat flour, then with regular flour, recipes with…
