Dessert and Drink Recipes

A dairy-free refrigerator does not need to mean you need to miss out on delicious desserts. Here you will find vegan and plant based desserts. They are simple to make with a minimum of  specialist equipment. Many will not require advanced baking skills, however, when you are ready to go to the next level you will find more technical recipes here too.

You will also find drink recipes, many inspired by foraged ingredients. Enjoy!
