You might call them fruit crisps, crumbles or cobblers, but whatever name you choose, these dishes are versatile, warming and easy to make. In many ways, the offer the same comfort that you would get from a pie but involve considerably less effort. At the same time, they can even be healthier because the topping often includes healthy ingredients, such as oats, and will tend to be lower in fat than the crust of a pie.

The thing that I love the most about crumbles is simply that they work so well at any point during the day. Many crumble recipes are healthy enough that you could have them for breakfast, while the dish also works well as a dessert at the end of the day, especially if you add in a dollop of vegan ice cream.

With a vegan diet, there are some foods that you end up missing more than others. Without a doubt, ice cream is one of those foods that people feel that they can’t live without. Thankfully, there are a number of different ways to make vegan ice cream. Many of the recipes out there will give you a similar taste and texture to regular ice cream, without using any dairy at all. Additionally, some of those recipes even end up being healthier, which is a nice added bonus.

Sometimes it seems like there are just too many options for dessert. After all, there are probably millions of different dessert recipes out there, including a large number that cater for the needs of vegans. How do you choose? Sometimes, it’s a matter of simply going back to the basics and by back to the basics – I’m thinking brownies.

Without a doubt, brownies make for a pretty popular dessert. In most cases, they’re fairly easy to make and many people simply rely on boxed brownie mixes. It’s even possible to make vegan brownies using a boxed mix, if you make a few adjustments and pick the right base mix.
