Always drooling over our recipes but not making them as often as you save them? Us too, but this month you might be in luck. Two of our top 5 winners from January are selling their gourmet delights. You can order the No Bake Banofee Pies if you are near Newcastle from Hayley at @thecleantreatlady and if you’re near Adelaide, Cloe @capriciouscloe will make you a pretty generous jar of her granola for $5. All other locations get back into the kitchen – and if you live near our office give us a shout and we will place orders ; )

@capriciouscloe – Vegan Breakfast Apple Crumble
This brekkie took me about 5 minutes. This morning I used my mum’s new microwave (oh the novelty) to soften a chopped apple with lemon juice and cinnamon, then topped it with @purecocobella natural coconut yogurt and a generous handful of the yummy granola I made earlier this week. Easy, tasty, and rich in good vibes. My kind of breakfast!
Ingredients
- One chopped apple softened in microwave or stovetop in lemon juice and cinnamon,
- As much @purecocobella natural coconut yogurt as you choose
- A generous chunk of Cloe’s home-made Granola:
Cloe’s Home Made Granola
Ingredients
- 100g rolled oats (30g blended into a flour, 70g whole)
- 20g almond meal
- 25g shredded coconut
- 20g Tropeaka vanilla protein powder (or vegan protein powder of choice)
- 25g almonds, roughly chopped Cinnamon to taste Salt to taste
- 20g honey or rice malt syrup for vegan
- 30g coconut oil, melted
- 15g cacao nibs Method- Preheat the oven to 180C.
Method
- Mix all the dry ingredients except the cacao nibs in a large bowl until thoroughly combined and use a spatula to fold through the coconut oil and honey until everything is coated. The ground oats and almond meal should clump together into delicious chunks!
- Spread the mixture onto a lined baking tray, and bake for 10 minutes.
- Use a spatula to flip the granola and mix it around in order to get it evenly golden, then place back in the oven for another 5-10 minutes.
- Keep a close eye on it, as it can get dark quite quickly! Once at the right colour for you, allow it to cool, before mixing through the cacao nibs.
- Store in an airtight container.
