Halloweegan Coasters and Napkin Rings!

Follow this link for more vegan Halloween recipes! OK. After this I'm all Halloween-crafted out! These felt coasters are very easy to make, but if you're a little obsessed with neat stitches it can be very time consuming. But then again there's always felt glue which would make these the speediest coasters ever! Basement Cat! I ain't afraid of no ghost Frankie say relax! Yet another dead dude Spider man, spider man... You like? If you want to make your own, here are the spooky designs: Little characters, small circle for plastic lining, big circle for felt. Print out the patterns that I so kindly and generously shared (what?) and cut out all the little characters. Trace them on Halloween colored felt and cut them out. Sew the little details (eyes, noses, etc) to the main faces like this: (you will also need to do some backstitching for the spider's legs, the cat's whiskers, and Frankie's mouth) Done? Also trace and cut 1

Coconut Oil Shortbread

UPDATE! I made a similar version of these but it's a tiny batch that you can bake in a toaster oven. Check out these Small-Batch Chocolate Covered Cookies ! Is vegan butter available where you live? I never take my precious Earth Balance for granted and it would break my heart (or my belly) if I ever had to give it up. A few weeks ago, Yvonne left me a comment asking about the biscuits that I showed in my quince post . I gave Yvonne the recipe and told her that I made them with Earth Balance. Yvonne didn't let the fact that Earth Balance is not available in the Netherlands deter her from making biscuits, and she went ahead and kicked some biscuit butt with coconut oil instead. Yeah! So now I'm sharing a recipe for my favorite cookie, but made with coconut oil instead of Earth Balance: shortbread! This one's for you, Yvonne! Coconut Oil Shortbread (14-16 single cookies) 1/2 cup refined coconut oil at room temperature* 1/4 cup sugar 2 tsp vanilla extrac

Mashed Potato Snowmen (Video!)

Happy Holidays! Merry Christmas! Happy Festivus! Happy Bah, Humbug day! Should we celebrate with some Mashed Potato Snowmen? I think these are a bit cuter than my first ever mashed potato snowmen that I made in 2008 . Those had black olive smiles and hats though, and these have no smiles or hats, so maybe the older ones were cuter? Mr. Wing-It said they looked like chubby little birds. I kind of see it! Anyway, these guys have peppercorn eyes, tiny baby carrot noses, steamed green bean scarves, peppercorn buttons, and parsley arms. Do I really need to tell you what that little muffin-shaped meatless meatloaf is? It's The PPK's beet burger recipe baked in muffin tins at 375 degrees F for about 20 minutes. Me? Obsessed with a recipe? Never. "Steamed green bean" was too much for me to handle. Pea buttons are also cute! Black eyed pea buttons! They can also have pea eyes instead of peppercorn eyes, if you fear an unsuspecting toddler might eat th

Halloweegan Dead Man Burgers!

Follow this link for more vegan Halloween recipes! This is possibly one of my favorite Halloweegan treats ever! It's like some sort of voodoo burger! Chomp chomp chomp! At first it was just going to be a normal bun, but ha! I laugh at normality! Honestly, the whole thing looked like a turtle at first. So Mr. Wing-It said what if you could make the bun look like a mouth eating the dead dude? By golly, I married an evil genius! So I grabbed the mustard and the ketchup, and drew eyes on the bun. Huge difference! It sure didn't look like a turtle anymore. Test run. Mr. Wing-It's genius idea But because we didn't have any lettuce to make it purdy, plus I wanted to make the bun look like it had monstery teeth, the original Dead Man Burger was deemed just a test run. The second batch of Dead Man Burgers had toothy buns, which were easy to make by cutting the front of the bun in a zigzag motion instead of a straight cut, like the rest of the bun. Use a smal

Pumpkin-Shaped Pumpkin Dinner Rolls

Hold on to your bandwidth because this is a picture-heavy post! Today I have such a lovely recipe to share! Hey, American peeps who are celebrating Thanksgiving this week: do you know what type of dinner roll you're going to be baking to accompany your feast? How 'bout these adorable pumpkin-shaped Pumpkin Dinner Rolls ? *squeeeeee* How cute are these little guys? I love them!! The recipe that I used does call for butter, milk, and one egg, but replacing the butter and milk is a non-issue, right? Almond milk and vegan butter. Done. To replace the egg I did three things: I replaced some of the almond milk with coconut milk for extra fattiness, I mixed in some bread flour for extra binding action, and I added a little bit of turmeric powder for extra yellowness. Let me break it down precisely in case you want to make these too: 1. Instead of 3/4 cup of milk, I used 1/2 cup almond milk and 1/4 cup full-fat coconut milk. 2. I used 3 1/2 cups of regular all purpose flour a
