I am going to preface this post – This recipe is adapted from Tacofino’s Chocolate Diablo Cookie. I do not take credit for the original recipe, however, I made simple modifications to make it plant-based. AND IT IS INCREDIBLE. (Shout out to Tacofino – Please make this vegan version available in your restaurants!) Check out […]

Vegan Portobello Breakfast Sandwich
How do make Vegan Breakfast Sandwiches? It’s almost like a challenge for me when I’m out to eat with friends and they apologize that I can’t eat what they are eating. No apologies needed because I’m going to recreate what you’re eating, make it even better, AND make it HEALTHY. That happened a few weeks […]
Vegan Kaiserschmarrn – Scrambled Pancakes
What is Kaiserschmarrn? Scrambled pancakes? Say whaaaaat? Well, it’s a thing. If you’re from Germany/Austria, it’s likely that you have heard of Kaiserschmarrn (Emperor’s Scramble). It’s basically scrambled pancakes with raisins, topped with a sprinkle of icing sugar, and enjoyed with canned peaches. It’s the ultimate comfort food for any German and SO SO GOOD. […]
Vegan Stollen
Here it is. My present to you, my fellow readers! This recipe is so very special to me because it is a veganized version of my mom’s Stollen cake. What is Stollen, you ask? It’s a traditional German Christmas cake/bread. It’s similar to a fruit cake but BETTER. It’s better because it has marzipan inside […]
Vegan Pumpkin Waffles
Wondering how to make vegan pumpkin waffles? I promise you won’t be disappointed with these. Waffles are a staple in our home! Usually, I make a giant batch of them on the weekend and store them in a giant tupperware container in the freezer to be popped into the toaster for a tasty morning breakfast. […]
Chocolate Cake
THIS CAKE!! I kid you not, it’s one of the BEST chocolate cakes I have ever had. I played around with ingredients that make it moist and perfected the right amount of avocado and apple sauce. IT’S SO GOOD!!!! I made it to have a little treat, post it on here, and eventually I turned […]
Cookies and Cream Cookies
I just realized this is my first cookie post. Considering my blog name, The Friendly Cookie, you would think there would have been a cookie recipe or two by now! The name stands for way more than my love of cookies though. I’m trying to live a friendly life, and by that I mean being […]
German Pretzel Buns
If you have been following my Instagram or previous blog recipes, such as my German Mac and Cheese (Nudelauflauf), you can probably guess that I come from a German family. I was born and raised in Canada, but I grew up eating traditional German foods. My blog inspiration comes from my comfort food, which includes […]
Classic Greek Salad
Generally, I forget about all the non-lettuce salad options! I have a garden full of lettuce, but for whatever reason I REALLY wanted a Greek Salad. I wanted it so much that I convinced my dad to let me make it for Father’s Day even though he insisted on making all the food himself! Pretty […]
Vanilla Layer Cake with No-Buttercream Frosting
Maybe June wasn’t the best time to plan for a Whole Food Plant-based Challenge with all the baby showers happening! Here I was thinking I could make these treats without taste testing, but I had no choice. I wanted to perfect this recipe, not only to make a perfect baby shower cake for the soon-to-be […]
