4. Frankenstein Smoothie Bowl

To make your smoothie bowl, all you need is:

• Vegan Protein Blend
• Oat milk
• 1 banana
• 1 tsp. Organic Cacao Powder

5. Spooky 3-Ingredient Brownie Bites

This recipe is the go-to for those with less time on their hands. With only three main ingredients, they can be whipped up in a matter of minutes – ideal if you forgot to prepare something for a Halloween party.

INGREDIENTS

• 130g raw hazelnuts
• 130g pitted dates
• 2 tbsp. Organic Cacao Powder
• Dash of water

METHOD

1. Blend all ingredients until they are thoroughly mixed and form a smooth paste.
2. Using a spoon, scoop out the mixture into even-sized portions.
3. Roll each portion into balls between your hands. You can use flour or make your hands slightly damp to prevent the balls from sticking to your palms.
4. Decorate into Halloween themed snacks – you can use some of the ideas below for inspiration.
5. Eat straight away or store in the fridge for later.

These delicious snack balls are so versatile, you can decorate them however you like. Here are some of our favourite Halloween ideas:

Eyeballs – Coat the bites with vegan white chocolate and decorate with a slice of strawberry and a raisin in the centre for the “eyeball’s pupil”.

Bats – Use sugar-paper (or cardboard for a non-edible alternative) and cut out bat wings which you can stick into either side of the brownie bites with cocktail sticks. The bites are the perfect shape for a cute, edible bat snack!

Spiders – Vegan strawberry or liquorice laces make the perfect sugary legs needed to turn your brownie bites immediately into scary spiders. Chop the laces into 8 equal lengths and push them into the brownie bite (spider’s body). You could also add two seeds or cacao nibs to give them eyes.

Pumpkins – Coat each snack in orange icing or orange vegan chocolate, and use a cocktail stick to draw in the signature grooves of a pumpkin. Push a pumpkin seed into the top of each one to give you the pumpkin stem and voila – edible, tasty, Halloween pumpkins!

6. Scary Fruit and Veggies

7. Witches Green Vegan Cheesecake

8. Blueberry Pumpkin Muffins

Make the most of pumpkin season by using them in your baking. Pumpkins are an amazing, nutrient-dense fruit (yes – it’s technically a fruit!) and are especially high in vitamin A. These blueberry pumpkin muffins are delicious cold or warm, straight out of the oven. You can add your own winter spice mix to give it an extra seasonal taste.

Vegan pancakes are one of the best, high-protein breakfasts or desserts, and this doesn’t change over the Halloween season. Get creative with some dark fruits like blackberries, blueberries, and cherries, to give your pancakes a darker twist for Halloween. You can even make scary zombie faces with individual pancakes, with the fruit juices acting as fake blood.

4. Once bubbles appear and the pancake edges are easy to lift, flip the pancakes over to cook the other side.
5. Stack your pancakes and add your toppings or decorate your Halloween pancakes with scary faces!

11. Pancake Animals

Forget whoever said you can’t play with your food! You can cut up your pancakes and stack them carefully to create your favourite animals. Use each half of a pancake to make eats and cacao buttons as eyes. You could also use pancake halves to create dinosaur spines or wings. Why not try using red berry juice or strawberry sauce as fake blood,  for an extra-scary Halloween twist.

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 scoops Vegan Pancake Mix
• 100-125ml water
• Oil
• Favourite toppings

METHOD:

1. Blend 2 scoops of Vegan Pancake Mix with the water to form a smooth batter.
