This year, I’ve been trying to convert my favourite recipes from the blog to vegan recipes. Today, it was time to work on Dad’s carrot cake, which was not only transformed to vegan but was also made in muffin moulds—and of course, this recipe had to be festive, since Easter is coming. So, these vegan carrot muffins are so fluffy, ...
The almond flour banana bread (which can also be made with all-purpose flour) is among my top 5 favourite recipes here. So, I decided to make vegan banana bread, with only natural sweeteners—the ultimate baby-friendly recipe! So, what do we have here? Tasty vegan banana bread with dates made from oats, with no eggs, no dairy, no sugar, no butter, ...
The little hands love breadsticks, it’s one of his favourite snacks, so when I make them, I choose a vegetable as a base. The vegetable breadsticks definitely have more nutritional value, while they’re delicious without needing too many ingredients. This time, along with the little hands, we made sweet potato whole-wheat flour breadsticks, and we loved them. They’re crunchy breadsticks ...
Completely spontaneously and with no preparation, I’m sharing one of Grandma’s recipes today, one that we adapted to the little hands. Semolina halva is one of the recipes traditionally eaten in Greece during the Great Lent. But it’s also one of my mother’s most successful and beloved dishes, so it’s time to make it a different way. For our needs, ...
Energy balls are one of the easiest, quickest, and most nutritious snacks you can prepare, for kids and adults.

What happens when the little hands ask for Grandma’s olive oil cookies that have 2 cups of sugar? You roll up your sleeves, put on your apron, and start experimenting! The biggest challenge was to make them taste exactly like Grandma’s, while still being Mom’s, that is, healthy and sugar-free. Every time a batch came out of the oven, the ...
I’ve written often that the little hands love breadsticks, and when I thought that he had found his favourite ones in the zucchini and anthotyros breadsticks, these tomato breadsticks came to defeat them! Little hands loved them! So, what should a breadstick be? It should be crunchy, and it should make you want one more, and one more, and one ...
Pancakes are always a great breakfast idea, and as you well know by now, the little hands love them. In today’s version, I made them gluten-free (since I try to avoid it), as well as dairy-free, egg-free, butter-free, and always, always sugar-free. A vegan version that is in no way inferior to normal recipes, since it makes delicious and fluffy ...
The truth is that I don’t often cook fava, a Greek dish that’s essentially split pea puree, even though I really like it. So, when Grandma sent us some split peas, I was glad. The little hands had (unsuccessfully) tried some once in the past, and it was a good chance to try again. It proved to be a monumental ...
