Our vegan baking recipes are ingenious in swapping out traditional ingredients with free-from alternatives to create genuinely indulgent treats that even non-vegans will love. We've got something for every occasion, too. Pick from a range of spectacular sponges, cupcakes and comforting puddings. Grab an apron and get stuck in!

Cherry & almond brownies

brownies-e3a3aff

Our decadent brownies are dairy-free with not an egg in sight and so simple to make. They're perfectly squidgy and ideal for bake sales, get-togethers or just to satisfy a serious chocolate craving. Adding a spoonful of coffee granules brings out the cocoa flavour. Avoid dry, disappointing brownies and treat yourself to a gooey masterpiece.

Rhubarb & custard bake

On a cold night, you'll appreciate this warming comfort food. Serve straight from the oven for Sunday pudding. Fresh rhubarb and soya custard form the base of this bake so expect a moist, rich sponge that everyone will demand seconds of.

Banana & peanut butter cupcakes

cupcake-47ebf43

Whip up these clever cupcakes using a few nifty vegan substitutes, but don't skimp on the dark chocolate chips, ripe bananas and smooth peanut butter icing. They add up to a classic flavour combination that makes for an unbeatable bake – and they're not overly sweet. No one will guess the secret ingredients…

Sticky toffee pear pudding

sticky-toffee-pear-pudding-69f9280

We said these were indulgent recipes and this sticky toffee twist will not disappoint. If you want something a little lighter than the traditional pudding but with just as much flavour, this spiced date pudding is ideal. The juicy texture of the poached pears is so unctuous as well. Serve warm from the oven with a scoop of vegan ice cream.

Carrot cake

vegan-carrot-cake-5d9ba8c

If you're looking for a slice of something classic, this one is for you. It's a simple sandwich cake with coconut and cashew icing that offers an ingenious twist on the traditional with just as much flavour. Enjoy with your afternoon cup of tea for maximum satisfaction.

Avocado chocolate cake

avocado-4f3f08e

Nobody in their right mind would ever turn down a slice of rich, fudgy chocolate cake – and this one is no exception. The avocado keeps the sponge soft and springy, and makes the rich chocolate frosting super smooth and glossy. It's also gluten-free but there is no skimping on flavour.

Try our avocado chocolate cake.

Banana & walnut loaf

vegan-banana-4968140

We love nothing more than a slice of warm banana bread with lashings of butter and a cup of coffee. This vegan loaf gets its sticky sweetness from dates as well as the bananas and added crunch from walnuts. You'll be making this one again and again.

Millionaire's bars

million-29a5022

These moreish slabs boast plenty of rich flavour with dates and maple syrup to give them their sticky, squidgy texture. This traybake is perfect for feeding a crowd and they're gluten-free to boot. You may want to make a couple of batches as they're likely to disappear quickly.

Try our millionaire's bars.

Salted caramel biscuit bars

salted-caramel-biscuit-bars-199847f

Three of our favourite words in one great bake: salted, caramel, biscuit. These are a healthier take on a classic recipe with wholesome ingredients and they're free from refined sugar and dairy. The 'caramel' is made with dates, peanut butter and coconut oil, plus a dash of almond milk.

Try our salted caramel biscuit bars.

Choc-cherry fudge torte

choc-e77b295

While gluten-free and dairy-free, this divine cake has great texture along with a pleasing balance of sweetness and sharpness using dried sour cherries, plenty of cocoa and a glug of brandy for good measure. Try serving with a zingy cherry sorbet for a restaurant-standard dessert.
