The main ingredients for these delicious vegan, gluten-free pumpkin cookies include unsweetened pumpkin, GF flour, coconut oil, nuts (walnuts, almonds, macadamias) and/or seeds (pumpkin, sunflower).

The recipe includes specific recommendations for certain ingredients, including the sweetener.

"And don't you love the idea of eating a cookie for breakfast? They're like a biscuit/cookie/granola hybrid. Super weird and hippy dippy, but really good. Plus they're pumpkin spice, and it's Fall according to my Fall-O-Meter. Pumpkin all the things!"

Raw Walnut Coffee Cake with a Brownie Base from One Green Planet

This sumptuous, raw vegan dessert features walnuts, hazelnuts, frozen bananas, dates, cacao powder and butter, flax seeds, and espresso shots.

Raw dessert making tip from recipe author Clemence Moulaert (The Vegan Cookie Fairy):  "raw cakes are beyond easy to make, but unless you organize yourself, it may take a long time to make. Remember that the art of raw baking/cake-making relies heavily on soaking nuts and dates and leaving the cake in the fridge for several hours to firm up. So measure out all your ingredients in advance, soak what needs to be soaked, freeze what needs to be frozen at least a day in advance, and you will save yourself heaps of time."
