I'm visiting a friend tomorrow, and I thought it would be nice to bring something, so I baked some chocolate muffins. I actually didn't have any eggs, so I googled a vegan recipe. They turned out great! I already tried one (gotta taste-test, right?) and they are delicious. Do you enjoy baking? If so, have you tried baking vegan recipes? I've tried a couple so far, and usually try are a hit.

Yeah I do usually enjoy backing but the result is just a disappointment

I am a Heinz-57 American with a bit of Belgian ancestry, who loves Belgian Dark Chocolate and would rather not eat the chocolate if it is not Belgian Dark Chocolate. I also often cook and bake vegan or vegetarian foods. We have various issues like Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, and Celiac Disease in the fa,ily.

I'm actually Belgian, and dark chocolate is my favourite!

@maclanis I noticed you were. That's why I mentioned that part of my ancestry. Those ancestors immigrated to America in the early 1600s.

@Chellezhere Ooooh okay, I thought it was just a coincidence. It's cool how you know that about your family. I only know of family members born in the 20th century.

I'm glad they turned out well. I haven't tried vegan, but I have done gluten-free.

I haven't done that, but it's nice that it's possible for the people with a gluten allergy!

They look really good. I don't use vegan but sometimes I use flaxseed instead of eggs and it works perfectly, and I always use Greek yogurt instead of oil.

I use flaxseed instead of eggs all the time! I had no idea you could substitute greek yoghurt for olive oil. I'll give that a try.

@maclanis I looked up recipes, I'm not sure you can just substitute but maybe it would work.

They look really yummy. Yes, I enjoy baking, too. Most of the time I bake vegan recipes. I think vegan food is much healthier than non- vegan food.

That's true. I try to eat vegan every now and then, but I'm not actually vegan.

@maclanis That's totally cool. You are aware that eating non vegan food every time in every meal is not really a good choice.

They sound intriguing, and I imagine they are very good! If I don’t have eggs I always check to see if I have mayonnaise since you can use mayonnaise as a substitute for eggs (which I’m positive you already know). These days I don’t buy eggs OR mayo anymore.

I do think I've heard of that, but I've never tried it. Either way, I almost never buy mayonaise so that wouldn't help me either.

They sound delicious. I am not sure I have tried any vegan recipes but I would like to. Do you have any easy one you could share?
