What Kinds of Sugars Work with Aquafaba Meringue?

A few months back, while I was working on my cookbook, I spent a day playing with different kinds of sugars. There are lots of folks out there (especially in the vegan community) that are trying to avoid sugar, or at least cut down on

Coconut Key Lime Pie {Vegan}

Recipe number 2 this week on the theme of coconut-lime! This is a variation of the lemon meringue pie that I wrote for my cookbook, Aquafabulous! I just made it up, though, so it didn’t actually make it into the cookbook… whoops! This is really,

So… this Aquafaba stuff. You’d think that I’d completed experimenting with it while I was writing my cookbook, but it turns out I’m still discovering new ways to use it. I did quite a bit of experimenting with concentrating AF while researching the book. I

Life-Changing, Vegan, Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ugh. Gluten-free baking. I don’t know how you people do it! Give me vegan baking any day of the week… that stuff I get! But gluten-free? Nope. So much more complicated. In the past, I’ve pretty much defaulted to a gluten-free flour mix, but honestly,
