Vegan Snickerdoodles

I made these the same day as the peanut butter cookies, hence the same looking photos.

Chocolate Spice Baked Oatmeal & Cinnamon Apple Dish

I'm been playing around in the kitchen trying to create a baked oatmeal dish, but I've been having trouble. I finally got the texture right today, it wasn't mushy at all! Sort of muffin-like, but a bit more solid. It wasn't quite right yet, I would only use one tablespoon of cocoa powder next time. This weekend I plan on perfecting a pumpkin bake with the leftover pumpkin puree that has been in my fridge for a couple weeks.. I wonder how long it can last in there?

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

These cooked! They are vegan, so I wasn't really expecting them to cook on the inside, but they did, it worked! The only thing wrong with these are they did not rise one bit. I don't know why, but yeast seems to hate me.
Oh well, they're still delicious.

Spiced Chocolate Oatmeal

So I was about to make scrambled eggs for my breakfast, and I got all the ingredients out, went over to the stove, and saw that the frying pan was dirty. of course, me being too lazy, I put the egg whites away, and pondered what else I could have. I came up with oatmeal, and as I was boiling the water and milk, I glimpsed the cocoa powder. That gave me the idea to make chocolate oats! It went quite well, I had to add a bit of brown sugar in the end to make it a bit sweeter, but that's up to you. I found that it reminded me a bit of rice pudding, maybe the texture? Anyways, if you have a chocolate craving, here's a bit of a healthier alternative.

Banana Egg Whites

This was my morning breakfast. First day back at school since Spring Break, thought I should make a yummy nutritious one to hold me until lunch. This made quite a bit, and it was very filling. I thought the banana added a nice touch, since my dad used to add cut up banana slices to the top of an omlette when I was little. This has an interesting texture and smell, so it may not be for everyone, but I quite enjoyed it.
