I live in New England, we’re having our first stretch of 50 degree plus days, so obviously, as a new englander, I must eat ice cream now that it is “warm”. This ice cream is created using my tried and true base vegan ice cream recipe. But being who I am, I wanted to experiment with different flavors. At first I didn’t think miso would work in a vegan ice cream recipe, but oh goodness, it is awesome! I took a lot of inspiration from Christina Tosi’s burnt miso pound cake. I love using miso and when I saw her recipe, I had to figure out how to use burnt miso in something. So this vegan burnt miso peach ice cream was born!
Vegan Miso Brown Butter Cookies
These vegan miso brown butter cookies are very much a love letter to my favorite, but now gone bakery. I lived in walking distance from it years ago, and would walk over and get these cookies quite frequently. They were salty, and sweet, with just a hint of coffee. But unfortunately the bakery closed a few years back, so no more miso brown butter cookies. I have found a recipe for these cookies, and made quite a lot of tweaks to make them vegan.
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
I wanted to create a vegan chocolate chip cookies recipe that was super easy, was eggless and did not require a butter substitute. The only issue I was finding was that all the recipes I could find and put to test were lacking in flavor. I got to thinking and thought about my favorite cookie from a now closed bakery. It was a miso cookie with puffed rice, caramelized white chocolate, and coffee grounds. A weird combination but it was soooo good. So I looked to miso to put in these vegan chocolate chip cookies, and it did not disappoint.
