I love my banana bread and banana chocolate chip cookies but those aren’t exactly the best things for you to eat so these little cookies really satisfy my cravings for those treats. These banana oatmeal cookies are super soft and taste almost like a slice of banana bread. It’s like a banana bread and cookie […]

Chocolate almond Pocky!
Lil’ bun got a pack of chocolate almond Pocky from the critter the other day and when she finished them off, all she wanted was MORE of it. I swear they put some magical sprinkles in there to make them super yums or something. Anyways, I may not know what the “secret ingredients” that make […]
Japanese inspired sesame soy cookies (vegan)
These delicious sesame soy cookies took me less than 30 minutes to put together (yes, I timed myself) and even though they didn’t take long to make, they did not fall short on packing a bunch of flavor. If you didn’t realize already, these cookies have a secret ingredient. SOY SAUCE! The saltiness of the […]
Gomagashi – Japanese sesame crackers

Recently, mother deer ran out of gomagashi Japanese sesame crackers we got for her in Japan. She loved those little treats and was disappointed when she […]

I’ve always stayed away from the little guys because they are quite unhealthy because of all the butter that’s packed into it’s shortbread crust. We still had some pineapple paste at home so […]

Lil’ bun finally had the opportunity to try one of their cinnamon sticks this past summer and she fell in love with them. […]
Chocolate Chip Cookies (vegan)
I figured that it was about time I posted a Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe, I mean afterall, it’s one of the classics. Lil’ bun and I came across this recipe not too long ago, and since she always has a sweet cookie craving, she nagged me to make these with her, not that anyone minded […]
Pistachio Thins (vegan)
Lil’ bun and I love the “thin addictive almond thins” from Costco, it’s our favorite to go snack. Since we were craving them, we decided to dig into mother deer’s baking book and see if she had a recipe for something similar, and this is what we found. We used chopped up pistachios to make […]
