  • Hi everybody! Click below for the full ingredients and description...
    It can be hard to find moments of peace and quiet in a fast-paced world. In creating the Mindful Baking videos we wanted to highlight how important, how enjoyable and how delicious it is to slow down, get yourself into the kitchen and take some time to bake. I find that connecting with the ingredients and processes involved in baking can be really good for de-stressing, and I'd like to share some of those moments with you through these videos. Sam and I want to cover simple, honest recipes that are soothing and enjoyable to prepare, without to need for too much equipment, and we'd love it if you bake along, or just watch along.
    This time we're baking a completely plant-based, decadent Chocolate Courgette Cake.

    This is such a good idea. I love baking but tend to find it stressful because I’m often baking for a special occasion. This might help me to find mindfulness in it again.

    Hello from the US ... this looks FANTASTIC, moist, and SO CHOCOLATEY! But, please don't mind my question: does the courgette/zucchini melt, or do you get bites of shredded courgette/zucchini?! Thank you! --- Judi

      @mindfulbaking Hahaha. The only thing is that I have to wait until tomorrow to have it as it has to be refrigerated overnight. Ah well, good things come to those who wait.

    Hi Cupcake Jemma and the gang! I love your recipes so much and I hope I can try some from Crumbs and Doilies when I get the chance. I have a new customer requesting sugarfree or diabetes-friendly baked goods. Hope you can share some recipes for these kind of customers. More power and God bless

  • @auntiedough2488

    I always squeeze the zucchini because they are so watery and the cakes don’t rise otherwise. Kind of like with a carrot cake.

  • @Uummannaqsong
    @Uummannaqsong 11 днів тому

    I’m concerned about the frosting. It’s basically dark chocolate and vegetable shortening. Doesn’t it set too hard?

    is it possible to reduce the amount of the sugar ?

    • @hanaerina
      @hanaerina 22 дні тому +1

      Yes. I've made it and reduced the amount of sugar by 60 grams (so instead of 320, I used only 260 grams) and it came out perfect, the right level of sweetness for me.

      Good grief, imagine being so insecure that you have to post this comment 😆 If it bothers you that much, just use regular butter instead of plant-based, and you'll be fine! Or accept that not every recipe on UA-cam is catered to your personal preferences, and go find one of the literally hundreds of thousands of non-vegan chocolate cake recipes out there 🙄
