Chickpea flour pumpkin muffins

Because it's so cold here, all I want is to curl on a couch, covered with a blanket and eating pumpkin and pumpkin pie spiced foods.
And these muffins are perfect for this!
They are perfectly spiced, moist from the pumpkin, fluffy and they go really well by themselves, or with some coffee, plant milk, vegan yogurt, tea... The choice is only yours.
Seriously, everything pumpkin is delicious, but these muffins are not only healthy and oil free, but quite high in protein because of the whole wheat flour, chickpea flour and nut butter.
So they can be eaten for breakfast as well, because they're really satiating. And 2 or 3 muffins for breakfast sound quite good for me.
Also, they are pretty easy to make. You can use just a bowl and dump everything in there. Mix well, pour in muffin pan (lined with muffin liners if you don't have a silicone one)
It's easy to make delicious vegan food, guys!

Ok, the recipe now:

Basic seitan burger

I usually like to make more creative recipes, but sometimes a good, basic seitan burger with beans is perfect and it tastes amazing, even if it doesn't have beets or Gods know what my mind creates in the moment...
This burger recipe is tasty, easy to make and you can make it using a grater if you don't want to use a food processor.
They are also high in protein, flavorful, satisfying and oil free :)
The secret is in the spices, guys! You don't actually miss the meat, but the texture and the spice combo. You can always have the feeling if you want, just choose the right (cruelty free) ingredients :)

Fudgy guilt free chickpea brownies

What can be better than a dessert that is in the same time tasty, decadent, healthy and guilt free?
With these brownies you eat your dessert and a healthy portion or your legumes in the same time😊
They are also oil free for added goodness 😊
I know that usual people use black beans for brownies, but I LOVE chickpeas, and I couldn't let them out from my desserts either.
You cannot taste the chickpeas at all, and these brownies are really fudgy, decadent, moist and they hit the spot when you want something sweet.
Ok, even now, when I'm writing this, I'm salivating 😁
Enough of the description, let's go to the recipe now!

Warming chickpea coconut curry

Here it's fall, and so cold that all I'm craving is warming and hearty food, like stews, chilies, curries soups and stuff like that.
And because I like experimenting in the kitchen I made my own rendition of a coconut curry that is hearty, pretty high in protein, oil free and really tasty.
It's not a traditional curry, but I know that at least a few other people besides me love it!
So it has to be good 😄 😉!
Jokes aside, even if this isn't a traditional curry, it is really warming and satisfying and it makes a really good dish for this weather.
The recipe is quite simple and easy to follow too 😊
You can make it in bigger batches and you can freeze it too. It keeps well in the fridge for 4-5 days (if you can resist as much without eating it all 😀)
