Whole wheat english muffins with Vegan Apple Honey (recipe at end of post) have been on the agenda for morning snacks….
I’ve always felt bad that vegans can’t have honey….it’s so delicious and wonderful! I’m hoping this might be an easy alternative.
I’ve been eating a lot of spaghetti squash lately. This one I topped with my Homemade Pizza Sauce and grated goat cheddar….
Sorry for the messy picture! I was in a hurry to eat! 🙂
This individual almond butter fudge made its way into my mouth for an afternoon snack…
….while this quinoa and broccoli casserole was my dinner!
This was so tasty! I just sort of threw some stuff together I had in the fridge, and it turned out fantastic!
For dessert, my daughters and I partook of the ubiquitous banana soft serve…..
….Jadie topped hers with a chocolate sauce and I added some carob powder to mine (I have a serious fixation on carob lately)…..some Pumpkin Fudge also made its way into our bellies…..
Another recipe you have to try is this Vegan Apple Honey….
…it’s so easy and all you need is one ingredient!
VEGAN APPLE HONEY (NO bees harmed)
Inspired by this recipe
2 c. 100% organic apple juice
Heat a shallow pan over medium heat. Add juice. Bring to a boil; lower to a simmer and continue cooking until the juice has reduced to syrup consistency (about 45 minutes to one hour). Allow it to cool before using. This should be kept in a clean glass jar in the fridge, and warmed a bit before using.

What are you planning on dressing up as for Halloween?
My husband and I thought it would be fun to be a dead bride and groom….or a dead gangster pair….or……something dead. Yes, we’re a bit morbid. 🙂

April 20, 2017 at 5:49 pmI have made apple honey many many many times now and mine never looks like the consistency that yours is. May I ask what your favorite brand of Apple juice to use is? I have also tried many different juice brands. However, let me add that we love this stuff! My daughter eats it with a spoon!! I am just always striving to get mine to look like yours!
Thanks!
Jess

April 20, 2017 at 7:01 pmHi Jess,
There’s no particular brand, however, I am sure to buy 100% organic, unfiltered apple juice. It should have that cloudy look on the bottom, where you need to shake the bottle in order to redistribute the sediment. There should be no other ingredients added! Hope that helps, and I’m glad you guys like it!
Jess says
April 20, 2017 at 7:11 pmThank you so much for your reply! Okay, that I should exactly what I buy! I’m wondering is I could make hardened apple honey candy…..
Jess says
April 20, 2017 at 7:12 pmThat is exactly what I buy***
Lauren says
April 21, 2017 at 1:13 pmI’ve not tried that, but do let me know if you have any luck! 🙂

May 28, 2014 at 7:42 amhow long will it last in the fridge?
Lauren says
May 28, 2014 at 12:21 pmHi Jenny,
It should be good for a couple of weeks or more!

January 30, 2013 at 4:38 pmThe Apple Honey looks AMAZING! THANKS a bunch for the idea!!! Do you have a horrible time cleaning the saucepan afterwards? How do you reheat the honey before serving? Do you just remove the bit you’d like and warm it on the stove?
Lauren says
January 30, 2013 at 7:55 pmThanks so much Brittany! I’ve not had a tough time with the pan. I usually don’t reheat it, I just keep it in a bowl on the counter and use it in place of honey. If you wanted to reheat it, I’d just put it in a non-stick skillet and warm it a bit that way. I hope you enjoy it! 🙂

October 7, 2012 at 11:20 amThat apple juice honey is so creative! I can’t wait to try it! I want to give it a shot with other juices too… I just got some pineapple juice from Trader Joe’s and it bet that would make a delicious “pineapple honey.”
Lauren says
October 7, 2012 at 2:23 pmThanks Lauren! Yeah, I’ve thought of doing it with orange juice as well. Pineapple sounds really good too!

Rachel @ cuttingoutcarbs says
October 3, 2012 at 7:59 amAlright so I’m just going to come out and say this, reading your blog just MADE my week. I can’t have gluten, dairy or soy, so I’ve been eating paleo. And normally when I see yummy treats on WIAW, I can’t have them. But I thought, let me just look at the fudge recipe. I can eat it!! Those will be happening in my house sometime this month along with the raw brownies. You are awesome.
Lauren says
October 3, 2012 at 8:54 amHahaha, you just made my day Rachel! Let me know if you try it out! 🙂
Gabby @ the veggie nook says
October 3, 2012 at 4:53 amI’m intrigued by this honey recipe! I just got a bottle of Bee Free Honee to try which is also made with apples so I’d love to see your version!
Lauren says
October 3, 2012 at 8:57 amI’ve heard of the Bee Free, but I’m not sure how it would compare…I imagine my version would be cheaper though! 🙂
