A Journey into Thought & Spirit

Old Fashion Nut Cake - Made Vegan

I love making old-fashion recipes and modernizing them with a dairy-free twist. Several years ago, I found this Seattle-based Cook Book called Table Talk that was written back in the 1950's.

There are several amazing recipes that are also super easy to veganize.

I have this old-fashion style of dress that is designed from a company that was based in New York. Although the dress is from the 1970's, it has an older design like a 1930's low-waisted dress. 

With all this sense of being old-fashion, I decided to make the "Old Fashion Nut Cake," recipe, and instead of eggs I used banana.

Bananas and applesauce are two fruit-based egg replacements. It add the moisture, texture and flavor to any vegan baked good. So for this recipe, I chose to work with bananas as the egg base. 

In addition, many recipes call for a TON of sugar. I naturally reduce the sugar because of health reasons, but also when using fruit as an egg substitute, it becomes naturally sweeter. 

​In modern times, we eat too much sugar so I prefer making baked goods naturally sweet first, and then adding additional sugar. 

It is my hope that people learn how to eat and bake healthier and dairy free!

Appreciate you reading and sharing your story since I can certainly relate and I think others can to
