CHEF JOEY'S BLUEBERRY PUDDING CAKE (VEGAN)

Steps:

• Put the oven rack in the middle position and preheat to 375'F. Spray a 9 inch square baking dish lightly with oil.
• Stir together the 1/3 cup sugar with the water, lemon juice, and arrowroot flour in a small saucepan, then stir in the berries. Simmer for 3 minutes and stir occasionally. Remove from heat.
• In another bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a medium bowl.
• In a large bowl whisk the egg replacer, milk, margarine and vanilla. Then add the flour mixture and whisk until just combined.
• Spoon the batter into your prepared baking dish and spread it evenly on the bottom. Pour the berry mixture evenly over the batter. The berries will sink.
• Bake 25-30 minutes until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Cool on a metal rack before cutting.
• Cook's note: Cake can be made 1 day ahead and cooled completely, uncovered, then kept, wrapped well in foil, at room temperature.

CHEF JOEY'S VEGAN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350'F.
• Spray a cookie sheet with spray oil. I used my silpat sheets in place of the oil to keep the fat content down. You could probably use parchment paper as well.
• In a large bowl stir the flour and baking powder with a whisk to lighten up the mixture.
• In a medium bowl mix the apple sauce, agave syrup and vanilla. Using a whisk mix this all together then add to the flour baking powder mixture. Stir it very well.
• The batter will be very stiff. Add the chips, nuts and seeds and fold them into the batter to distribute.
• Drop by tablespoonful onto the cookie sheet and flatten with a fork. Dip the fork in water if the batter sticks to it.
• Make sure if you like round cookies you shape them accordingly because they will stay in what ever shape they are in when you flatten them.
• Bake for 12 minutes. The edges of the cookies should be golden in color. Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer them to a cooling rack immediately. These cookies are pretty sturdy so they can handle being moved off the cookie sheet right away. Then pop the next batch into the oven.
• Serve with a nice tall glass of non-dairy milk.
• Bon Appetit!

CHEF JOEY'S VEGAN NORI PIZZAS

• Set aside.
• Shred the carrot. Shred the cheese. Set them aside.
• Chop up the bell pepper, olives and tomatoes. Set aside.
• In a food processor combine the avocados, yeast, garlic powder, and 6 basil leaves. Puree and then set aside.
• TO ASSEMBLE THE PIZZAS:.
• Divide the Avocado puree between the three Nori sheets.
• Divide each of the vegetable between each of the 3 pizzas.
• Top each pizza with the veggies and the shredded cheese.
• Chop the 6 remaining basil leaves thin and top each pizza with 1/3 of the leaves.

CHEF JOEY'S VEGAN BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350'F.
• Put the margarine in a bowl big enough to accommodate 2 cups of milk.
• Put the sugar, cinnamon and salt into another bowl and mix well.
• Put the milk in a saucepan and heat until just before the boiling point.
• Pour the heated milk into the bowl with the margarine in it. Mix until the margarine is completely melted.
• In a 9x13" oven safe dish add the bread and raisins.
• Mix the egg replacer with water. I use 1 1/2 teaspoons of egg replacer and two tablespoons of warm water. Stir to incorporate.
• Gradually add the egg replacer to the milk mixture.
• Add in the cinnamon, sugar and salt mixture into the milk mixture. Mix this well.
• Pour the milk mixture over the bread and raisins and carefully move the bread around so that ll the pieces are soaked in the milk.
• Put the dish with the prepared bread pudding into a larger dish and put it into the preheated oven.
• Pour the hot water into the outer dish being careful not to get any in the pudding dish.
• Bake for 40-45 minutes.
• The custard should be creamy. Remember you didn't use eggs here so it won't be set exactly the same. As it cools it will firm up a bit.
• Serve either warm or cold, plain or with your favourite sauce.
• Bon Appetit.
