When we’re testing out recipes, there are three ways that a recipe (like these almond flour muffins) is guaranteed to catch our attention. 1 – taste 2- speed and/or ease 3 – nutritional health benefits In fact, these three criteria are a huge part of Hurry The Food Up. Those, …

After contacting Gisele, my favourite person from Brazil, the home of the Acai Berry, I’m happy to say I now can teach you how to make an acai bowl – original style. I bet not even the hippest California Sunshine Breakfast House can serve any better. Açaí na tigela, man! …

Ah dates. That flurry of excitement, of expectation. The buzz of the unknown, and the possibilities still to come. The…oh wait. Well, date smoothies are still exciting! Right? Delicious, certainly, when made this way. We’re in complete denial that summer is coming to an end, whatever the looming rain clouds …

Every now and then I’m allowed to write a new post (and therefore new recipe) about curry. Kat and Hauke keep it under tight control as otherwise every second recipe on the site would be curry. Who am I kidding? It would be every recipe. I love curry and this …

If you can believe such a thing, this is our very first milkshake recipe. A chocolate cashew milkshake to be precise. It leaves us asking ourselves why we hadn’t made a milkshake before. Caro, Hauke’s flatmate, has already confirmed a fairly serious addiction to it. There’s something that’s supremely soothing …

Yesss…it’s finally here! The banana mug cake! If people asked me to name two things I love in life then bananas and cakes would definitely make it onto that list. Mugs might not, although for the sake of this recipe I’ll also add mugs somewhere near the bottom, as I …

Do you struggle to eat in the morning? If so, you’re not alone. Chowing down on a big ol’ bowl of something might well be the last thing on your mind as you stroll bleary-eyed around your home, stepping on cats and quietly cursing (well that’s me anyway). While I’m …

My goal was to create easy to make everyday Coconut Flour Pancakes. Not an easy task as it turned out. But my relentless testing eventually paid off. Let’s dive into the nitty gritty of Coconut Flour Pancake making: 1. Coconut flour is “dusty” – so, if you use too much …

We need no excuses to share banana recipes. One of the most loved fruits the world over they come in all sorts of varieties and sizes, and are readily (and cheaply) available most of the year round (although it wasn’t always so). Insanely nutritious, they sport huge amounts of potassium, …

Hey guys, something a little different this week! We’re having a Smoothie Off against Gigi at GigiEatsCelebrities.com, and as the name might imply, it’s one smoothie versus another. Facing off. Ready to be drunk for its cause. As many of us are, I’m sure. This epic competition is being sponsored …

I’m gonna let you in on a little secret. We’re entering a competition! Yep, a smoothie competition at the end of the month. Because that’s how we roll. And sometimes blend. Anyhoo, that means we’ve been practicing. A lot. Some fruity combinations worked, some…not so well. But this blueberry banana …

Kat’s done it again! After insisting to Howie and myself that vegan, and therefore eggless snacks are far more than an equal to just your standard veggie ones, she took it upon herself to prove it to be true. And she really did. These irresistible vegan banana muffins with sweet …

This has been one of our longest recipes in the creation. We’ve been testing various ingredients and methods for weeks now, and it was hard to get these vegan banana pancakes exactly how we wanted them. But we did, and not without a little help. Tasty, fluffy pancakes without eggs …

How can baking cookies ever be quick? You usually have to get a scale, carefully measure out all the ingredients, caress the dough for ages, cut out little cookies into heart, moon and star shapes and then wait another century ‘til they’re baked. NEVER EVER would I bake cookies under …

You’re a guy, you don’t have any baking skills or equipment and you need to come up with a Valentine’s Day present. QUICKLY! Well, search no more. Let me present to you a really cool brownie recipe that even a three year old can pull off. Literally. To prove my …

URRGH. If you’re reading this post then you probably know what a hangover feels like. Mouth like the inside of a boot, the rolling stomach, the banging headache. All you wanna do is pass out again. Hangovers are obviously caused by excessive drinking, something that tends to happen fairly often …
