Welcome to Cooking with Shirley!
Hi, I’m Shirley, and I’ve been creating simple, delicious vegan recipes since 2020. What started as a passion for baking without eggs, milk, or butter has grown into a community of 81,000 subscribers on YouTube and hundreds of tried-and-tested recipes.
Why Vegan Baking?
My vegan baking recipes use no eggs or dairy and are designed to be easy, accessible, and delicious. The site also includes earlier classic recipes with eggs, dairy or other animal ingredients. These are marked Classic Recipes. Check the ingredients and dietary notes on each recipe, including the labels on packaged ingredients.
What You’ll Find Here
From cupcakes and cookies to cakes and pancakes, I cover a wide range of vegan treats:
- Quick microwave desserts ready in minutes
- Air fryer recipes for a healthier twist
- Gluten-free options for those with additional dietary needs
- Classic favourites like red velvet, chocolate, and vanilla, all made vegan
