Did you know that opting for oil instead of butter in baking - especially muffins - often leads to a moister finished cake? Well these muffins prove just that. Dairy-free <em>and</em> delicious!</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="carrot_muffins__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/carrot_muffins__square_GL?scl=1"></p><h2>No-added sugar raisin and almond milk ice cream</h2><p>A dairy-free diet doesn't mean a lifetime restricted to sorbet rather than ice cream. <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/raisin-and-almond-milk-ice-cream" target="_blank">Our no-added sugar raisin and almond milk ice cream</a> is made extra thick and creamy thanks to the blended-down, home-roasted peanuts. What's more - this simple recipe doesn't even require an ice cream machine. Who needs dairy anyway?</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="nutty-raisin-and-almond-milk-ice-cream__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/nutty-raisin-and-almond-milk-ice-cream__square_GL?scl=1"></p><h2>Dutch baby pancake</h2><p>Sometimes referred to as a German pancake, <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/dutch-baby-pancake" target="_blank">Dutch baby pancakes</a> are made of pancake batter that's baked until it puffs up in the oven - a bit like a big Yorkshire pudding! By using almond milk instead of cow's milk, you can easily turn this puffy pud into a dairy-free wonder dessert. We like to top ours with fresh mixed berries and a dusting of icing sugar. Yum!</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="dutch_baby__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/dutch_baby__square_GL?scl=1"></p><h2>Vegan parsnip fruit and nut cake</h2><p>Baking for someone with a dairy allergy and stuck for inspiration? Try searching out vegan cake recipes instead! As veganism grows in popularity, more and more recipes are being adapted for the diet and lifestyle choice. Since all vegan recipes are dairy-free by nature, it would be rude not to give one or two of them a whirl! We love <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/vegan-parsnip-fruit-nut-cake" target="_blank">this vegan parsnip, fruit and nut cake</a> for its warming autumnal flavours.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="vegan-parsnip-fruit-nut-cake__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/vegan-parsnip-fruit-nut-cake__square_GL?scl=1"></p><h2>Chocolate truffle fondant</h2><p>Think you can't achieve <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/chocolate-truffle-fondant" target="_blank">an oh-so-naughty, melt-in-the-middle chocolate dessert</a> without a little dairy? Think again! Lots of good quality dark chocolate is naturally dairy-free, meaning you don't have to miss out on your chocolatey fix just because you're avoiding milk! Use a dairy-free spread like soya or sunflower instead of butter and you're onto a winner.</p><p>Side note: We use truffles in this recipe to achieve the gooey centre in each fondant. Make sure your truffles are dairy-free, or, simply use a square or two of good quality, dairy-free dark chocolate.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="chocolate-truffle-fondant__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/chocolate-truffle-fondant__square_GL?scl=1"></p><p><em>Whipping up some dairy-free bakes soon?
