Raw Butternut Squash Dessert reminds me of my parents traditional Indian cooking. Spices really lift the flavour of sweets and the turmeric, cumin and cardamon really make this dish appetizing. This really makes a wonderful lavish dessert to round off a dinner party with guests. Yet, it is surprisingly simple to put together.

What to do next

Tag me on @ethiveganquantum on Instagram to show me what you’ve made and let me know you’re happy for me to share.

My recipes are featured in vegan speciality publications: Nourished, Vegan Life, Plant Based and Vegan, Food and Living.

Order my first self-published book, “Essence: The Beginner’s Guide to Veganism” part of the three-part Circle of Food series. My second book “Presence: The Ascending Vegan” – which explores how to maintain a vegan practice is out in 2027 – I have compiled all the chapters including recipes.

Going strong since 2013.

Love.
