At long last … time to dig into oil-free vegan snack recipes!
Friends, it’s taken me some time to compile these recipes, get them tested (oh my darling recipe testers, thank you), photography, and then design.
But it’s done, it’s really done!
A follow-up to my very popular Plant-Powered Dressings collection, this ebook has been a couple of years in the making, and I know many of you have been waiting for these oil-free vegan snack recipes – so let’s get to it!
This ebook includes 17 oil-free vegan snack recipes. All recipes are also gluten-free, and with the exception of one dipping sauce – are nut-free or offer a nut-free option.

As mentioned in this video, this ebook all started with the popcorn recipes!
Popcorn is one of the archrivals of oil-free snacking.
How do you make oil-free popcorn… so that it will hold salt or other seasonings without getting soggy?
I found a technique to make caramel corn, then a chocolate-covered popcorn, and then a savory Umami Popcorn!
Watch my demo of this delicious CHOCOLATE Popcorn!
With those oil-free vegan popcorn recipes under my belt, I was off to create this ebook.
Of course, then realized we also needed crispy oven-baked spuds, and a munchy granola, chickpea nuggets… chickpea fries!
And because we all love sweet potatoes, I developed yet another sweet potato treat. Chocolate Sweet Potato Pudding for the win!
Hey, you can watch me demo this chocolate pudding too!
These oil-free vegan snack recipes offer something for everyone. Sweet, savory, cold, warm, crunchy, silky-smooth… and yes, chocolate.

It all looks wonderful, but what really caught my eye were the Chickpea Nuggets, yummy. I happen to have an Air-fryer now, and although the recipe calls for oven baking, I bet I could likely use it…!

Hi Dreena! I just purchased the bundle of all 3 ebooks through Instagram, but accidentally closed the app and now I can’t get back to download the books. Do you know if an email will be sent so I can download? Thank you so much!
Elizabeth Harris says
Can I buy your new E-Book through other resources other than Pay-Pal?

I have been a graham cracker fan since I was a little girl it was my go to snack all my life especially when I needed a touch of comfort. Now my Grandchildren love them (not a plant based family) so I keep them around for the children but never eat one.

Dreena says
Oh yay!! Thanks Ellen, hope you enjoy many of the recipes. 🙂
Colleen says
Thanks for the quick reply – I just bought the book and can’t wait to get started!
Dreena says
Delighted to read that – thanks Colleen 🙂
Colleen says
This looks amazing! I am trying to avoid sugar – do most of the recipes use coconut sugar or something else (dates etc?)? Thanks for your generosity in sharing your recipes.
Dreena says
Hi Colleen, thanks so much for sharing your first impression!
For the sweet recipes (about 1/2 of them), I use dates in a couple, pure maple syrup in another few, and then coconut sugar in one. Where coconut sugar is used you could replace with date sugar. Hope that helps.
