It’s been a while since I posted a cake recipe, and I think you’ll like this one.
And this one is such a delicious mix of flavours, which are enhanced by a creamy coconut tahini topping and gooey warm berries.
It’s also incredibly easy to make, just a matter of adding all the ingredients to a food processor, blitzing, spooning into a baking tray, baking, and viola!
As I’ve used my much-loved buckwheat flour, it’s completely gluten-free, vegan of course and sweetened with a little coconut sugar and medjool dates.
I hope you enjoy, love Niki xx

I made this and it’s now one of my favorites!! I made a few adjustments, I added a teaspoon of curry powder to the sautéed onions, used low sodium veg broth and at the end threw in a ton of spinach that I needed to use up!
Niki
Love your additions!
Much love, Niki xxx
Trish
I made this.. absolutely delish.. one quick question, is the yogurt coconut milk yogurt or coconut flavored yogurt?
I used coconut milk yogurt and worked out just fine.
Thanks
Niki
Hi Trish
I used yogurt made from coconut – but I think that would work as well.
Mych love, Niki xxx
Louise
Mm this was delicious!
I accidentally added the roast tomatoes in at the same time as the peppers but no issue.
I omitted the salt and added nutritional yeast, which was really delicious.
It says 2-4 servings but that’s not right: to start off there are 3 cans of beans in there. It made about 8 servings.
Delicious served with some spiced rice and kale stirred in to round out the meal.
Also a heads up for others to keep an eye on costs, as cherry tomatoes, red peppers, and some of the canned beans listed are pricey! It cost me about $30 to make this. Next time I will make my own beans to save costs.
Niki
Hi Louise
So happy you like!
Great idea to soak your own beans.
Love

So delicious and always find the recipes easy to follow. Have added to our list of regular dinners, thank you!
Niki
Fantastic! So happy to hear xxx
Mardy from Edmonds WA
Wow, this is delicious. So fresh and flavorful! I didn’t peel or seed the large tomatoes, just chopped them up… should I have? Also I didn’t read the recipe carefully and just dumped in everything at end for the final simmer and it was great! This one is a keeper!
Niki
No need to de-seed.
So have you liked!

Could I use tinned tomatoes instead of fresh for the body of the stew, as I’d like to do this for an event?
Niki
Hi Frances
Yes you absolutely can. I think fresh taste a little better but for an event tinned will be great.
Love
Niki xx
Caitlin
What size tins? The standard medium 400g can or the small 150g?
Niki
Hi Caitlin
I used standard 400g

Brandie DiFalco
Hi,
This recipe says that the cooking time is 40 minutes but when I add it up it will take at least 50 and that is if I perfectly time up when the peppers are done and are ready to add the beans mixture.
Thanks,
Brandie
Niki
Hi Brandie
Thanks for letting me know.
I was multi tasking there ☺️

Hi Niki… I need to apologise; I called you a Home Chef but you are much more than this, sorry. I also forgot to sign out on my first message as it’s early here in Oz and I think I’m still waking up only because I’ve spent after three weeks in hospital and one doesn’t get much sleep with all the Nurses scurrying about the ward. As I said in my first message I came across your site in Instagram, and I just wanted to say thank you for sharing with us all, so kind…
Thanks so much…
Nuffy….
Nuffy
Hi Niki. I found you by accident on Instagram, thank goodness not a car accident, however, I love this meal. I love your tenacity as a home Chef, correct me if I’m wrong as I haven’t read much about you at this early stage, and Australian. Your site is definitely a keeper, I love it. A little problem. I am allergic to Capsicums/RedPeppers so any ideas on a replacement Vegetable, or Herb? I don’t think it would matter terribly if I doubled up on Tomatoes for this recipe, what do you think?
Niki
Niki
Hi Nuffy
I wouldn’t definitely double up on the tomatoes
Love
Niki xx
Nuffy
Thanks Niki I did, and this meal was delightful, and along with the Thyme I added homegrown Basilica which is a smaller leaf and a more pungent than the large Basil leaf, the sauce was amazing so I am going to use this sauce for the Gnocchi….
Thank you for a fantastic site…love it to pieces! I’m now looking for one of your yummy curries to make, looking looking now…
Niki
Hi Nuffy
Fantastic! Love that idea.
Can’t wait to hear what you think of one of my curries.
Love

Susan
Greetings from Canada! I’ve recently discovered your recipes and made two of your stunning soups in a row. I
am now a fan!!! Just checked alternate names that we use across the pond for this recipes’ beans: haricot = navy beans; butter = lima beans; cannelini = white kidney. Cheers!!
Niki
Amazing! So happy you like Susan
Much love

Kim Kelly
Gorgeous!!! This was sooooo good. Brownie points from my son as he tells me his meat eating girlfriend has asked for the recipe, she loved it
Nuffy
Kim I’m confused about the tomatoes…there are two lots, it seems. One lot of tomatoes are for the oven with the peppers, is that correct? Then halfway down the Ingredients it say another 20 Cherri tomatoes??? it says add the cooked peppers so does that mean the tomatoes too??? Maybe I’m not reading this recipe well….
Thanks Nuffy…
Niki
Hi Kim
Happy days indeed!

Hi! Is the 1 cup of water the only liquid added?
Niki
Hi Vanessa
Yes it is, the tomatoes add more liquid.

I don’t want to use tomatoes so how many roast red peppers shall I use in its place? I usually do this for a tomato base recipe, ie pasta sauces instead of tomatoes
Niki
Hi Sheila
I’d go for another two.

I think the lemon juice is missed from directions? At least I cannot see. When is it added?
Niki
Removed now. Thanks Jenna xx
Pat
I made the red pepper, white bean and coconut stew. It is delicious, hot or cold. It will take place in my repertoir of vegan recipes.
Niki
So happy you like it Pat! Xx
Pat
Im making this recipe tonight!!
Niki
Fantastic! Xx
Karen
I can’t see where the lemon juice goes?
Niki
Hi Karen
My mistake, removed now.

Vanessa
Hi! I am so excited to make this. Can you clarify for me, please, are the red peppers bell peppers? Are haricot beans white beans? Thanks.
Niki
Hi Vanessa
Yes absolutely, bell peppers and haricot beans are a type of white bean.
Any white bean is great.
Much love
Niki xx
Debra
Haricot beans are also used in tinned baked beans.
Åsa Almberg
Hi, this recipe looks really tempting! But I wonder, on how many degrees do you roast the peppers and cherry tomatoes? in celsius.
Niki
Hi Asa!
180c is perfect.

Jenny
Hi there. This recipe looks amazing but i’m new to cooking and am getting a little confused. The recipe calls for 2 handfuls of cherry tomatoes and then 5 large or 2 cherry tomatoes. Which quanity of tomatoes does in the oven with the peppers? And from step 3 we take the raw tomatoes to cook for 5 min in thr stew and then in step 5 we take the peppers and tomatoes that were in the oven and toss in? Just making sure I am clear. Thank you so much!
Nuffy
Glad you asked this as I just did after it was edited by author and it still doesn’t make sense to me…lol
Niki
Yes that’s correct.
Some are roasted and some cooked in the sauce. I’ll try to make clearer.
Love
Niki xx
Niki
Hi Jenny
I have just reviewed the recipe and made it a little clearer I hope!
You add two handfuls of cherry tomatoes to roast with the peppers. Then 5 plumb or 20 cherry to the stew.
I hope that helps?
Best wishes

Hi, should the beans be rinsed? Thank you!
Niki
I would give them quick rinse yes.

I’ve just made a vegan feast for my daughter and granddaughter….. white bean casserole, your moussaka with rice salad and tahini dressing. They absolutely loved it and there’s loads left even though they took some home. I’ll be using more of your recipes from now on . Baked peaches with coconut yoghurt made a lovely pud.
Dee Paned
I had great hope’s for this recipe and did it exactly as described. It was nice but it was lacking depth of flavour. Would I do it again? Yes, but add stock.
Niki
Hi Ro
That’s absolutely fantastic news!! So glad you enjoyed.
Love your pud idea!
