Former Victoria Secret model Miranda Kerr knows how to prioritize her health, even as a busy mother of three. She's the founder and CEO of Kora Organics, a clean line of beauty products, and every Wednesday on her IG she hosts a "Wednesday Wellness" workout series with popular exercise instructors like Megan Roup, creator of Sculpt Society, and Mary Helen Bowers, founder of Ballet Beautiful, and others. If you'd like to join these sessions and get moving with Kerr, tune into her Instagram live at 12 noon Pacific Time.

After all that working out makes her Banana Bread Oatmeal Cookies, which are vegan and look delicious. She shares her recipe for these treats and her green smoothie here so you can have amazing skin as well.

Kerr, 37, has been baking up a storm during COVID-19 crisis and her recipes have been mostly vegan leading her 12 million fans to wonder if their favorite former angel has gone plant-based.

Being stuck at home makes Kerr feel "helpless," she said recently, adding, "In a way, we're doing our part by staying home, but at the same time I feel helpless, and like I'm not doing enough," Kerr told Honey, the Australian website. As an entrepreneur and spokesperson of nutrition brand Biostime, Kerr lives by her daily mantra, "attitude of gratitude," to stay positive while she's in isolation with her family in Los Angeles (she married Snapchat founder Evan Spiegel, who she has had two kids with. Her eldest son's father is Orlando Bloom). She explains, "The fact that we're together as a family and that we're safe - that's all that mattered to me."

Is Miranda Kerr Vegan?

We're curious to know if Miranda Kerr is vegan after she made these drool-worthy vegan cookies. The supermodel is able to maintain her long, lean body through diet and exercise, and while she is not technically vegan she eats a mostly plant-based diet with occasional eggs or fish.

Kerr incorporates superfoods into her day-to-day meals and focuses on eating nutrient-dense foods including green juice every morning. "I like to start my day off with hot water and lemon, it's a really great way to kick start your digestion," Kerr tells Food Diaries produced by Harper's Bazaar. She shares her daily green smoothie recipe below, which includes plant-based milk, fresh vegetables, a special superfood mix, and Vitamin C. Try Kerr's smoothie all summer long for the energy and immunity-boosting ingredients. When Kerr is not in the mood for a smoothie, she switches it up by eating rice porridge with banana, cinnamon hemp milk, and maple syrup, click here for a photo of that recipe.
