Good for you Gingerbread Cookies

Who doesn’t love a bit of seasonal gingerbread? This week I tried out a new recipe to test out whether I needed to use refined sugar or not – turns out, I don’t! And they taste just as good. Not overly sweet, and full of flavour to make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. All…

Cheesy Polenta Chips

Nailed it! I tried this a couple of months ago and to be honest they were okay. This time, I swore I’d do better – and I’m glad to say I did! Cheesy polenta chips are the ultimate in healthy comfort food – and they’re soooooo yummy!!! Crispy, fluffy in the middle, TOTALLY better than a…

Get Well Soon Chicken Soup

Sorry it’s taken me so long to post this! The child I made it for was having none of my delicious ‘Get Well Soon Soup’ so it’s taken him a while to recover (which is why it’s taken ages to put this recipe up to be honest!!) The other, ‘obedient one’, as I like to…

Magnificent Morsels

So here it is… the recipe for (what my daughter calls) “magnificent morsels”. They’re sweet, gooey, chewy, moist, and warm… so easy to make that I’ve prepared some ready for tomorrow’s treat too! Ingredients: – Ready roll gluten free puff pastry (or use normal all-butter puff pastry if no intolerance) – 1 tablespoon melted coconut…

Clean Chocolate Brownies

So I thought I’d share the baking love and took some brownies into work today; they seemed to go down well! My colleague called them “clean brownies”, but I made these when I was having major Monday blues yesterday with that “don’t give two hoots” kinda feeling to spur me on! They were light yet dense and…

Maple, Cranberry and Chocolate Cereal

Maple, cranberry and chocolate homemade cereal, made with lots and lots of love and zero junk. I’ll admit, we’ve struggled to wean the boy off cereal, and today we nearly had showdown in the shops. So we decided to try and make our own – okay so it’s glorified granola, but if it gets him…

Vegan Avocado Key Lime Pie

My very vegan, avocado key lime pie. I made this for my husband’s birthday this week. I think everyone was a bit like, “where’s the cake love”, but seriously, I loved this. So light and creamy. Probably should’ve left it for a non-birthday occasion, but it was delicious nonetheless. Perfect if you are looking for a…

Healthy Chocolate Pots

Chocolate pot, the healthy way! I love Gu pots, and don’t get me wrong, they’re so yummy but I always feel my skin crawl a bit at the thought of digesting anything with refined sugar nowadays. I decided to make an alternative of the humble chocolate pud – and here it is. It’s light, it’s…

Gluten free Lemon Polenta Cake

So we celebrated a birthday this week (balloon a big giveaway, eh?!) and we didn’t go for the usual character clad, Pinterest themed, en-route-to-a-medical-condition kinda cake. Instead we all had a slice of gluten free at its yummiest – fresh and zingy Lemon Polenta cake. It was delicious so I thought I’d share the recipe…

Dairy free cream

Today I made french toast using some very versatile cashew milk! We even made a little vanilla flavoured cashew dipping cream as well. Seriously yum on a fresh Saturday like today! Recipe for the cream is super easy: 1 cup cashews (soaked 1 hour) Add 1/2 cup water Blitz with a dash of honey, sea…
