Baking

I adore all of my recipes, but this is one that I am particularly proud of, because it means that I can eat BREAD. I can make it up and pop it in the oven almost immediately, bake for 15-20 minutes and that’s it! It…

This cake is currently being made on a weekly basis in our house. Florence (my one year old daughter) adores it. She sometimes has a slice for breakfast usually with a rather mismatched side of avocado (her most favourite food). Otherwise I will pop it…

We have finally moved and I can’t tell you how good it feels. Being able to walk out to the park or to a shop, without having to pack what used to feel like our worldly belongings in to the car is a revelation. Convenience…

With only 4 ingredients, this is probably the most simple nut free, grain free and dairy free banana bread loaf you will find. It was created at 11pm a few nights ago. We are moving house today but at the time I was busy packing…

Because who doesn’t love cauliflower cheese? Well, my mum for one, but trust me, these are divine. A perfect addition to a salad, Sunday roast, home cooked feast, barbecue, picnic, or just finger food to hand around at a party. Easy to prepare with hardly…

There is nothing more indulgent than chocolate, creamy caramel and a buttery shortbread base and this recipe is just that, but without the added sugar, grains, dairy or other additives. It’s one of my favourite recipes and one that I have made, to date, eight times…

A cake that unites the whole family and a firm favourite in our household. This cake is light, moist and really simple to make with a deliciously decadent texture. Great for any occasion but especially perfect at Christmas and for those who are not fans of…

A few weeks ago I was sent a grocery “essentials” box from a company called Bearfaced Groceries , an online grocer who deliver straight to your front door. It was full to the brim with incredibly fresh fruits, veg and grass-fed beef, salmon and chicken. The one…

There is nothing better, in my opinion, than a Sunday roast followed by some cinnamon spiced apple pie and homemade custard. It’s one meal that brings people together, families, friends and acquaintances and it’s certainly a popular one for us. I love preparing big feasts…

Every time I make these muffins I do so with the intention of having them in the fridge for the week so that if any one’s hungry there’s something delicious to hand. However, no sooner are these made, they are eaten. They are probably one…

Recently the folk at Tenderstem® contacted me to invite me to create a delicious low carb (and dairy free, gluten-free, grain free- phew!) recipe incorporating the delicious Tenderstem®. For those of you that don’t know, Tenderstem® is broccoli’s taller and skinnier daughter. You’ve probably, like me, been using for…

I know that for a lot of people one of the hardest things to give up when following a low carb lifestyle is bread. It’s like a comfort blanket that is really hard to be let go of. For me, it’s never been something I’ve…
