I love Easter, it’s one of my favourite times of the year with the promise of spring on the horizon, cute chicks, lambs bouncing around the fields, bright yellow daffodils and lots and lots of chocolate. My idea of heaven! This turned out to be an absolutely MASSIVE bake and getting to the end result…

Wholegrain apple and cinnamon breakfast loaf
Lots of children are back to school this week or next so with that in mind I wanted to share my quick and easy breakfast loaf recipe. I love to be prepared and like a bit of variety throughout the week so I usually bake a breakfast batch of goodies to break up the monotony…
Lemon drizzle bundt cake with sugared raspberries and redcurrants
For some reason, I have always been under the impression that baking a bundt cake would be incredibly difficult. One of my main concerns being that the cake would get stuck inside the tin, I greased mine well with butter and once cooled it turned out from the tin perfectly retaining all the detail. Phew!…
Tiramisu with Baileys Irish Cream recipe
I promised you guys a Tiramisu and here it is. I have made a few substitutions so it’s not your usual authentic Italian recipe, look away now if you like brandy in your puddings. I went a bit cheap and used instant hot chocolate instead of cocoa powder (because I didn’t have any) What would…

How to make pitta crisps
The summer holidays are upon us, hurrah! Having the children at home for the next six weeks can be a daunting thought, can’t it? Luckily we have lots of day trips planned and that means packed lunches or picnics. I like to feel organised when it comes to food and snacks and offer the children…
Raw Berry Cheesecake
Hands up who has Ella Woodward’s book Deliciously Ella? I do, and this past weekend have cooked up a storm! I am immediately drawn to the sweet recipes in the book and as soon as I saw this raw berry cheesecake (that has absolutely no cheese incidentally) I just knew it would be something I…
Sundried tomato and balsamic vinegar spaghetti
This is such a simple spaghetti dish and one that requires little effort and very few ingredients. I could personally eat spaghetti plain and just drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and salt and pepper but this sun-dried tomato pasta dish comes a close second for it’s simplicity and authentic taste. Ingredients 200g dried spaghetti…
Easy rustic olive and cheese loaf
We are a house of bread eaters, there really is nothing more special than a loaf fresh from the oven. The inviting smell and the fact that it’s shareable makes it all the more appealing. Monday nights in our house are pasta nights and an accompanying bread is always welcomed. This is also a stunner…
