Salted Caramel Peanut Butter Shortbread
About this time of year I start getting so excited for the festive season and all the amazing food that comes with it. Thankfully I no longer find myself going crazy on it - now that I'm so much more relaxed around food all year round there's no need to stuff myself...
Chai Poached Pears with Creme Fraiche
As Christmas approaches I start getting more interested in cooking and baking again, well fancy cooking and baking that is. I love thinking about which new recipes I'd love to try, and which old favourites I'll be enjoying. I'm hoping that this festive season we'll...

With Halloween just around the corner you may find that like me, you have a few pumpkins in the kitchen waiting to be carved up into lanterns. This Pecan Pumpkin Pudding is the most delicious way to use up some of that pumpkin flesh rather than chucking it in the bin!...
Healthy Peppermints: Coconut and Chocolate Peppermint Treats

I’m a big fan of breakfast, in fact I think it’s fair to say it’s my favourite meal of the day. Unfortunately since becoming a mama I don’t always get to enjoy a relaxed breakfast, sometimes Finley wants to play, breastfeed (still!) or is just in one of those clingy...
Passionfruit and Blueberry Cheesecake in a Glass
Summer seems to have arrived here, and with it has come more eating out, more socialising and more fun! Obviously that is wonderful, but it’s easy for summer eating to go a little too heavy on the treats. It’s good to have an easy but healthy dessert recipe up your...
