I’m a chocoholic and this is torture! I’m writing about these brownies without having one to eat at this moment in time. I would be the happiest person on earth if I could make them again and again to have a constant supply. These chocolate and raspberry brownies taste amazing! They are moist, squidgy, indulgent…

Healthy Granola
I had planned to post this recipe just before Christmas as I thought this would be the kind of breakfast I would love to wake up to on Christmas day. We were away staying with family and in my head I thought I might make a batch of this granola to take with us and…
Carrot Cake Oaty Bars ( Sugar free)
A great one to get even young kids baking, these healthy bars are so easy to make. Just mix all the ingredients together and throw in the oven. Twenty minutes later, you have delicious oaty bars that the kids will love, and best of all they don’t contain any refined sugar. I used date syrup as a…
Papaya & Banana Smoothie
I began buying papaya when my daughter started on solids as I read it was a great first food for babies. It has a low risk of allergic reaction and is easy to digest. Papaya has many health benefits, it is high in beta-carotene, contains antioxidants and fibre but best of all you can…
Date & Coconut biscuits (Sugar- free)
My new favourite thing to do with my daughter is to bake biscuits & cookies. She loves it… it’s like Play Dough but she’s allowed to have a taste and enjoy the results. Predictably her favourite word is now ‘cookie’ but I don’t want her to eat too many sweet treats. The problem with most…
Pear Tarte Tatin (refined sugar-free)
We have a pear tree in our garden that never stops to amaze me at how much fruit it can produce. They are deliciously sweet conference pears and at this time of year I always have to find ways to use them up. In the past, I have made jars of mulled pears, chocolate & pear…
Mango and passion fruit ice lollies (Sugar free)
When we were on holiday my daughter had her first taste of ice cream. She wanted more! As she’s not even one yet I wasn’t keen for her to have too much because of the sugar content. Most ice creams contain 21% sugar with some as high as 26%. Once home I decided to try…
Blackstrap molasses & blueberry cake
You know you have some days where everything seems to go wrong. Today was one of those days until I sat down with a cup of tea and a piece of this ‘Blackstrap molasses & blueberry cake’. Even whilst I was making it things weren’t going well: the kitchen scales broke, my daughter woke up…
Apricot yoghurt cake (Sugar-free)
Making a sugar free cake or pudding is not that easy! It’s taken a few attempts to get it right. But finally, I am really happy with this recipe. It’s a light spongy healthy dessert. A pudding the whole family can enjoy as it doesn’t contain any refined sugar. The natural sweetness of the dried…
