'Healthy Alternative' recipes

I took a last minute holiday the week just gone and found myself abandoning any healthy routine I usually have. I over ate (and drank) and got a bit lazy. I did, however, check my baking account and saw two requests. One for baking healthy on a budget and one for gluten free. Ah ha, […]

This ‘Healthy Alternative’ Easter Simnel Traybake is basically Christmas cake for Easter. With a bit less effort. I’ve given up chocolate for lent, so wanted to make something with an Easter vibe that wasn’t covered in it. Don’t get me wrong, as soon as Easter Sunday arrives I’ll be having chocolate for breakfast, lunch and […]

Therefore, I’ve been trying out different juice recipes, seeing which ones I like best/are best for me etc etc. Well, I did a bit of a bulk buy on […]

I’ve called these ‘breakfast muffins’ but I don’t think I’ve actually eaten them for breakfast yet. They ARE perfect for breakfast though (and other times of the day…) They are wholemeal, can be made dairy free AND have fruit in them. A better breakfast than a croissant methinks! Apple and cinnamon is one of my […]
