Easter is done and there’s a ton of goodies to eat. So, this is something I’m making from my pile of bank holiday weekend leftovers (can I also just take this moment to say, how is it already nearing the end of April?!!) Anyway, I’m a massive fan of a mixed salt and sweet treat […]

Popcorn & ‘Smarties’ – American Style Cookies (naughty)
April 4, 2014 by bright-admin - in Cookies, Indulgent
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 […]
Lemon and Poppyseed Loaf with a Lemon Drizzle
April 4, 2014 by bright-admin - in Bread, Cake, Indulgent, Loaf
What is the point of a lemon and poppy seed recipe if it isn’t really lemony and has a shed load of poppy seeds? I was fed up with half hearted flavours, so this one suits my taste to a tee, and yours too I hope! My only comment would be to check your […]
Blueberry & Pecan Loaf with Maple Syrup Glaze
March 3, 2014 by bright-admin - in Indulgent, Loaf
Pecans and maple syrup have always reminded me of America. Don’t get me wrong, I have no links to America at all. I’ve been twice in my 28 years, which, combined, span no longer than a total of 3 weeks. But that hasn’t stopped me basing a recipe on the place. And eating it to […]

I looked in my fridge recently and since the weather has been getting a bit warmer, I realised I hadn’t been eating as much porridge as I usually would…. I guess you’re wondering what this has to do with mini jam muffins. Well my friends, I usually put jam in my porridge and I looked […]
Pistachio, Almond & Lime Tray Bake
March 3, 2014 by bright-admin - in Indulgent, Traybake
Nuts. Nuts. Nuts. I love nuts. (Don’t be rude) Particularly almonds. Whole almonds, ground almonds, almond milk. ANY FORM. So much so, I keep having to remind myself not to put nuts in all my recipes because a) some people don’t like them and b) some people are allergic to them. But the day I […]
Raspberry Cake
March 3, 2014 by bright-admin - in Cake, Indulgent
Raspberries were on offer. Do I need any other reason to bake an everyday raspberry cake? Well, that and I was having a very civilised tea and cake afternoon with some EastEnd friends and thought I’d try out a new cake recipe. I’m always a little wary about trying cakes out on people at a […]
