It was my dad’s birthday and I said I’d bake him anything he wanted, anything at all, this was the result. He actually just said ‘Banana and Walnut’. For a moment I thought of bringing over a bowl of chopped bananas and walnut pieces, then quickly realised that that was only funny in my head […]

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.

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 […]
