I was challenged by the lovely people at The Groovy Food Company to re-create one of their favourite recipes – these Vegan Almond Butter Brownies – so of course I was happy to give them a whirl! I’ve edited the original recipe slightly (see edits below with an *) but was really happy with the […]
Sweet Treats
Sweet Potato, Blueberry & White Chocolate Donuts
When you combine sweet potato, blueberries and white chocolate, you get these delicious squidgy colourful donuts. I had a load of cooked sweet potato to use after I’d made dinner and I fancied making something sweet – but not another batch of sweet potato brownies 🙂 So I looked in my cupboards, fridge and freezer […]
Pear, Berry & Chocolate Crumble
Another recipe that can definitely be served for breakfast as well as dessert – because you know, it contains fruit, oats, nuts, good fats, not too much sugar and…a cheeky bit of gut-friendly OhSo chocolate! Simple to whip up, use whatever fruit you have in the fridge, fruit bowl or freezer – it’s a really […]
Chocolate, Fruit & Seed Protein Bars
Use store-cupboard ingredients to make these easy, healthy and slightly more indulgent bars for an energy boosting snack (and to satisfy those chocolate cravings!). Great for kids to enjoy as well as adults at any time of day, you can use whatever dried fruit or nuts/seeds you have available. Ingredients: For the base – 150g […]
Chocolate Cheesecake Pots
I love a dessert recipe that is easy to make, doesn’t involve too many complicated ingredients and results in a rich, decadent sweet treat that’s super chocolatey! Simply whizz up the base ingredients that you also use for the topping, whizz up the sweet potato-based filling, chill in the fridge and there you go! Ingredients: […]

Ingredients: 2 overripe bananas 4 tablespoons smooth peanut or almond butter 3 tablespoons maple syrup or honey 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 150g Mornflake Creamy Superfast Oats 40g coconut / brown sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon baking powder 30g chopped nuts (walnuts and hazelnuts work well) 40g dark chocolate chips 30g dried banana pieces Get […]
Chocolate Berry Cheesecake
This delicious indulgent dessert is made from a rich chocolate ‘flapjack’ base which doubles as energy balls to decorate, and is topped with a creamy, high protein chocolate layer to complete this decadent treat. An easy no-bake recipe, this type of ‘cheesecake’ is one of my favourite things to whizz up and keep in the […]
Blueberry Carrot Donuts
These gorgeously decorated donuts are actually made from a carrot cake mixture studded with colourful, juicy blueberries for a delicious twist. Topped with a vanilla frosting, I’ve used one of my favourite products to create the finishing touch on these pretty treats – freeze-dried blueberries from Lio Licious, which add a satisfying, tangy crunch to […]
4-Ingredient Cookies
This is probably the easiest, simplest recipe I’ve ever posted on this blog – it contains 4 INGREDIENTS! And the result? Delicious chewy cookies that are made from all the good stuff! High in fibre, bursting with energy and the perfect healthy snack for a sweet tooth, feel free to replace the raisins for other […]
Chocolate Hazelnut Carrot Cake Baked Oats
Calling all Nutella fans! You need the new Hazelnut Chocolate Spread from Cocofina in your life. It means serious business; rich, indulgent, the right balance of chocolate and hazelnut flavours while being just sweet enough – and beautifully silky smooth. This organic vegan palm oil-free chocolate spread [gifted] is dangerously easy to eat straight from […]
Chocolate Peanut Butter Easter Cake
With Easter coming up, chocolate springs to mind (obviously – and excuse the pun there 🙂 ) so when Superfood Bakery got in touch [paid post] to create a recipe using their Smile Seeker Chocolate Cake mix to celebrate the occasion, this sounded like the perfect fit. If you’ve not heard of Superfood Bakery Natural […]
Chocolate Cookie Dough Easter Bars
Would an Easter recipe be complete without some form of ‘mini eggs’? I think not! These insane, crisp and crunchy peanut M&M’s from Miiro [gifted] are the perfect treat right now, especially to decorate an Easter creation like this one, AND they’re vegan, gluten-free and contain 33% less sugar than similar products making them ideal […]
Baked Berry Cheesecake
Who doesn’t love a good cheesecake? An oat base and baked topping made with an added boost of berry protein to add flavour and a hint of colour, combined with berries and flowers for a super pretty dessert. This would be ideal for Mother’s Day coming up to celebrate with the wonderful women in your […]
Cacao Quinoa Crunch Bites
A crunchy base and topping with a deliciously rich cacao filling…These bites are ideal for an energy boosting snack or treat to satisfy those sweet cravings. Using quinoa and seeds results in an extra nutty flavour which really boosts the taste and texture. I used the raw cacao chocolate sauce from Broma Foods (vegan, no […]
Berry, Peach & Chocolate Loaf
I love a simple recipe where you can bang a load of ingredients in a bowl, whack it in a tin and bake – then out it comes, looking pretty and even better, tastes amazing! This mixture can be made into muffins, donuts, even a cake – either way the result is a moist sponge […]
