Caramelised Cinnamon Apple Brownies
Healthy home baking. That’s what many of us want, right? But time can be an issue, or not being confident in the kitchen when it comes to making healthy treats, even being unsure of where to get ingredients from and not wanting to spend a fortune… Although this is a big part of my job, […]
Chocolate Peanut Butter Donuts

Apple, Raisin & Cinnamon Baked Oats
If I had to pick a favourite fruit, apples would definitely be up there. They have to be crisp, juicy, not too sweet or too tart, and mostly red with a green twinge. I eat at least one a day; as it is, chopped up and added to a big bowl of yogurt and berries, […]

Potter’s Chocolate & Cinnamon Malt Biscuits
I’m always up for a challenge, so when Potter’s got in touch to see if I was interested in trying their malt extract and re-creating a festive recipe, of course I accepted.
