Well this double chocolate tart is just for you! A base made from nuts, […]

Mini Christmas Puddings
I must admit I’ve never been a fan of Christmas pudding, as a child and even now when gluten-free versions are available. But I absolutely adore the sweet, warming hints of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg alongside the strong, bold flavours of dried fruit and nuts. These little treats are inspired by the festive classic made […]
Vegan White Chocolate, Cacao & Coconut Bites
Here’s a story about this recipe – it was featured in the October issue of Vegan Living magazine which was pretty cool! I always love seeing my recipes and photography in print; there’s something so satisfying about it, something that bit more meaningful than simply seeing it on a screen. It’s one of my favourite […]
Pumpkin & Chocolate Swirl Slice
Pumpkin is incredibly popular at this time of year – mostly as a means of carving and creating scary designs, but we shouldn’t let that delicious mild flesh inside go to waste! Remove the thick skin, cut into cubes and steam then blend – and there you go, your very own (cheaper) pumpkin puree. I […]
Lemon Curd Cheesecake Slices
You may know from some of the recipes I post on here or through my Instagram account that I’m a proud Barebells content creator – making monthly recipes using the brand’s high protein snack bars or shakes. They’ve recently launched a brand new flavour bar – LEMON CURD – which is absolutely insane…and they created […]
Berry Coconut Chocolate Bites
A nutty oat chocolate base, berry coconut filling, rich chocolate topping and a extra special sprinkle of raspberries, coconut – and Barebells Coco Chocolate no added sugar protein bar for extra richness. I love no-bake recpes – especially ones with gorgeous colourful layers! – and these are one of my favourite recent ones I’ve created. […]
White Chocolate, Berry & Almond Tarts
It happens to be a coincidence that it’s dairy week on Great British Bake Off (believe it or not, I’m a huge fan of the show haha) at the same time as sharing this divine dessert recipe. A no-bake chocolate oat base filled with vanilla yogurt and finished with berries, almonds and my favourite Barebells […]
Tropical No Bake Muesli Bars
A super easy recipe using only SIX ingredients, these healthy bars are bursting with natural energy and tropical vibes. Thanks to a delivery from Dorset Cereals in celebration of the launch of their new gluten-free muesli range (hooray!), I thought I’d incorporate one of them into a simple recipe that all the family can enjoy. […]
Chocolate Hazelnut Cookie Dough Bites
So here we have a nutty, oaty chocolate base, a high protein cookie dough layer smothered in a rich dark chocolate topping with crunchy hazelnuts and cacao nibs. The dream right?! These little indulgent bites are huge in flavour and a certain to satisfy a sweet tooth and chocolate cravings. You might look at the […]
Cranberry, Hemp Seed & Carob Flapjack
If you love chocolate, something you may not have heard of or tried before is CAROB. It’s a slightly different taste to cacao and cocoa – I personally think it tastes sweeter, creamier and less bitter – and unlike cocoa powder and chocolate, carob is caffeine-free plus it contains three times as much calcium and is higher in dietary fibre. […]
Toffee Popcorn Caramel Tarts
“It’s a first in the UK. It’s innovative. It’s delicious. It’s different from everything you’ve seen before.” What am I talking about? Popcorn Shed’s Mini Pop, popcorn made from an ancient grain of white corn, which pops into tiny pieces that are about half the size the regularly popcorn – still as tasty but smaller […]
Chocolate, Cherry & Almond Tart
You may or may not be aware that Spanish Picota cherry season is upon us! And if you’re like me and LOVE juicy, slightly sweet but also slightly tart, firm but soft cherries, then I hope you’ll appreciate this [sponsored] post. Distinguished by their flavour and sweetness, Picota cherries are unique to the Jerte Valley […]
Chocolate Orange Brownie Cups
Guys, you need to get 7th July in your diary…Why? Because it’s WORLD CHOCOLATE DAY! This might be something many of you celebrate every day (me included) but it’s great to have a dedicated day where we can all embrace and enjoy this wonderful ingredient. Luxury chocolatiers Lily O’Brien’s got in touch to create a dessert […]
Matcha Cherry Cheesecake Pots
In the summer months I love creating light, delicious desserts that don’t take ages to make and and can simply be whizzed up, thrown together and left in the fridge. Which is where this easy recipes comes in, which couples matcha and cherry to create a vibrant combination of colours, while silken tofu is the […]
