I thought I’d run out of ways to cook strawberries but yay, not yet! This crumble was born basically from a need to finish off random hazelnuts sitting in the fridge and a half bag of buckwheat flour (more ideas welcome!). A gluten-free crumble is so so so easy to make, and even though I’m not giving…

Georgian Khachapuri
My week in Russia last October was filled with a surprising amount of really great food, considering I went there with the assumption of seeing no good vegetarian food. So wrong. Tons of lovely veggies and all of the cheese in the world is basically my kind of balanced diet. And if there’s cheese stuffed…
Strawberry Chia Jam
I’m making about 50 more bottles of this jam before strawberry season ends and you really should too! It’s so ridiculously easy, so flavourful aaaaaand healthy. No refined sugar, just a little honey if you like and orange zest to take it from fruity to a little citrusy and it’s quite brilliant.
Orange Cranberry Biscotti
I can safely say that I’ve already eaten what is probably my entire year’s quota of cookies. And it’s only mid-January. Thankfully, my resolution in 2018 had nothing to do with not eating cookies. It has everything to do with trying new things in life which is super vague, but gives me room to figure…
Quinoa Peanut Butter Bars (Vegan, Gluten-Free)
So apparently the first weekend binge of the year is going to be filled with superfoods. Stay with me, I promise these are as addictive as cookies. These crunchy quinoa bars have peanut butter, flax seed, chia seeds, almonds, raisins and honey. They’re absolutely bursting with good health and good stuff. Don’t you just feel…
Nutella Swirled Banana Bread (Eggless)
Happy new year, everyone! I hope 2018 has gotten off to a great start for you but just in case the post-holiday blues are hitting you hard, have no fear. We shall always have Nutella. Gooey, sticky banana bread swirled with tons of Nutella all through it. Because if we’re making cake, we might as…
Whiskey Raisin Cake with Caramel Glaze
If it’s not wine, I won’t drink it, but I will eat it. Apparently pouring whiskey into everything is my favourite thing to do this Christmas. It began with having no rum at home, and since the flavours of both liquors are very similar in baked goods, it seemed like the most obvious thing to…
Gingerbread Cake with Boozy Apples
Christmas Day is less than a week away so I say bring out all the ginger you have and let’s go to town! We’re making gingerbread, dark and tender and moist and spiced and citrusy. And then we’re topping it all with apples cooked in butter, sugar and whiskey because it’s not a party without…
Roasted Strawberry and Mascarpone Cake
I made you a cake that’s red and white because ’tis the season and it’s frosted in what looks and tastes like vanilla ice cream, except it’s basically a ton of fluffy whipped cream and mascarpone. Also, it happens to be layered with strawberries roasted in balsamic vinegar because we’re making the most of these…
