This recipe started off as a way to finish some random quantities of oats, almonds and nut butter I had lying around. I had only the vaguest idea of amounts and exact ingredients, but I took notes along the way and ended up with a delicious, super quick snack/dessert, packed with a lot of good…

Double Chocolate Banana Bread (Eggless)
This banana bread is absolutely addictive but if you can, don’t eat it all on day one, it gets better the next day! A double chocolate version of this reader-favourite eggless banana bread, this one has cocoa and plenty of chocolate chunks to satisfy all cravings. It’s moist and flavourful thanks to the olive oil…
Roasted Zucchini Pesto Lasagna
The last savoury recipe I posted (these incredible onion cheddar rolls) was almost a year ago and each time I do share one here, I wonder why I don’t do it more and vow not to let cake distract me so easily. Well. We’re here now! And this lasagna is just so good, it’ll make…
Strawberry Tres Leches Cake
Back with another flavour variation of tres leches cake! A classic Latin American dessert, this is a soft sponge cake soaked in three milks (‘tres leches’) to create a moist, light and very refreshing dessert. This strawberry version is a great way to celebrate the season. It’s fruity and bright and tastes better the longer…
Chocolate Vanilla Heart Surprise Cake
Once again, I caved to the heart-shaped tug of Valentine’s Day and decided to do a chocolate version of this pink heart surprise cake from many years ago. I’m still not very sure what this kind of cake is actually called, but Google some combination ‘hidden’, ‘surprise’, ‘heart’, ‘inside’, and you’ll find it! It’s very…
Fudgy Chocolate Pecan Rum Cake
This cake is decadent and celebratory and checks all of the boxes that in my world, make a great cake. Rich, fudgy, chocolatey, and worth the (slightly more than average) effort that it takes. Ground pecans and melted bittersweet chocolate give this cake it’s dense but soft consistency. A dark chocolate ganache with chopped toasted…
Everyday Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’m going to confidently say these are the best, the only chocolate chip cookies I ever want to eat. I call these ‘everyday’ cookies because you really can make them every single day. The dough is simple, quick and I’ve now turned it into a one-bowl recipe, yaaaaaay. It doesn’t need to be chilled for…
Chocolate Chip Crumb Cake
Soft chocolate cake, gooey chocolate filling, chocolate crumbs on top, chocolate chips in each layer. This cake is the one to satisfy any and every chocolate craving! It tastes even better the next day, travels well and if you warm up a piece just enough to make those chocolate chips perfectly melty, well, you’re doing…
Orange Olive Oil Cake
I couldn’t be more pleased with the first cake I baked in the new year! Super soft, moist from the olive oil and yoghurt, fragrant with a hint of orange. A quick orange glaze adds more flavour but if you leave it out, the cake is absolutely delicious by itself too. Get a cup of…
