SCD Peanut Butter Cookies

SCD Peanut Butter Cookies

I never really had a sweet tooth until I got pregnant, and both times it ended up being what I craved throughout the pregnancy (and the craving didn’t go away afterwards).  I used to be a ‘cheese and crackers’ as a snack girl but these 

Grainfree Mince Pies

Grainfree Mince Pies

Nothing quite says Christmas like a mince pie – it really feels like the festive season has started when you get your first taste of that sweet, spiced fruit flavour!  It evokes such a festive feeling – we always have a mince pie and a 

Savoury Grainfree Pumpkin Seed Butter Muffins

Savoury Grainfree Pumpkin Seed Butter Muffins

One of my favourite lunches is soup, and soup is usually served with a nice crusty bread roll.  I love some kind of bread with my soup and sliced bread doesn’t always do it.  Sometimes you want something you can rip a chunk off, slather 

Hot Cross Bun Muffins

Hot Cross Bun Muffins

Easter is nearly here and nothing screams Easter more than Hot Cross Buns.  That sweet, cinnamon and fruit flavour reminds me of Easter afternoons in front of the fire and I love a toasted Hot Cross Bun with lashings of melted butter.  I knew I 

Bitesized Grainfree Black Bean Brownies

Bitesized Grainfree Black Bean Brownies

Brownies – the ultimate in decadent treats!  Fudgy, gooey, squidgy bites of chocolatey deliciousness – can you tell I’m a fan?  I’ve made Grainfree Brownies previously using almond flour and coconut milk but there’s been a lot of hype recently about black bean brownies so 

Grainfree Maple Walnut Banana Bread

Grainfree Maple Walnut Banana Bread

It’s been a long-standing joke that 2020 was the year of the banana bread. Being stuck at home, many people have turned to baking and banana bread is an obvious place to start for novice bakers.  It’s such an easy recipe to master and once 

Individual Grainfree Apple & Cinnamon Crumbles

Individual Grainfree Apple & Cinnamon Crumbles

I don’t normally make desserts as neither Dan nor I have a sweet tooth, but when we have guests over I make the extra effort – and if I’m making a dessert, I might as well make one that I can eat, right?  This time 

SCD Christmas Cake – Grainfree Glutenfree Fruit Cake

SCD Christmas Cake – Grainfree Glutenfree Fruit Cake

For me, the Christmas season always feels like it begins when I make the Christmas Cake. You have to make it in advance and ‘feed’ it (see further down for how to do this) with whisky until the big day so it’s best to start

(Garbanzo Bean) Chickpea Flour Blinis

(Garbanzo Bean) Chickpea Flour Blinis

I’ve made blinis with coconut flour before and while I can’t discern much of a coconutty flavour in them, others can.  I decided to try to create the recipe in a similar way using chickpea (garbanzo bean)  flour.  Chickpea flour worked so well in my 

Grainfree Almond Flour Raisin Scones

Grainfree Almond Flour Raisin Scones

Is there anything more quintessentially British than a classic Cream Tea?  I thought afternoon tea would be a thing of the past when I started this grain-free, sugar-free way of eating but, as always, there’s a way to adapt any recipe to suit this plan.  

Grainfree Carrot and Courgette Cake

Grainfree Carrot and Courgette Cake

It was Dan’s birthday so it was cake time!  Cakes are always tricky in our house, two of us are grain-free, one doesn’t eat chocolate and one eats everything!  Carrot cake got the thumbs up from everyone so I set about making a grain-free one…to
