Cooking, Travel & Eating Out on a Grain-Free, Gluten-Free & Refined Sugar-Free Diet
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 …
After making a big batch of my Hollandaise Sauce I was left with some egg whites to use up. I was after something sweet so I decided to make these Refined Sugarfree Coconut Macaroons. They’re so easy to make, one bowl and just mix it …
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 …
Easter is around the corner and the shops are full of chocolate eggs, bunnies and hot cross buns. It’s a sugar-overload everywhere you look! So what can you treat yourself with at Easter if you can’t tolerate refined-sugars? Look no further as I have some …

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 …
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 …
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 …
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 …
Some foods only come into their own at a certain Christmassy time of year. Mulled Wine, Turkey and of course Mincemeat. The Christmas season hasn’t really started until you’ve had your first Mince Pie of the year and that spicy, fruity flavour is so comforting …
