Spiced Sweet Potato and Whole Wheat Bundt Cake

Some bakes feel like they arrive at just the right moment, and this Spiced Sweet Potato and Whole Wheat Bundt Cake was one of them. I had some sweet potato waiting to be used, and with the days turning cooler, I found myself craving something warm, cosy, and […]

Wholewheat Orange and Pistachio Cake

I made this Wholewheat Orange and Pistachio Cake the other day — simple, wholesome, and full of gentle flavour. It’s the kind of cake that feels right for everyday baking — light, soft, and just sweet enough to bring a bit of brightness to an ordinary day. The […]

This rustic and wholesome spiced apple and banana wholewheat cake with walnuts and dates that I made a couple of days ago is something you need to try. It is super easy to make and full of spicy warmth, perfect for this autumn, or any time of the […]

Baked, seeded lentil crackers

Not everything I make this season is about sweets — though those certainly have their place! Sometimes, it’s the savoury nibbles, like these baked, seeded lentil crackers, that bring just as much comfort, especially when they come warm from your own oven, full of good things and no […]

A couple of weeks ago, I made Doi bengena I Aubergine in yoghurt gravy (also known as dahi baingan), and it reminded me why I keep coming back to these simple, everyday dishes. It’s one of those recipes that doesn’t take much to put together, but still feels […]

Sage and red onion sausage rolls

I’ve been making these sage and red onion sausage rolls for years. When the kids were small, they decided they were far too fancy to be called regular sausage rolls — and so they became known as Mum’s Posh Sausage Rolls. The name stuck, and honestly, it makes […]

Quick and Easy Jam Tarts

Baked apricots

These baked apricots were made a couple of weeks ago. We had quite a few fresh apricots bought from the farmers market, and they were luscious. Although we did enjoy them as they were, I baked a few of them to enjoy as a quick and easy dessert. […]
