I might be biased, but I think these are the BEST cinnamon rolls. Big, fluffy, soft and absolutely delicious. This recipe is for overnight cinnamon rolls, topped with vanilla cream cheese icing. These cinnamon rolls take a bit more effort and time, but they are well worth it. And are definitely a weekend treat worth […]
I love rhubarb. Especially forced rhubarb that’s around at this time of the year. The most perfect pink. It’s just asking to be instagrammed. So I bring you rhubarb and custard blondies. Rhubarb and custard is a classic flavour combination. And blondies are just delicious, so seems like a match made in heaven. Why should […]
Tomorrow the clocks in the UK spring forward and that means it really is Springtime. And what better way to celebrate that than a Spring Cake. A sour cream lemon cake studded with blueberries, swirled with lemon curd and topped with streusel. In America they call a crumb cake like this a “coffee cake”, as […]
A moist three tiered carrot cake, layered with lemon cream cheese icing. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I love carrot cake. And you guys have loved my carrot cake loaf, so I’ve decided to write up one worthy of showing off. I really love this recipe and I hope you […]
Hurray for another small batch recipe. I’m a big fan of scaling recipes down since the start of the pandemic. Amazing how versatile the loaf tin is really. Also a big fan of blondies, so about time I scaled these down. The caramelly flavours of blondies work so well with dark chocolate chips and pecans. […]
I love this granola recipe. It’s addictively crunchy and the salt cuts through the sweetness. The addition of an egg white may sound odd, but it adds crunch without calories. It’s something I learnt from Felicity Cloake and never looked back. Get the base of the recipe right and then the elements are really down […]
Another small batch recipe. A cross between apple pie and crumble. Shortbread base, diced cinnamon apple layer topped with streusel. This recipe took me a while to get right. Might not be the prettiest thing I’ve ever baked, but these slices are delicious! Enjoy, R x
A tender cupcake with tangy notes, sweet vanilla and a bit of cocoa. Finished with whipped cream cheese icing. Delicious! For these cupcakes I recommend this brand of food colouring. If you want really red cupcakes, then supermarket colourings just do not cut it. You have to use so much and yet still won’t achieve that really vivid colour. […]
No-bake individual mini Biscoff cheesecakes. Delicious and simple to make. A Biscoff biscuit base, with a creamy Biscoff filling and even more on top. I’m trying to stick to the small batch baking (or in this case no-bake) theme, as even though we’re now in 2021, we’re still in lockdown. But I don’t want lockdown […]
Classic profiteroles filled with Chantilly cream and topped with chocolate ganache. People are scared of making choux pastry, but it really isn’t all that difficult. Just have patience! My top tips are Allow your milk, water and butter come to a rolling boil before adding the flour. This means the liquid is bubbling furiously. When […]
