Sharing gluten free, pescetarian and FODMAP friendly recipes from Melbourne, Australia
It’s a mouthful (figuratively and literally) but today we’re talking dark chocolate and blueberry studded brown butter banana bread. Although there are millions of banana bread recipes floating around (including one in my own cookbook) the limit does not exist, as far as I’m concerned.

In my pre-vegetarian, pre-FODMAP days, I was particularly partial to a good mince bolognese. So much so that I was always willing to be the person to painstakingly crush the mince into little pieces. I couldn’t allow someone else to cook/ruin my beloved mince, the only form of meat I would eat. These days, however,…

ALMOND BUTTER COOKIES For something that is so simple, a regular cookie is a hard thing to master. There are so many variables when it comes to a good quality cookie. The flours used, the butter (is it brown? Regular? Vegan? Coconut?) – to name but a few. Regular cookies are subject to the whims…

By now you all know that I love me a galette. Having the patience of a youthful chimpanzee, I loathe crimping pastry into neat little fluted tins or shapes. Particularly gluten free pastry, which is fickle at the best of times. You also probably know of my new affinity for quinoa flour, and quinoa pastry.…

I’ve demonstrated before (on Instagram, in my cookbook) that I love a good dukkah roasted carrot salad. I also tried to demonstrate my love for hummus in my cookbook, but I ended up inadvertently making baba ganoush. So today is a groundbreaking day for my FODMAP self: I’ve made zucchini hummus. Don’t get me wrong,…

Whenever I’m feeling sorry for my FODMAP self, I think of the low FODMAP vegans. As a general rule, vegans (or the vegans I see on Instagram, please forgive me) seem to eat a lot of fruit, and a lot of legumes – both heavily restricted on the FODMAP diet. If I couldn’t rely on…

Bougie hot cross buns. You’ve heard about them, you’ve eaten them, you’ve seen them on the ‘gram. Today we’re jumping right into the concept, with these gluten free pumpkin hot cross buns. They’re gluten free, they’re FODMAP friendly, and they’re bougie as hell. Firstly, let me clear the air by saying that the pumpkin does…

Winter feels like it’s here in Melbourne, and I personally couldn’t be happier. Not only is it the season of me wearing pyjama tops disguised under fancy coats, it is the season of soup. And why not kick of the season of soup with a Moroccan spiced pumpkin soup? Written, conveniently, whist in pyjamas? I…

I’ve seen a lot of recipes in my time that purport to be tea flavoured. By adding a teaspoon of tea leaves, the recipe writer ticks a box, and gets to add an exotic flair to their recipe title, without any real tea flavour. NOT TODAY, friends. Today we’re deep diving into the world of…

Sweet potato hemp pizza bases. Yes, allow me to expand. I’ve been having a bit of a moment with hemp recently. Given it’s protein and omega content, hemp is a ‘superfood’ that I can absolutely get on board with. It is creamy, delicious, nutritious, and easy to incorporate into meals. I’ve previously made a hemp…

We’ve done vegan choc chip cookies and we’ve done vegan snickers cookies. Today we’re doing double chocolate vegan cookies. Some might call it ‘desperately clinging on to a good thing’ but I’m branding it as a ‘helpful resource.’ Either way the PR slant goes, this double chocolate vegan cookies are THE GOODS. Like their predecessors,…

Sometimes, you don’t want avocado on toast for breakfast. Sometimes you want waffles for breakfast. Gluten free waffles. I have a fascination with all things a little bit fancy, but I realised recently that simple recipes are so important. I’ve made gluten free banana pancakes, oat and polenta waffles (in the cookbook) but never just…
