Sharing gluten free, pescetarian and FODMAP friendly recipes from Melbourne, Australia
I have been on a true Bon Appetit Youtube channel bender these last few weeks. While It’s Alive with Brad Leone is undoubtedly my favourite show (if you know, you know) something else caught my eye, too. Claire’s cherry cobbler. Watching Claire make a cobbler was an enlightening and emboldening experience, to say the…

After realising that my favourite version of the recent brownie was in fact the vegan variety, I have had a vegan baking epiphany. There’s something so triumphant about creating cookies that seemingly shouldn’t be able to exist. AKA: vegan chocolate chip cookies, that are also gluten free, nut free and FODMAP friendly. No egg substitutes,…

I’m learning that brownies, much like cookies, are an unexpected art form. On the surface, it would seem that brownies are fairly straightforward. Mix it up, bake it, slice it, eat it. On closer inspection, however, one realises that there is a world of possibility and a world of proper brownie technique. Today, we’re delving…

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,…

Initially, this recipe was intended to be a roasted capsicum salad, the likes of which you have seen (multiple times) before on my Instagram. However, I foresaw that many might take umbrage with cheese and capsicum being titled salad. More than that, though, I realised that bread underneath the salad was what really made it…

This gluten-free lime curd tart was inspired by a few things. Firstly, I was lucky enough to find some finger limes at a local farm produce store, Torello. Finger limes are a native Australian delicacy – they’re almost like a tart fruit caviar, little balls of citrus that burst with flavour. Secondly, I had always…

Since my digestive system crumbled into a heap, it has always pained me that I cannot provide my Instagram followers/myself with the pure aesthetic vision that is an apple galette. For me personally, apple galettes are both the height of sophistication and the height of my own digestive distress. Apples and I broke up a…

There are some recipes that get me more excited than others. Super excited. These gluten free vegan sausages are one of those recipes. As a University student, I lived on a reliable diet of vegetarian sausages and mixed greens. As my digestive system became progressively less reliable, however, I found that my beloved sausages started…

Yes, I’m writing another sourdough related recipe. Courtesy of my new obsession with gluten free sourdough, I have a lot of sourdough discard on my hands.

Well today we’re back on the topic with these vegan, gluten-free Graham crackers. After the success of the non-vegan gluten free graham cracker recipe, I thought it was only fair. There are so many applications for…

If you asked me to choose the muffin variety I’d eat forever, it would be the blueberry muffin. There’s something about the flavour of a vanilla based batter infused with gooey blueberries that really speaks to me. Needless to say, gluten-free classic blueberry muffins have been sorely missing from my recipe collection thus far. Today…

Just like with the gluten free sourdough, I was planning to save this gluten free Hedgehog Slice recipe for a new cookbook and/or a rainy day. If you reside in Melbourne metro, you’ll know: it’s a rainy day. What do we do on a rainy day? We bake! I suspect that Hedgehog Slice is a…
