Hard to believe that after all this time, this is my first recipe for a lactose free vanilla cheesecake. I’ve posted a chocolate and peanut butter rendition before, and my cookbooks (past and upcoming) have a cheesecake recipe.

Gluten free shortbread (nut free, gum free)
Without a shred of modesty, I am a huge fan of my recipe for gluten free brown butter shortbread. It took a lot of experimenting and the brown butter adds such a lovely nuanced flavour.

Read MoreGluten-free upside-down orange cake (nut free, gum free)
It’s blood orange season here in Australia. Which is, of course, code for ‘I had no other choice but to develop a gluten-free upside-down orange cake. I recently nailed down an easy gluten free vanilla cake recipe with no nuts, starches or gums (you can find it here). So, to cater to the nut free…

Read MoreFODMAP friendly vegetable stir-fry (gluten free, vegan)
I’ve never spent much time trying to develop a FODMAP friendly vegetable stir-fry. All of my attempts have generally come out rather bland and soggy. Initially I was quick to blame the lack of ferocious heat from my gas stove, but it was more than that. The sauce was always dull, overly salty and generally…
