This blood orange, burrata and pine-nut salad is basically a two for one. Two for one with my previous recipe, spiced roasted pumpkin with radicchio, pine nuts, fetta and Christmas dressing. Toast a couple of extra pine nuts, make double the dressing and boom! You have two salads with about 10 minutes extra work. A Christmas…

Gluten free tomato tart with gruyere and pesto
I told you I’d be back with more pastry recipes, didn’t I? After testing recipes on some guinea pigs (aka friends) at Friendmas, I’ve got a new pastry recipe to share. Say hello to your festive, dietary requirement hail Mary: the gluten free tomato tart. Friendmas taught me a few things this past week. Firstly,…
Read MoreGluten free brie cranberry wreath with flaky pastry
A foolproof and easy gluten free pastry has eluded me for a while now. In part, because gluten free baking in general is a pickle friend. In (more significant) part, because pastry intimidates me. There’s nothing more liberating than facing your fears, however, and as a result I have realised that gluten free pastry isn’t…
Read MoreGluten free spiced pumpkin muffins
Very heavily riffing on my spiced pumpkin cake with choc-chai buttercream, I’m doing festive things today with these gluten free spiced pumpkin muffins. Is this because I’m lazy and copying my own work, you ask? Well, partly yes. Is it also because I believe in the portability of dessert? Absolutely. GLUTEN FREE SPICED PUMPKIN MUFFINS…
Read MoreVegan, gluten free banana bread (FODMAP friendly, refined sugar free)
We all know the universal symbol of banana bread: a freezer entirely overrun with darkened, overripe bananas. I counted at least 9 in my freezer the other day, so I decided it was well and truly time to bake, and to bake vegan, gluten free banana bread. I’ve previously shared a recipe for a brown…
Read MoreChewy peanut butter bars with a chocolate coating (vegan, gluten free, FODMAP friendly, refined sugar free)
I am well renowned for the quantity of peanut butter I consume. If it weren’t somewhat grotesque and slightly concerning, it would actually be pretty impressive. So why not fuel my own addiction, I figured, by making chewy peanut butter bars slathered in dark chocolate? Kind of like a nougat-less Snickers (because I watched Gourmet…
Read MoreGluten free nut free brownies (with dark brown butter, double chocolate and sea salt flakes)
I did mention back when I did the gluten free brownies and the gluten free vegan brownies that I’d be back. Having gorged myself on various iterations of gluten free choc chip cookies (vegan and regular) recently, I needed a cookie break. Naturally, I turned back to brownies. Gluten free AND nut free brownies. Using…
Read MoreGluten free choc chip cookies using brown butter (egg free, nut free, FODMAP friendly)
Gluten free choc chip cookies. They’ve been a bit of a thing around here recently, I know. Buoyed by the success of the vegan, gluten free choc chip cookies from last week and the somewhat healthier almond butter version, I’m back, baby. This time with a nut and egg free version that utilises the richness of…
