How good is Strawberry season? It does have feel like it has taken a little longer to hit than normal. Up to a couple of weeks ago strawberries were still upwards of $3 for a 250gm punnet, you can now grab one for $1 which means we can makes gluts of ourselves and eat them, […]

Cafe Style Banana Bread
I finally had two overripe bananas in the fruit bowl this week, for the past couple of weeks the kids had been demolishing them and I had been craving banana bread – this week I was finally able to make banana bread. While I have many banana bread combinations here to choose from, I decided […]
Chocolate Pumpkin Loaf
Yes, I am at it again cramming some vegetable into my baked goods. I had a quarter of a pumpkin in the fridge that need to be used and I knew it wasn’t going to end up in a soup or be roasted so i pureed it and added it to a chocolate loaf. The […]
Honey and Oat Bars
These Honey and Oat Bars make for the perfect breakfast either on the run or when you don’t have time to make something in the morning. I was strolling the “healthy food aisle” of the supermarket last week and spied a honey and oat bar that was close to $3 for one. I read the […]
Banana, Strawberry and White Chocolate Muffins
A few lonely strawberries that were a little past good eating were sitting the fridge on my Sunday baking day for the school lunchboxes. We pretty much stick to muffins as they are easy for the boys to eat and easy to pack in the lunchbox, I do however make all different types of flavour […]
Pork and Apple Sausage Rolls
We love sausage rolls and I love finding different flavour combinations to make. This time I have used pork mince with apple and cheese and it works really well. The addition of carrot makes it a lovely sweet savoury sausage roll. With amazing flavours you won’t be able to go back to store bought sausage […]
Lemon and White Chocolate Biscuits
I am continuing my love for lemon and all things that are in season with these Lemon and White Chocolate Biscuits. The lemon creates that lovely sherbet flavour when combined into a biscuit mix and the white chocolate adds a lovely creamy chunk as you bite through. Your not going to need much convincing to […]
Cherry Chocolate Bliss Balls
If you are a regular reader you will know that I love bliss balls. They make for a better sweet treat option than grabbing a chocolate bar. This Cherry Chocolate variety are a tad sweeter than my normal bliss balls due to the inclusion of the glace cherries which makes these more of a treat […]
Banana and Strawberry Bread
Strawberries are finally coming back in season which means the prices are starting to drop. I refuse to buy strawberries when they are $5 for a 250gm punnet, it seems like such a ridiculous price to pay and they are usually overripe and mushy because no one else is buying them either. I actually hate […]
