A traditional dessert with a massive hit of lemon to freshen things up. Combining cooking apples and a gluten free, light as air sponge, this is a lovely end to a meal. The apples cook under the sponge, making them lovely and pulpy! Delicious served with a dollop vegan yoghurt or dairy free custard….

Apple Almond Sultana Cake
This pretty cake uses a decent quantity of cooking apples, so is very moist and keeps well for quite a few days, improving after the first day, so it’s a handy one to make ahead of time if that’s your style! It’s lovely with a cup of tea or served warm as a dessert. …
Apple Crisps
An easy way to preserve apples! If they are falling off the trees around your ears then use our simple recipe to keep them yummy for longer. These make great snacks for all and will keep in a jar for quite a while….
Kale Kiwi Apple Smoothie
Sometimes we lack inspiration when it comes to breakfast and just pour milk over processed cereal…but it’s really boring! So we hope this will give you the courage to spice things up a bit. Kale may not seem like the most appealing vegetable to eat raw, however in this context you get all of its green goodness but very little of its taste. Apple and kiwi bring a delicious freshness to this smoothie and make it a really enjoyable and healthy start to the day. …
Vegan Apple Ice Cream
It might seem a bit chilly for ice cream but we think it’s a lovely palate cleanser after a spicy curry. Even the most dedicated vegan should be able to enjoy great ice cream! This autumnal Apple flavoured ice cream is really refreshing and great served with fresh apple slices and amaretti or other crunchy biscuits if you like. …
Apple & Bramble Tart
If you want to catch the last of the season’s brambles, this recipe pairs them perfectly with tart apples for a delicious and very pretty tart or tartlette. If you’re too late for brambles in your area, the tart works perfectly well without or you could swap them for another berry of your choice. Don’t be put off by the fact that you have to make your own pastry – it really is easy and if it falls apart just patch it together and press to conceal the cracks – everything will go right in the oven! This is lovely on any afternoon tea table, especially if made in the smaller size, or ideal as a weekend dessert. Serve with ice cream or it’s also just great on its own.
Apple Cake
Apple or Pear & Ginger Cake
This is a pudding style cake that is strong with fresh root ginger. The pear version is more moist and the apple version is great for afternoon tea. We used coconut sugar in this recipe, but if you feel it’s too expensive, it would work with date syrup instead. The texture is lovely and satisfying and like a proper cake – it doesn’t taste gluten free at all! If you’re a ginger fiend like us, this is the cake for you….
Fruit Compote
This recipe relies on you having frozen fruit – it’s easy to get in most supermarkets if you don’t already have it stored in your freezer. We love this with yoghurt and our granola in the morning or served in the evening as a simple dessert with a dollop of crème fraîche. …
Apple Tart
We’ve had this recipe requested on several occasions because the gluten free pastry is ‘better than normal pastry’! The shortcrust pastry is delicious, crisp and this makes a great tart for dessert or afternoon tea. Bramley apples are the best as the top layer retain their beautiful shape and the underneath go nice and pulpy….
