Glowing yellow, this cake oozes lemon flavour. It stays moist for several days kept in a tin, and is a real classic hit for afternoon tea. …

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….
Provençal Loaf
A delicious savoury, moist loaf from the south of France – the recipe comes from our friend Julien. We would call this a bread, but in France it’s called cake (Cake Salé Provençal) – We think it’s magnificent … Merci Julien !…
Lemon Tart
This is a super quick lemon tart and makes our tasty lemon curd the star of the show! Lovely as a dessert or afternoon tea. You can make it extra special with a drizzle of melted chocolate across the top! (great combo)!…
Lemon Curd
Zing up your spring and your taste buds with this tangy lemon curd. It’s good on toast or a scone and a spoonful into yoghurt makes a quick and easy dessert. Even better, it’s used in our scrumptious lemon tart. …
Anna’s Buckwheat & Orange Cake
This is a gluten free version of Laura’s boyfriend’s mum, Anna’s recipe – it’s Greek. It’s a fantastic gluten free buckwheat sponge – it rises and has a lovely texture! Laura added the glaze and a little orange juice to give a shiny top, but it’s totally gorgeous without it. The cake is big enough to be cut in half and filled with jam or fruit if you want but it’s lovely just as it is in our opinion. Thanks Anna!…
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. …
Gluten Free Figgy Fruit Loaf
We love this loaf! It’s really rich in fruit and just fab paired with cheese and an apple in the afternoon. It’s almost even better than cake! Really?…Yes! Really! Easy to make, but takes a wee while in the oven and make sure that you soak the fruit in advance. Other than that – easy peasy! …
Toastie Granola
Are you looking for the perfect breakfast, that’s speedy, easy to prepare and keeps you going all morning? This great combination really provides the energy you need on a working day. Make it on a Sunday and it will last the whole week served with fruit compote, yoghurt, fresh fruit and milk of your choice (soya, almond, rice – whatever). Mix it up! It’s always tasty. …
Flapjacks
This recipe has been a staple in our family since we started going to school. It’s gone through several reinventions and reworkings in its time and is almost unrecognisable from the orginal. They make an excellent snack, rich in energy and of course tastiness….
