This recipe for Lemon Polenta Cake is one of my favorite Nigella recipes. She has an awful lot of great recipes to chose from, but this one is very tasty! The cake is simple to make, it is gluten free and most importantly it is really, really tasty….

Orange and Ginger Marmalade
This recipe for Orange and Ginger Marmalade is adapted from a Nigel Slater recipe that can be found here. My only changes were slightly increasing the amount of ginger and reducing the lemons by one!…
Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
Warning before you start making your roasted pumpkin seeds! Don’t over bake them – they are REALLY ‘bleugh’ if over cooked. They may look all golden, crunchy and delicious but beware, under that innocent facade there is a shriveled up bitter burnt kernel which doesn’t taste good at all….
Apple Almond Cake
Almond and apple are a match made in heaven! That particular combination always reminds me of lazy, family holidays in France and eating big slices of tarte aux pomme, with its almond center and thinly glazed apples decorating the top. …
Banana Flapjacks
I’m really excited about these banana flapjacks! It’s not just because they are healthy. It’s not just because they are sweetened with honey and banana, making them refined sugar free. It’s not even that they’re a great school/work lunchbox treat. It’s because I have made a video tutorial to accompany them 🙂 . You can see it here!…
Chocolate Ice Cream
OK, so I am now a honey sweetened ice cream convert! Last week, I posted about a vanilla caramel swirl ice cream that I had made and loved, so this week I have been in ice cream making mode and have put together a few other flavors. This dark Chocolate Ice Cream is creamy, rich and indulgent and a little goes a long way….
Lavender & Honey Shortbread
Rooting around my favorite grocery store the other day, I was very excited to come across a new ingredient. I snapped it up, rushed home and tried it out! …
Vanilla Caramel Swirl Ice Cream
Oh my goodness, this Vanilla Caramel Swirl Ice Cream is good! It is a refined sugar free vanilla ice cream that is sweetened with honey and swirled with date caramel. Of course, you don’t really need to swirl it with caramel, but who in their right mind wouldn’t want swirls of caramel in their ice cream. No one I know!…
Cocoa Swirl Meringues
These meringues which are swirled with gluten free cocoa and made with organic coconut palm sugar are sublime! They are rich, caramelly, chocolatey and chewy! What more do you want from a meringue? …
Maple & Pecan Eclairs
I recently visited Toronto (what an amazing city) & returned home with a suitcase full to bursting with cans of maple syrup and packets of maple sugar. I made these maple and pecan eclairs the day I got back in an attempt to get over my end of holiday blues and to help with my jet lag! They did their job perfectly – who wouldn’t be happy and relaxed whilst feasting on maple & pecan eclairs. …
