In 2001 (2 years before being diagnosed with coeliac disease) me and Neil holidayed in St Eulalia, Ibiza. We arrived at our hotel in the early hours of the morning.

After reading the latest Lickedspoon Substack newsletter by Debora Robertson, I was inspired to make a gluten free version of the simple French chocolate cake recipe she shared. I’m a huge fan of Debora Robertson. Last year I treated myself to her book, Notes from a small kitchen Island. It’s a book I cannot wait […]
I rustled up this delicious brown basmati, red camargue and wild rice salad the other day. It happened to be the hottest day on record in the UK and the yummy rice salad proved to be the perfect light lunch to enjoy when the weather was a little too hot to handle! This fresh, vibrant […]

This delightfully soft, flavoursome chocolate banana bread is studded with chocolate chips and is one of those cakes that tastes even better a day or […]

I’m a fan of coconut cake and have wanted to get a recipe for one on the blog for some time. The recipe I’ve gone with is something I popped together as a bit of a trial a few weeks ago and I was delighted with the result. This gluten free iced coconut cake is […]
It’s with sheer delight, that I share this truly scrumptious gluten free steamed sponge recipe with you. I have a steamed jam sponge recipe already on the blog, but I know how popular steamed syrup pud is, so I thought you wouldn’t mind me tempting you with this one too.
I was lucky enough to spend a few extremely happy years of my childhood, living in a rather wonderful Scottish seaside town called Thurso. It was whilst living in Thurso, that I got to try Scotch pancakes for the first time. This was thanks to our neighbour, who we affectionately called Auntie Jannetta, popping round […]
