Brown basmati, red camargue and wild rice salad

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 and extremely flavoursome rice salad works so well with the firm nutty textures of brown basmati, red camargue and wild rice. The ingredients I added to the rice, were based on what I had in at the time and the flavours I was craving on the day.

Gluten free chocolate banana bread

written by Elizabeth Rimmer

I’ve made this gluten free chocolate banana bread a few times now and love it. It’s a real joy to make. No fancy equipment needed. Not even an electric whisk.

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 so after it’s made. The yummy flavours seem to intensify somehow.

Leek, walnut and two cheese gluten free shortcrust tart

written by Elizabeth Rimmer

Since starting writing my own gluten free food blog, I’ve discovered many inspiring food/recipe writers and cooks; Rosie Birkett being one of them. Rosie is a recipe writer and cook, and it’s her recipe for leek, walnut and two cheese shortcrust tart that I’m about to share with you.

The original recipe for this truly scrumptious leek, walnut and two cheese tart featured in a copy of The Sunday Times magazine. Prior to the magazine being published Rosie shared a picture of the tart on instagram. The tart looked incredible and I knew I’d have to rustle one up. And I’m so glad I did, as this light, crisp, pastry tart filled to the brim with a glorious selection of wonderful ingredients, turned out to be a stunner!

Gluten free iced coconut cake

written by Elizabeth Rimmer

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 quick and easy to make and is the perfect thing to have a go at if you’re new to baking, as you simply need to pop all the ingredients into a mixing bowl, whisk, spoon into a baking tin and bake. And then, as is by magic, you will be rewarded with a delicious, soft coconut sponge cake. Yum!

Gluten free raspberry, lemon and yogurt tea loaf

written by Elizabeth Rimmer

I’ve a box full of recipe cuttings that I’ve collected over the years. It’s a real eclectic mix of recipes that have caught my eye whilst looking through magazines/newspapers and ones that have been quickly scribbled down on scraps of paper. It’s from deep within this culinary treasure trove that I came across this glorious recipe for a raspberry, lemon and yogurt tea loaf. And it’s an absolute cracker!

If you are reading this, I just want to say “thank you”. As if it wasn’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have given these delicious banana chocolate muffins a go. Whilst I have a long list of great recipes that I’d eventually like to share with you, I’m always on the hunt for new ones too. Because, although I’m a bit of a food traditionalist at heart, I want my blog to be filled with tempting things that appeal to everyone.

Gluten free scrunch

written by Elizabeth Rimmer

If you’ve never had the pleasure of tucking into a golden square of scrunch, you’ve been missing a real treat!

Scrunch is similar in texture to flapjack, with the same familiar flavours going on too. It’s deliciously crunchy, buttery, syrupy and EXTREMELY moreish (you’ve been warned).

Gluten free choux buns (filled with pastry cream)

written by Elizabeth Rimmer

I’m thrilled to be sharing this recipe for gluten free choux buns with you. As I know what a big deal it is when following a gluten free diet to still be able to enjoy scrumptious treats that pack the same punch as their gluten filled equivalents. And these gf choux buns certainly do just that.
