Tiramisu Overnight Oats

Tiramisu Overnight Oats

This tiramisu overnight oats tastes like a decadent dessert but functions as a nourishing, power-packed breakfast rich in protein, fibre, and antioxidants. It’s the ultimate prep-ahead meal that can easily be adjusted to your likes and dietary preferences. Why I love making this tiramisu overnight oats: I'm a huge coffee fan - I absolutely love the taste of coffee and the aroma it fills the kitchen with. It's one of my favourite scents (think the smell you're hit with when you walk into a cafe). However, coffee doesn't love me back. It leaves me feeling jittery, on edge and heightens my anxiety. It gives me nervous energy instead of making me feeling awake and alert. That won't stop me from [...]

Nut Free Granola

Nut Free Granola

Finding a supermarket nut-free granola that balances wholesome nutrition with an irresistible, toasted crunch can feel like a daunting task in a world of sugary cereals. This specific nut-free blend relies on the natural, caramel-like richness of Medjool dates and the aromatic warmth of cardamom to deliver a premium breakfast experience. By focusing on mineral-dense seeds and fibre-rich oats, you can create a versatile pantry staple that powers your morning without the need for common allergens. Granola is a pantry staple, but I think that finding the "perfect" version in the supermarket is surprisingly difficult. Most commercial granola is either packed with refined sugars and preservatives, or frustratingly for those with allergies, a lot of granola brands are completely off-limits due [...]

Vegan Flapjack Recipe

Vegan Flapjack Recipe

This vegan flapjack recipe makes a great grab-and-go breakfast on busy mornings, a nourishing mid-afternoon snack or a healthier sweet treat after meals. Each serving offers 11g protein with no protein powder in sight as well as 6g fibre and 7 plant points. Not only are they good for you, they're tasty too and can be easily adjusted to what you have on hand. Why I love making these no bake flapjacks. The beauty of the "no-bake" method lies in its simplicity and the preservation of nutrients. Traditional flapjacks are often toasted at high temperatures, which can sometimes diminish the delicate oils in seeds and nuts. By keeping things cool, you maintain the integrity of every ingredient while achieving a softer [...]

Cottage Cheese Bread Recipe

Cottage Cheese Bread Recipe

This cottage cheese bread recipe is a total game-changer for anyone wanting a change from the overly processed supermarket loaves. By swapping refined flour for protein-packed dairy and hearty oats, you get a dense, nutrient-rich slice that fuels your day without the typical carb crash. Bonus point - it's also really easy to make with no proofing required! Why cottage cheese is the secret to your new favourite loaf: For a long time, the world of homemade bread was divided into two daunting camps. On one side, you had the artisan sourdough bakers—the ones with bubbling starters named "Dough-lene" and a schedule dictated by hydration levels and 12-hour fermentations. On the other, you had the quick-bread traditionalists, often relying on [...]
