Vegan & Gluten-free Florentines

These vegan & gluten-free florentines are the perfect cookie to enjoy during the festive period. Packed with nuts, cranberries and a hint of orange with a layer of dark chocolate to intensify the flavour! I've always loved florentines - they have the most beautiful crunch and a complex flavour from the nuts, spices and chocolate. I didn't realise how easy they were to make at home until I started to experiment with my own recipe. They would make a beautiful and thoughtful edible gift for your loved ones. All you have to do to make these vegan & gluten-free florentines is to add everything to a pan (apart from the chocolate), heat to combine, shape into cookies and bake! There [...]

Walnut Cranberry & White Chocolate Biscotti

Nothing beats a crunchy biscotti with a cup of tea. These Walnut cranberry & white chocolate biscotti make a lovely lighter treat to enjoy during the festive period. *This post is sponsored by California Walnuts* For me, biscuits and cookies are the king of desserts. I would happily never eat any other dessert for the rest of my life as long as I have access to crunchy biscuits - and they don’t come crunchier than biscotti! I’m teaming up with California Walnuts to bring you an easy & fun festive walnut recipe to help you get Christmas, Cracked. I wanted to put a bit of a fun spin on the traditional biscotti, and make a walnut version to show how [...]

Gingerbread Ganache Cookies (Vegan & Gluten-free)

A smooth chocolate ganache sandwiched in between 2 crunchy gingerbread biscuits. These gingerbread ganache cookies make a yummy festive treat that also happen to be vegan, gluten-free AND nut-free! *This post is sponsored by FREEE* This is my favourite gingerbread cookie/biscuit recipe, but instead of icing it like you typically would do with gingerbread biscuits, I’ve created a cookie sandwich with a smooth and velvety ganache in the middle. So yummy and moreish! Biscuits have always (and I imagine they always will be) my favourite treat! I would always pick a good biscuit over a slice of cake or a brownie. I just love that crunch you get with a freshly baked biscuit. This Christmas I wanted to create a [...]

Nutty Vegan Chocolate Digestives

Nutty vegan chocolate digestives made at home with easy to find ingredients. They can also easily be made gluten-free! A homemade vegan digestive biscuit topped with a layer of chocolatey toasted almonds! These are essentially pimped up digestives. So if you're a fan of chocolate digestives, you definitely need to give these a try! Dark chocolate Digestives are my go to biscuit and I often make my own at home because they’re so easy to make and I think everything tastes better when it’s homemade. So I decided to make a fancier version with toasted flaked almonds in the chocolate topping. The almond chocolate layer really makes them feel so decadent - like the biscuits you would spend a lot [...]

Oat Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies

These oat flour chocolate chip cookies are my take on the classic treat, but made with oats instead of plain flour. I love making healthier desserts, but every now and then I also like to make something a little more indulgent. Let’s be realistic here, some days you just need something comforting to satisfy your taste buds and your soul. We all know that something as simple as a cookie can help lift us up when we’re having a bad day.   Oats are one of my favourite ingredients to use in my desserts. It also works really great in baking and it’s an easy way to get extra fibre into the diet, which is a bonus. [...]

Vegan Gluten-free Butter Cookies

Light, buttery and crumbly cookies dipped in chocolate and decorated with chopped hazelnuts. These vegan gluten-free butter cookies are a must-try! I made these vegan gluten-free butter cookies for Christmas and dipped them in matcha white chocolate and chopped pistachios. I just had to make a dark chocolate version, this time decorated with chopped hazelnuts. I think we can all agree that chocolate + hazelnuts is one of the most delicious flavour combos ever. These cookies are definitely a lot more indulgent than my usual treats. With butter cookies, you really do need to use a lot of butter (hence the name!), and sugar too, so they're not healthy in any shape or form. However, they are gluten-free and vegan, [...]

I've always thought of chocolate and peanut butter as such a winning combo, but what makes these cookies special is that they're made using healthier ingredients! They're also no-bake and you don't need any fancy equipment to make them. I use oats in a lot of my baking and treats. They've become a staple in my kitchen and for good reason. They're an amazing source of fibre, vitamins and minerals as well as antioxidants. Including them in the diet is linked to [...]

No-bake recipes are my favourite kind of recipes. They're so much quicker to make and a lot easier to master and get right. These no-bake chocolate oat cookies are a great example of that.
