Hot cross bun cookies
Hot Cross Bun Cookies, because, and you should know this by now, I love making cookies. These cookies capture the essence of hot cross buns with their warm spices and fruity sweetness, perfect for sharing during the Easter season.

Tuna stewed rice
This recipe is the ever popular “go to” when you don’t know what to make, and there are only staple ingredients in the cupboards as you haven’t had time to go food shopping. It’s an easy recipe to follow, and if you bake the rice as opposed to stewing it on the hob, it becomes foolproof. […]

These delightful little morsels graced our afternoon tea table on numerous occasions. They are the perfect size to be eaten in two bites (sometimes even one), can be packed and carried rather easily as they are quite hardy, and taste great.

Challah Bread
This is a delicious bread to make, and definitely a showstopper on your table. My version is a six strand braid but a real easy one to do, I swear, all you have to do is braid consistently and take it nice and slow. You can not go wrong. As for the taste of this […]
Creamy Apple tart
This is another simple but delicious recipe. Easy to make -foolproof I would say- creamy and delicious.

You can have them in Apple Pies, Tarts, crumbles, even in Jams and of course […]
