Coffee choc beetroot cake with cashew coffee icing
I’m in love with the combination of chocolate, coffee and beetroot, its such an unexpected trio, but when mixed together in a cake, produces a beautiful, sweet and healthy result! This recipe is in collaboration with Yahava Koffeeworks, and is made with their Kintamani coffee. I pre-cooked the beetroot, so have not included that in the prep time (I normally keep a few bags of par-cooked beetroot in the freezer for such occasions!).

Raw cookie dough bites
This recipe is a simple, quick and tasty one, which was inspired by my good friend Tam when we were talking about the “Raw cakes” I posted on instagram a few days ago. It inspired me to create something that was reminiscent of eating raw cake batter or nibbling on some of the raw cookie dough. Therefore: Raw cookie dough bits! Literally 5 ingredients and they take 5 minutes.

Gluten free choc chip oat cookies
Its been a terribly long time since i’ve had a warm, freshly baked cookie out of the oven, so I decided to come up with a low GI, gluten free, healthy cookie.

They make a perfect treat for kids going back to school this week, and an even more perfect weekend baking recipe. Please be aware some oats are processed in facilities where gluten based products are also produced, so make sure your get certified gluten free…
