I usually just make half a batch of these oat and almond biscuits. A full plateful would be too tempting, but don't let me stop you.

October 29, 2012

I spent Friday at the Seasoned Cookery School on a 'Brilliant Bakes' course hosted by Brendan, finalist in 2012's Great British Bake Off. The day started off very well with a slab of Brendan's homemade granola slice and a cup of tea.

It's focaccia, but not as we know it.

Marshmallow Pavlova Cake

August 5, 2012

With each coffee choc chip spirals you get a hit of smooth coffee flavour, the toothsome bite of fresh baked dough plus a sweet sticky mess of icing that gets all over your fingers. Espresso Rolls : Perfect for elevenses.

May 8, 2012
