*Thanks to OXO for sponsoring this post After a little trip to Ireland to help host a food photography workshop with Eva, I came back to my new flat and finally, after 3 weeks, christened the oven by baking this pie. Pies aren’t something…
Apricot Hazelnut Streusel Bars (+ Vegan Option)
Apricots are one of those fruits, like plums, that I never like to eat just on their own. I’d much rather cook them down into a jammy compote and use them like that, these apricot hazelnut streusel bars being the perfect example!…
Runner Bean Samosas with Pineapple Chutney
Thanks to Vitamix for sponsoring this post I’m back from my holidays and for once, the sun is actually shining in the UK. Most summers I’m away coincidentally at the time when England gets its WEEK of sunshine so by the time I’m back,…
Choux pastry is one of those things which is just hella delicious but I always forget about it as a fancy dessert option. The main times I’ve made it have been for large family gatherings and for my GCSE food tech project in…

Before I made this pie (and then ate a quarter of it during a revision break), I’d never actually eaten cherry pie before. I think this is down to two factors: I basically never bake with cherries (yo, £4.50 for a 400 g carton. I’d normally…
Yeah so it somehow happened again: I’ve made it into the finalists of Saveur’s Best Food Blog awards in the Desserts and Baking category!! I am JUST as stunned by this as I was last year (if not more). It’s such a huge deal…
