Last week I did a juice cleanse -- three days of low-fruit veggie juices, three days of no solid food, three days of realising how much I actually enjoy the act of eating and subsequently miss it. I'll share more about it one day but this post is not about that cleanse... It's about the homemade granola bars I made on the second day of said cleanse and photographed on the third day -- in between launching a website for a client and packing for 5 days in Adelaide -- without taking a single, … [Read more...]
Hot Cross Bun French Toast & Mixed Fruit Compote
The sentiment of this recipe (and for that matter this post) hovers between "why not?" and "well of course I did, are you really surprised?". Hot Cross Buns -- with all their soft and fluffy filled with spice and love glory -- are best on the day, or day after, they are pulled from the oven. Not that they taste any less brilliant beyond that point, but like any homemade bread they need something to refresh them slightly. Toasting and smearing with curd or butter certainly … [Read more...]
Sticky Date & Chai Hot Cross Buns
It's been a bit busy on the work front, and subsequently a bit quiet around here lately, but I couldn't let Easter pass without yet another Hot Cross Bun recipe. Spiked with chai tea and plenty of spices, the dates are kneaded into the dough creating swirls throughout the soft, just-sweet buns. Simple and a bit moody (the day, the buns and the styling), they gave me the perfect excuse to pull out my new crafty, DIY tiled background. Half of these went to work with RJ, the other half … [Read more...]
Honey Wholewheat English Muffin Bread {DF, Vg}
Well kids, it seems I'm still out of words -- sort of. I can of course talk your ear off over tea or cocktails, and there are a thousand travel stories running through my head that are trying to formulate themselves into something digestible, but somehow I'm struggling to come up with any incidental tidbits that can be remotely linked to English Muffin Bread. Of course as I type that my bunny-hopping mind has just spun into the following stream of consciousness tangent ... English … [Read more...]
Vegan Creamy Mushroom & Kale Soup
Another one to work my way through the archives. Made and shot in July last year to go with the Gluten Free Quinoa Cornbread, then promptly filed away -- until now. It is after all getting cooler again in Sydney and that can mean only one thing, soup season has arrived. I did originally have this post titled Magical Mushroom Soup -- now wouldn't that be a tease of a thing to do? Of course it is the soup that is magical rather than magical mushrooms (ahem) being used for soup. Apologies to … [Read more...]
Vanilla Amaranth Crumb Crust – Gluten-Free & Vegan
A quick post for a quick crust. One that is crumbly without crumbling biscuits. Buttery without any butter. Pressed with no pressure (too far? probably) and so fragrant and more-ish you'll want to use it for every pie you make ever again (I do love a bold assumption). As a side note this crust was photographed a couple hours before the fully assembled pie -- smack-bang in the middle of a make-the-morning-dark-as-night thunderstorm. The pics have been adjusted within an inch of … [Read more...]
Vegan Key Lime Pie (Nut-Free, Paleo & Raw too)
Hello there. In a fit of late-night brain-freeze I'm vignetting this, barely editing, and going to bed. Better buckle up. ------ On tenuous links... I'm hosting Sweet Adventures Blog Hop this month and with the hop starting on 17 March I simply had to make the theme St. Paddy's Day related. However, other than the festive green colour of this pie, any relation to the holiday, country of origin, or leprechauns at the end of rainbows are tenuous at best (and quite possibly … [Read more...]
