Windowpane Christmas Cookies

Cookie season is officially open! We kicked off the festive month with these gummy bear window pane cookies! Impressive to look, super easy to make. If you put a little hole through the cut shape before baking, then you can thread them and showcase them as edible ornaments. My advise when baking these with children……

Vegan Lime and Blueberry Loaf

This sweet little lime and blueberry loaf is Vegan. And has no added fat. It shouldn’t work, but it does and it’s fluffy, soft and “”citrusingly” delicious! My children and husband could not believe it when I told them how very few ingredients went into this batter and they particularly loved the zingy lime flavour…

Autum Harvest Grape Focaccia (vegan!)

Autumn harvest grape focaccia! Its just what this rainy and dump autumnal Sydney day needs. This delicious dough is super easy to make thanks to the no-knead method. The only catch being that it needs a longer proving time for the dough to develop nicely. However, if the craving is too great, up the yeast quantity…

Raspberry Jam Mini Meringues

This is not the first time I share a meringue recipe, nor it will be the last.

I like to scent mine with lemon and vanilla, and drizzle over generous lashings of melted white chocolate, for that extra opulence this season commands, However you can customize this recipe to your liking and…

Vegan “Rudolph” Cupcakes

With Christmas fast approaching I feel I have burrowed myself deep in a rabbit hole of baking! Not that I mind that, let’s be clear here, baking is my happy place. And my actual domestic bunny Hazel loves to steal the fruits of my labour! There goes that metaphor! If you are planning some seasonal…

Lemon and Yoghurt Dunking Biscuits from “Love, Laugh, Bake!”

Nothing fills me with more joy than sharing my love for baking with my children. It’s both the ritual of creating an edible moment together, and the anticipation and excitement waiting for our labour to come into fruition. I am not a very patient baker, let’s be honest, and, with the exception of slow proving…

Easy-ish, almost no-knead Panettone

Almost. Yes, there will be some kneading, but take it from someone who is known for Panettone recipes that will give your upper body an intense workout, this is quite the revolution! Panettone is a traditional Italian Christmas enriched bread, and creating this type of dough, negotiating with eggs, sugar and fats, is never an…
