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 simply adore whipping these ineffably light and perfectly crunchy nuggets, and I find that they are so versatile they can be paired with most ingredients.

Rustici di sfoglia, AKA puff pastry bombs!
Puff pastry is by far one of those kitchen staples I always stock in my freezer. I have attempted making it myself at times and, although I did love the end result, I wasn’t a huge fan of the labour involved. All that folding, rolling, naps in the fridge, turning clock wise business, really isn’t…
