Spiced, warming carrot cake flapjacks with no refined sugar & lots of healthy fiber & fats from oats, rye, flaxseeds and fruit/veg. I purposely lowered the amount of fat from oil that standard recipes use but they still came out great with a slightly crisp texture! I also made these dairy free by using coconut oil instead of butter which works really well with the carrot cake flavours. Perfect for winter time when carrots are so easy to get & the spices are lovely on cold mornings, plus they’re portable too for an on the go healthier snack!

I love a berry and peanut butter combo so this was bound to happen eventually. The addition of the slightly tart berries with the creamy peanut butter is lovely and makes for a healthier cookie. PLUS this is a great way to use up that hard bit of natural PB that you find at the bottom of the jar or tub that most people don’t know what to do with, I simply use a small food processor to blend it into the other wet ingredients so that it doesn’t go to waste. Use this to make this–> Recipe (makes 6-8 depending on size) -35g butter or coconut oil, room temp -35g peanut butter -40g coconut sug ..read more

Didn’t quite know what exactly to call these as when I first made them I wanted them to taste like a carrot cake flavour but somehow they just ended up like banana bread, which was really yummy especially warm from the oven. Then the next time I made them I added lots of ginger and coconut and they tasted like carrot cake but the banana still came through so I decided to mash the two together because otherwise I just can’t decide which one it is lol!! These are great for quick breakfasts once you make them as you’re sorted for a few days or they even make good post workout snacks if you go fo ..read more

This is my selection of snacks that aren’t filled with chicory inulin as some people can’t tolerate lots of prebiotics without symptoms and it seems like it’s in everything these days! Every protein bar i pick up seems to have a tonne of chicory in it which means anyone sensitive to this ingredient cant eat an entire bar and so will need to find a different option. Here’s a rundown of the ones I like and use regularly. Boostballs: These contain natural ingredients for sweetness and protein so don’t contain refined sugar and the keto version is good too, they do have some acacia gum fiber but i ..read more

Oaty, coconut dark choc chip bars or blondies, whichever way you want to think of them, they’re lovely and go perfectly with a nice cup of tea.

I wanted to use oats in this recipe for an easy way of using a wholemeal flour which provides your gut with more fiber but also because it’s easy to find and can be gluten free if needed whereas ..read more

These hot cross scones are filled with flavours of hot cross buns like orange, fruit, spices etc and can be low sugar/ refined sugar free (if you choose RSF choc) plus use higher fiber, more nutritious ingredients. They can be made dairy free/vegan friendly with simple adjustments too, so no need for anyone to miss out. They also use a bit of dried fruit so have some goodness in there for the kids and are a good, easy baking option for them to help out with in the kitchen to keep them busy for a few minute! These are best served warm but as you need to add the choc crosses they’ll need to be c ..read more

Super healthy, easy, spiced pumpkin muffins using oats as the bulk of the recipe meaning it’s like breakfast in muffin form, plus the added spices are all anti-inflammatory and give flavour without more sugar. I’ve also added in some plant protein to balance out the carbs and improve satiety. Fun pumpkin breakfast muffins or a stealth, health snack. You can adjust them for a more indulgent snack with addition of dark choc & increasing the sweetness by 1 tablespoon or use for a breakfast option as they go really well with some nut butter, so once you have a batch cooked it’ll last you a fe ..read more

Try saying that name 3 times fast! A great combo of high fiber ingredients plus quality protein and a seasonal dose of pumpkin as well as warming spices! I highly recommend using the spice mix (linked below) as this ingredient really takes it to the next level. This is great for on the go or when you need a quick breakfast the next morning because it’s pretty much made the night before meaning less time taken up the next day. It’s also a great way to use up that seasonal pumpkin you may have hanging around after your pumpkin carving is finished. Pumpkin protein oats (serves 1) -35g oats -18g ..read more
