These are not your traditional cinnamon scrolls but more like a cross between walnut sticky buns, where the stickiness comes from maple syrup, and cinnamon scrolls. As I am trying to do most of my pastry and bread baking using sourdough starter , I applied this with this recipe as well. The recipe is very…

Vegan Macadamia Fudge
Realising there’s no way of winning there, I’ve stopped fighting my evening sweet-tooth cravings a while ago but I do still like to keep those after-dinner treats on the healthier side, without crazy amounts of sugar, especially with these snacking-prone times we find ourselves in (aka lock-downs and such). The Peanut Slice and the super…
Roasted Cauliflower and Beetroot “Salad”
Not sure if this one should be called a salad or just a tray of roasted veggies with a creamy tahini dressing and different toppings, but “a rose by any other name…” – regardless of what it actually is, it’s super delicious, and can easily be a stand-alone, clean meal, that is as tasty when…
Quick Oat and Quinoa Porridge
A warming breakfast with a hint of spice.
Vegan Dark Chocolate with Salt Flakes
This chocolate only takes approximately 5 minutes to make and requires only 5 ingredients. If you’re a fan of darker, less sweet chocolates, it will definitely hit that chocolate craving spot, while still being very clean, ingredients wise. It’s super low in sugar content too, a little splash of maple syrup is all you’ll need….
Almond and Cranberry Biscotti

Italy, with all its goodness, is definitely one of them, and being able to finish a meal with some crunchy almond biscotti… These biscuits are so comforting…
Sourdough Hot Cross Buns
A wholesome version of an Easter classic.
Vegan Banana Bread
This recipe ticks many boxes for a sweet and indulgent yet quite healthy and wholesome breakfast. It is vegan but you can easily substitute some vegan ingredients for their non-vegan equivalents if you do wish so. Even though it is made mainly from ingredients considered healthy and contains very little sugar and added oil it…
Water Kefir
People mostly know kefir as the probiotic milky drink, but there is actually another type of kefir grains that are fed by any type of sweetened water, producing a drink similar to kombucha. I personally much prefer the water kefir drink, as it does not feed your candida, which consumption of kombucha may, kefir also…
Smoked Beetroot Salad
One of my favourite Autumn salads, inspired by Ottolenghi.
Pickled Red Onions
Pickled and lacto-fermented veggies are such a simple way to add some freshness and a little tangy kick to pretty much any dish. For the last year my fridge has had pretty much a whole shelf dedicated to jars of various veggies, some preserved by pickling and some by natural fermentation. I’ll leave the fermentation…
