Caramel Apple Crumble

Brown Butter Banana Muffins

Sometimes The Captain wonders why I must always have a bunch of bananas in a small wicker basket on the table: uneaten and always left to ripen. It’s simple. Banana desserts are my absolute fav...

Irish Treacle Soda Bread

There is an unspoken rule in our household. The Captain does the bread and I do the pastries and cakes. I know how incredible the home made stuff is and even though I adore the aroma of fresh bread (...

Coconut Pancakes with Grilled Bananas and Salted Caramel Rum Sauce

Ok so these are more like pikelets than pancakes but pfft, same thing right? Quite honestly, I prefer my pancakes in wee-little sized blobs rather than large flapjacks or crepes. It’s a love th...

Pulled Beef and Beer Pie

Let me be frank here. There’s a reason why I’ve blown up a dress size, lost my waist and developed a more, well, rotund belly in these past years. I. Love. Meat pies. Just thinking of a m...

Pork, Thyme and Caramelised Apple Sausage Rolls

Chocolate and Espresso Coffee Fondants

Forget fancy, this dessert is just pure comfort, like a shoulder to cry on when a foul mood takes over. Plus it makes for killer food porn, what’s not to love? But the main reason why I adore c...

Almond Frangipane Tart with Vanilla and Honey Glazed Nectarines

Confession. I’ve made this tart 4 times in the last 10 days. I love it that much. You see, while I knew exactly what I wanted to cook for Christmas dinner, I came up blank when I was planning d...

Christmas Roast Duck with Port and Cherry Sauce and Fried Brussel Sprouts

Spaghetti with Cauliflower and Speck

Summer Linguine with Lemon, Feta and Parmesan
