We recently had a fundraising afternoon tea at work for a colleague who was taking on the challenge of riding over 1000km in a week for ovarian cancer research so I thought I better get my bake on! I used to take cupcakes into work all the time but hadn’t done so in a long time, so thought I would rectify that with these lemon coconut cupcakes.
With the warmer weather upon us it was time to mix up my breakfast options and this coconut chia pudding has become a fast favourite. Not only is it super delicious but because you do most of the work the night before it makes an excellent option when you’re short for time. It’s cheap, easy and heathy as well – how can you beat that?!
The last couple of months have been incredibly busy ones for me at work as we’ve been running some rather extensive community consultation (involving lots of Saturday and evening work) but that is all now over, so we celebrated with an afternoon tea! I always like to bake something to take along but wanted to keep things simple (I had been working half the weekend after all!) so a classic coconut jam slice seemed the perfect choice!
This is one of the times I wish we had improved technology to the point that you could share scents through the computer because this orange pecan granola smells amazing! I’ve been having a regular sourdough-avocado-eggs breakfast for a little while now but with the return of sunny, warmer weather I decided it was time to have something a bit lighter and homemade granola was just the ticket!
Ah coconut oil, the wonderkid of the health and wellness sphere for the last few years! With good reason I might add, it really is an incredibly versatile and useful product! I keep a jar of coconut oil in my kitchen and another in my bathroom, so today I thought I would share with you my top 10 uses for coconut oil. As always, I’d love to hear your favourite uses for it too!
