While I try and eat pretty healthy most of the time, sometimes I just need to whip up a baked good to have with a cup of tea, or to take to work to stave away the mid-afternoon energy slump. That was the impetus behind this cranberry, almond & choc chip slice and I was certainly happy with how it turned out! I think I’ll be making this one again soon!
Berry season is one of my favourite times of the year and when I saw strawberries for 99 cents a punnet at my local fruit & vege shop I knew I needed to pick up a few quick smart – some for eating, some for smoothies and some for these strawberry oat muffins!
I’d seen a few recipes for almond butter cookies floating around the internet and was rather intrigued about these flourless concoctions. I decided to have a play with the jar of almond butter sitting in my pantry and see what combo worked out best, and these were the definite winners.
Welcome to the new look I Spy Plum Pie! I decided it was time to change things up a bit so after a bit of a play on the weekend, here we have it! It was mainly B’s handy work, with me sitting to the side picking colours and asking a whole heap of questions, and in the end we have gone for what I think is a more streamlined, simple layout. I’m still playing with some of the features, but so far I’m liking it! I’d love to hear your thoughts too!
Since participating in the Sweet Adventures Blog Hop by making white chocolate and macadamia cookies I have been thinking about cookies a lot, so had to make some more! These are a little more on the healthy side but are still deliciously moreish and are perfect with a mid-morning cup of tea. If you don’t have (or like) cranberries you could use sultanas or apricot instead, but I personally think the cranberries work extra well with the dark chocolate.
