I love creating new seasonal recipes and this year I’ve been making so many pumpkin flavoured bakes that our home has been full of the scents of the season. Our latest bake was Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Brownies and I thought I’d add it to our bank of pumpkin recipes along with Pumpkin Pie and our …
I love seasonal baking and over the last couple of years I’ve really enjoyed baking different recipes with pumpkin – something I’d never really used until I decided to make a Pumpkin Pie one day. The whole family really enjoyed it and we’ve been cooking pumpkin recipes ever since.
Brownies are pretty much a staple bake for any kitchen. They are so easy to make, taste great and I’ve never met anyone that doesn’t appreciate a brownie still warm from the oven.
A few years ago I published my Never Fail Cookies recipe and it’s been the basis of so many cookie recipes over the years.

A Bakewell Tart is such a classic traditional British recipe that I thought I’d try baking with a festive twist using Christmas jam instead of traditional raspberry jam for a lovely festive twist with this Festive Bakewell Tart. I thought this would be a great alternative to mince pies but if you’d rather, you can …
Ever since the start of the year, when I made my 2014 Bucket List, I have wanted to make pumpkin pie. It is one of those recipes that I’ve always wanted to make but never had an opportunity to – I don’t ‘do’ Halloween really so have never carved a pumpkin (something else I need …
