If the thought of oats brings to mind bland, stodgy porridge, then I highly recommend you try these Baked Oat Cups instead! They may look and taste like muffins but they're actually a pretty nutritious snack. Made with oats, yoghurt, eggs, and honey, they're perfect for adding to lunchboxes or enjoying as a breakfast on the go (we all have those hectic mornings where there is just no time for anything else!). Whether you go for the fruity, apple baked oats or slightly more indulgent peanut butter choc-chip version, they're incredibly quick and easy to make - just pop everything...

Muffins are a fabulous quick and easy bake, perfect for when that mid-week craving kicks in but the mid-week energy is flagging! Unlike cake and cupcake batters which generally require some heavy-duty creaming or beating, muffin batters must be mixed very gently to avoid the formation of "tunnels". This means you can whip up a batch of muffins in no time at all, and need little more than a bowl and spatula or wooden spoon!Using fresh strawberry pieces, as well as extra-fruity Lancewood Low Fat Strawberry Yoghurt in this batter results in a super-intense strawberry flavour. The addition of yoghurt...

If you’re in the mood to indulge this Easter, these Triple Chocolate Pull-apart Hot Cross Buns are just the ticket! Baked in a round cake tin to form the perfect pull-apart treat - simply place on your Easter table for everyone to help themselves and share.I’ve replaced the raisins with chocolate chunks (milk, dark AND white chocolate!), and also added some cocoa to the dough for some extra chocolate flavour. As if that wasn’t enough decadence, the crosses on top are made of white chocolate too! I added a bit of zesty candied citrus peel to balance out all that...

Around 3pm is when I normally hit that late afternoon slump and start craving a cuppa. Preferably with a little sweet treat of sorts! These blueberry streusel muffins are the ideal pick-me-up. They have everything a perfect blueberry muffin should have - a soft and tender crumb, loads of juicy blueberries and my favourite part - a delicious crunchy streusel topping. One could certainly give the topping a skip, but I feel that once you’ve tried it you simply won’t want to do without it! These muffins also freeze exceptionally well - I like to wrap them up individually before...

In celebration of National Doughnut Day, I wanted to make some filled doughnuts as it's something I haven't done before. (Side note: technically this is an American holiday, but I tend to get on board with foodie days because why not!)To help me decide on a filling, I asked my Instagram followers to vote between 4 options. The options were Biscoff, Nutella, Caramel/Peppermint Crisp or Vanilla custard. It was a very close race, but these classic vanilla custard doughnuts came out tops. I was secretly quite pleased as these were the ones I was hoping to make! I've often thought...

Sponsored.Apple crumble is one of my absolute favourite desserts. Especially in winter, when I love to eat it warm from the oven, with a generous side of custard! Even I can’t quite justify eating this on a daily basis though, so I had to find a way to get my apple crumble fix in another form.These Apple Crumble Muffins are packed with chunky fresh apple pieces and a subtle cinnamon flavour! They have a lovely soft texture, but the best part is that they’re topped with a sweet, buttery crumble made with Bakers® Good Morning Bran Rusks. That’s right, not only are these...

Doughnuts are right up there with my favourite treats in the whole world. Light and fluffy on the inside, crispy fried on the outside and then either filled with or covered in something sweet and decadent. What's always put me off making my own is the whole frying business. Being as clumsy as I am, the thought of litres of bubbling hot oil anywhere near me made me a little nervous. Until I discovered the wonder of this Russell Hobbs Digital deep fryer. Not only does it heat the oil in a matter of minutes, but it maintains the temperature of the...

Raisins are not really my thing. Hot Cross Buns however, are. A bit of a dilemma for me. My solution to this problem in the past has been to pick each and every raisin out of my hot cross bun before I can enjoy it.  A better solution of course is to make my own hot cross buns. I've been keen to do this for ages, and naturally thought of going the chocolate chip direction. Eventhough I'm not mad about raisins, I think Hot Cross Buns need some kind of fruit to compliment the spices. I was thrilled to discover dried sour...

I have many favourite sweet treats, but cinnamon buns are right up there. In the top 5 at least! Not much compares to sinking your teeth into a warm, soft, cinnamony bun, getting sticky icing all over your fingers (and face in my case - I don't hold back when it comes to cinnamon buns). Variety is the spice of life as they say, so I mixed things up a bit. I kept the delicious cinnamon and sugar filling, then added some buttery apple pieces and drenched the baked buns in a decadent salted caramel sauce. The result is these irresistable...

Bananas. As much as I like them, I always seem to have a few over-ripe ones lying in the fruit bowl. Why? Because the whole bunch ripens at exactly the same time and no matter how much you like banana's, five in one day is too many.  Since I hate wasting food, my solution is to transform them into a delicious batch of banana muffins. Not just any muffins though. These ones have a sweet and crunchy brown sugar crumble topping that transforms them from boring to blissful! These muffins are best served the day you make them, preferably warm from the oven with a generous smudge of...
