Gluten Free Custard Pie

Custard Pie! You asked, I listened! A lot of people have been asking me for a Galaktoboureko (γαλακτομπούρεκο) recipe, which is a Greek dessert consisting of semolina custard in filo. Now unfortunately I cannot make anything with filo, as it is not gluten free and trying to get the same consistency of filo using gluten free ingredients is incredibly difficult. So this is my version of a custard pie. It is not too sweet, and not as heavy as a traditional Galaktoboureko.

Courgette and Asparagus Quiche

Eat your greens! They are good for you! I always try and use greens in my cooking as much as I can. Asparagus is packed with vitamins and minerals as well as iron, calcium, protein and fibre. Courgettes are low calorie and contain no saturated fats or cholesterol and have many benefits including improving digestion.

Time for tea and Victoria Sponge Cake

Is it time for tea? Oh I do love a Victoria sponge cake. One of my very first cakes that I made when I was first diagnosed with coeliac disease was a Victoria sponge. Some people just add jam to their Victoria sponge cake, but I use jam and cream. I also brought out the mad hatter teapot because I couldn’t enjoy my tea and cake without him!

Chocolate Goo Cake

Vegan, gluten free, wheat free, nut free and delicious!
I made the very popular chocolate goo cake this week, which is just scrumptious with strawberries!

Carrot Cake in a Microwave

I have never made a cake in a microwave before and was intrigued by how my carrot cake in a microwave would turn out! This carrot cake was very moist and incredibly delicious! I was a little unsure about making a cake this way, but I think it turned out pretty well!

Chocolate and Raspberry Roulade

One simply cannot have a summer without a raspberry roulade! The taste of the soft chocolate sponge with the whipped cream and oozing with raspberries is simply divine!
