Not sure where this recipe came from as it’s hand written in a pad on my recipe book shelf. It is GF, DF, nut free and soya free but totally delicious! A friend recently brought us some Greek honey that MyItchyBoy wanted to try in a recipe so I dug this one out and it […]
Free from biscuits: wheat, dairy and egg free
In our house, we call these ‘Grandma biscuits’ as my Mum can’t remember where the recipe came from. As MyItchyBoy grew up my Mum wanted something easy to bake with and for him, so she adapted the recipe to dairy free and then discovered that they were still yummy made with gluten free flour too […]
Onion muffin recipe
This came out of a Twitter conversation this week. I have a great book called ‘Scones Muffins & Teatime Treats’* which has a good selection of sweet and savoury muffins. I have tried many of the recipes with dairy free butter, milk and egg replacer and found them to work well. So, here is the […]
