These blueberry muffins are light and delicious and simple to make. This is hands down the best muffin recipe I have ever tried and guaranteed to please the crowd. Get your kids in the kitchen to help out with this one. It is simple to make and only uses a few ingredients. The key to getting these babies light is all in the rubbing of the butter into the flour. I have adapted this recipe slightly. Miss A declared these Blue-BERRY-licious! Go on, try them. I like these babies big but you can make mini ones too….

Lemon Coconut Slice

February 4, 2014 By Michaela Fox

Show me a person who doesn’t love lemon coconut slice and I’ll show you a lier. It has to be hands down one of the yummiest slices and it’s so simple to make. Everyone has their own version (which don’t really vary much) and this one is mine. I can’t remember the original source of this recipe but I like my lemon slice really lemony and the icing has to be not too thick but not too thin either. Adapt to your personal taste. I also think the quality of the biscuits enhances the flavour. Try this one – it’s light, lemony and luscious!…

Christmas Rocky Road

Who doesn’t love Rocky Road?! It’s a classic and impossible to stop at one piece. Everyone has their own version of Rocky Road and this is mine. The green M&Ms and raspberries give it festive colours and the addition of crunchie gives it…well…crunch! I made a massive batch of this to give away as gifts for friends and kinder/childcare staff. It is a winner!

The recipe below is for a kid-friendly version and so I’ve omitted nuts.

Easy Muesli Cookies

Easy and Yummy Muesli Cookies

I fell into a bad habit of buying kids’ muesli bar snacks from the supermarket. Not only are they loaded in sugar but they are expensive, and my kids eat them in about two seconds. These muesli cookies, however, are chewy in texture and take a lot longer to eat. I use the Lowan Muesli that I have for my breakfast, add a few other ingredients and voila – a healthier (and cheaper) alternative to purchasing kids’ snack bars. You can adapt this recipe to taste. As always, a few little chocolate chips makes them a bit more special!…

Yummy banana cake

July 14, 2013 By Michaela Fox

In my mind, if a cake has fruit in it, then it’s qualifies as healthy. My kids don’t really eat bananas but they eat cake, so I am calling this a victory. There are 4 big bananas in this baby and it has a little sugar and a few choc chips for extra taste! Everyone loves a banana cake, and this is a dead easy recipe….

Flourless orange and almond cake

Delicious Flourless Orange Cake

This flourless orange and almond cake is simple to make and incredibly light, moist and delicious. It’s my “go to” cake when I want a break from chocolate (which is rare) and is the perfect finish to any meal or for morning tea. Whilst its very easy, it’s quite time consuming so you will need to set aside a couple of hours. The key to getting this cake just right is all in the timing. As soon as the edges are going golden, that’s the time to take this cake out.
