I was inspired to make these squares as I had a jar of delicious hazelnut butter in the cupboard and thought it would be a nice change from peanut butter in baking. It looks like a lot of ingredients but it comes together quickly and the results are delicious. Don’t be tempted to bake them until they are really browned – they will be too crumbly that way. Enjoy these for breakfast, a energy boost snack or for dessert.

Making your own plant-based milk with cashews is so easy. The cashews are soft and blend smoothly so there is no need to have to strain the pulp out as you have to do with other nut milks. Cashews are rich in fiber, iron, high in magnesium and the unsaturated fat in cashews is predominantly a healthy oleic acid (the same as in olive oil). Plain cashew milk is delicious to use in coffee or tea, over cereal, in baking, or to drink on its own. Adding cocoa makes chocolate cashew milk which is heavenly!

This recipe for fast and appetizing baking powder bagels uses either wheat or gluten free flour and has 5 simple ingredients – 6 if you add sesame seeds sprinkled on top before baking. My recipe uses dairy-based Greek yogurt which is higher in protein than regular yogurt, is a good source of calcium, vitamin B2 and B12, selenium as well as vitamin A, zinc and potassium. Plain Greek yogurt is low in carbs and has little sugar. The flavoured varieties have more sugar so eat those in moderation. These heavenly rings are delicious hot from the oven or next day plain or toasted. So. Very. Good.
