Soft Buckwheat Vanilla Pancakes
Today I am sharing my recipe for Soft Buckwheat Vanilla Pancakes, that are fluffy, moist and speckled with vanilla. This recipe uses buckwheat flour, baking powder, sugar, eggs, vanilla paste and coconut milk and is a gluten and dairy-free recipe. All props featured here are from my new shop – click to buy. What is Buckwheat? Buckwheat flour has a low GI and you can add a little of it to almost any recipe that calls for regular flour. It is gluten-free and a good source of calcium and protein. The flavour is rich and nutty and is darker in appearance than normal flour. Vanilla Paste I wanted to make these…

Blueberry and Chia Yoghurt Popsicles
These Blueberry and Chia Yoghurt Popsicles are the most refreshing way to celebrate spring and are made with seasonal blueberries, greek yoghurt, almond milk, chia and maple syrup.

Coconut Milk Vanilla Berry Panna Cotta
Here’s my recipe for a Coconut Milk Vanilla Berry Panna Cotta that’s dairy-free and refined sugar-free. This Coconut Milk Vanilla Berry Panna Cotta has a good jiggle – as panna cotta should.

Top Tips: I don’t recommend almond milk for this recipe, you need thicker milk – which is why I suggest coconut. Make sure to bloom your gelatine first before you warm up the coconut milk in the saucepan. The Berry Layer The berry compote layer is very simple – I cooked some strawberries, blueberries, sugar (or maple can be…
