It’s that time of year again; Shrove Tuesday, hot on the heels of Valentine’s Day and the Lunar New Year. Of course, what we all need is more celebratory food. Filled with copious amounts of cream, ideally. Well, Swedish cream buns – or semlor – are here to cater to your sweet-toothed whims. This recipe…

2-MINUTE PEACH PIE MUGCAKE- egg-, dairy- and refined sugar-free
A delicious, simple, summery mugcake for one, that makes a perfect lazy afternoon tea treat or dessert in a flash. Try serving it dressed up with a scoop of oat ice-cream or a dollop of coconut yogurt. It’s delicately spiced, moist, peachy fragrant and fruity… and it takes just a couple of minutes to make!…
APPLE & CHOCOLATE BREAKFAST MUFFINS – vegan, refined sugar-free, gluten-free option
Many people tell me that they are here for my recipes; some because they want to eat plant-based, some because they have an intolerance or allergy or want to cut back on this or that, for health benefits or to try something new. Some are here for inspiration and some because it is a family…

By popular request, I am sharing this luscious, super-easy, light-enough-for-breakfast cake recipe (in both Swedish and English) here, as it appeared on my Instagram stories the other day for a 24-hour period only.

EASTER EGG DOUGHNUT NESTS- easy vegan, gluten-free decorated chocolate cake doughnuts
Before this Easter weekend officially draws to a close, I want to share the recipe for our homemade Easter treat this year.

24 DAYS OF HAPPY, HEALTHY CELEBRATION (cut the stress, get organised & eat deliciously balanced this Christmas)
As I count down to my first Christmas as a mother of 3 in a brand new home that’s barely 1/3 in order, I am simultaneously overjoyed at how blessed I am and, frankly, a little overwhelmed by the sheer enormity of keeping 3 little ones (and myself) in festive mode throughout the month of December….
CINNAMON & WALNUT BUNS (a vegan, refined sugar-free take on the Swedish Classic)
And I am back with another belated recipe share! This time it’s the Swedish fika favourite: cinnamon buns. But these are not made of the same buttery dough as the original, more commonly known kind. In fact, they are dairy-free. And if that’s not enough of a departure from the classic variety, these ones are also refined sugar-free….
