Miso and Maple Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream
Pumpkin pie ice cream has never tasted so good and so umami. The subtle flavour of miso is balanced by the sweetness of the maple syrup and thanks to the smooth, creaminess of the tofu, you’d never know that it’s dairy free.
Norwegian Waffles (Vafler)
Waffles are an essential Norwegian tradition. Not a week goes by in a Norwegian home without a waffle being eaten. Unlike the Belgium waffles, Norwegian waffles are large, soft and fluffy and fit perfectly folded in your hand.
Pumpkin and Raisin Loaf
Big Halloween pumpkins are always impressive and if you have the flesh from one of these, we recommend using it in this pumpkin and raisin loaf.
Iced Carrot Cake
A fool proof carrot cake recipe that has the flexibility to use up wonky carrots and dried fruit and nuts available in your store cupboard.
Funfetti Tray Bake
Some kids love school, some don’t. But we haven’t met one yet that doesn’t love school sprinkle cake. Try our simple plant based version at home for all of the flavour, but less of the GHGs from animal products.
Chocolate and Hazelnut Spread
This spread is so chocolatey and yummy. It can make a lovely present idea! Good news is, you can make a present to yourself as well…
Ginger Biscuits
Delicious spicy ginger biscuits, why buy them when you can make them better yourself?
Eastern Mess
This quick pudding can be whipped up in no time, perfect for when you have a sudden dessert craving. A slight twist on the traditional Eton Mess. Yoghurt is one of the most wasted foods as people don’t always use it before it spoils.
Tom’s Chocolate Truffles
These simple chocolate truffles are a great way to save and transform aged chocolate that has become discoloured, into a truly remarkable sweet treat. It is the simplest, yet tastiest truffle, made with just three ingredients, chocolate, salt and water.
Designed to bring out and maximise the flavour of the chocolate so that you can taste its true, intense flavour, that is individual to each and every chocolate bar.
Basil and Lemon Sorbet
A zingy and aromatic basil and lemon sorbet which is great to serve with fresh strawberries.
Peanut Butter and Pumpkin Biscuits
Crispy and chewy, these biscuits are a great way to use up any bits of pumpkin that might go to waste. And they make a perfect Halloween baking activity too!
