All in Snacks
These new raw healthy bliss balls are so so refreshing. The lemon coconut classic combo gets a new life with that hint of turmeric. They are nutrient dense and feel like a fab treat. They are also pretty, do not need baking and set in the fridge quickly, so what's not to like!
There is absolutely a place for cookies in our lives! Even those like me who tend to go for savoury before sweet when hungry, there is something about those cookies that is just so delicious. Super quick to put together and with a better protein content than most shop bough cookies! What’s not to like?
These raw healthy snacks were inspired by the arrival of all the gorgeous summer fruits. Raw, nut-free, vegan, naturally gluten free, light and fresh they are the perfect pick-me up, on-the-go refuel for the longer days, late outdoors training session or delayed never-ending cricket matches! They are pretty, do not need baking and set in the freezer quickly, so what's not to like!
This is the perfect no-bake fruit and oats snack bar. Full of natural goodness, no nasties, sugar only from the fruits and added benefits of pumpkin seeds. Make ahead in 15mins, sets in the fridge in an hour and keeps really well. Ideal for lunch box in nut free school environment. These are gluten free and really simple with a lovely citrus kick of orange perfect for breakfast on-the-go!
Dark chocolate, nut butter and medjool dates! 3 wholesome simple ingredients only and this fudge is unreal! Of course it is high in sugar (the dates) and calorie dense (nut butter) but if you’re going to treat yourself, do it with real food ingredients you know and recognise!
My tip? Cut into small squares. Go on, have a go and let me know!
Mango and raspberries are always in my freezer. Fab ingredients for smoothies, but in the summer we make ice lollies and iced desserts! Based on a classic mango lassi recipe, the cardamom brings these flavours together beautifully. This recipe is made using Greek yoghurt but also works with non-dairy alternatives such as coconut milk/cream or almond milk. Once the ice moulds are full, enjoy the leftover as a smoothie.
We all need to find that perfect post workout refuel snack that will hit the balance between carbs and protein. This could be it for you! It is a no bake recipe, super easy, 5 mins to make and sets in the fridge within an hour! With that rich cacao flavour it will also satisfy that little craving for a treat! Perfect Sunday food prep ready for the week to avoid grabbing some high sugar processed snack in a rush!
Life without the occasional brownie is not for me! For that reason, I love trying to play with swapping and replacing ingredients for those with a better nutritional value. For these brownies I have not used refined white or brown sugar but instead opted for medjool dates. You would honestly not notice the difference. But I will let you be the judge of that…Go on, have a go and let me know!
We usually recommend to avoid snacking if possible and focus on 3 nourishing and balanced meals a day, but, family life, work, busy schedules, sporty kids and big workouts can often call for a refuel on the go. In that case, we would always prefer making our own snacks, with real simple wholesome every day ingredients we know and recognise and always include protein. These energy balls do not require any food processor or baking. 5 minutes to make and set in the fridge in an hour! Give them a go!
Can you resist these? Really simple to make, but also, amazingly healthy and nutritious. What’s not to like? Children will love to get involved and they can customise with their favourites. You can substitute with blueberries or blackberries - or any of your favourite berries. You can use frozen berries too. A colourful snack or healthy treat perfect to share (or not!).
When your Fruit & Veg box unexpectedly contains a pineapple and the sun is shining? Turn that smoothie into a delicious popsicle. That well known pineapple and coconut combo works every time. A simple and delicious way to enjoy the homemade frozen treat at home all summer long.
Nut allergy sufferers stay away! I’m afraid these slices are made almost entirely from nuts in natural, butter, oil and flour form. This kind of snack is my absolute heaven. I love nuts, all of them and I love a sweet and salty treat. However, I would recommend moderation as they are very calorie dense. They are gluten free, packed with good fats and contain no refined sugar so much better than any of the shop bought industrial plastic wrapped processed snack you can buy on the high street. Sure to satisfy a sweet craving without the nasty ingredients!
There is often a debate in my house which goes like this: there is team carrot cake and team banana bread . So I thought I would try and bring the two together! Brave I know and lots of confused faces! I will leave you to judge on that once you’ve tried it! Delicious served toasted with a dollop of your favourite nut butter.
Similar to another one of our recipes but even easier. They are the perfect recipe to hand over to the kids so they can make by themselves. Limited ingredients, all done by hand, no knife needed, minimum mess to clear up…just perfect. They are also best eaten straight out of the oven!! Ideal activity and treat rolled into one for when kids are at home with friends!
There are many many versions of these types of snacks you could make, but this is a good place to start…Build the confidence and change up the ingredients to suit your tastebuds and what’s in your cupboards! This recipe requires very few ingredients, no food processor involved so minimal washing up…10 mins to make, 30 minutes to set in the fridge and they’re ready to go! What more can you ask for from a delicious cheeky snack!
Slightly indulgent in sweetness but full of fruity goodness, spelt wholesomeness and cinnamon warmth, those muffins are such a comforting treat after a long dog walk teamed up with a hot drink, a log fire and the papers maybe!
So so simple to make, I hope you give them a try and add to your kids’ lunch boxes or share with friends when catching up.
Cookies are not just delicious to eat, they’re such a joy to re-invent creatively! I like playing with the base ingredients, extras, and adjust with the seasons. These are flourless, naturally gluten free and contain no refined sugar. They are best eaten warm straight out of the oven and shared obviously!
Family life would not be the same without cookies! So I’m always trying new ingredients and combinations. But today this is just one of those healthy classic options that I keep re-inventing. Quick and easy, delicious, perfect for the kids to make themselves. What’s not to like! Perfect healthy snack for school pick up before heading to sport clubs!
With Autumn comes a beautiful fruit season, especially when you live in Kent, the Garden of England, surrounded by orchards and this upside down cake is a great alternative to a crumble. It present beautifully, keeps well and is delicious with a little vanilla ice cream! It contains no sugar besides the fruits and a little maple syrup. It is naturally gluten free and so quick and easy to prepare.
Most flapjack recipes are packed with sugar - but if you include some sweet fruit, such as raspberries then you can really cut down on the sugar content. We have used honey as well as the berries to sweeten these flapjacks. The first time I cooked these I left them on the side and when I came back to them my daughter and husband had helped themselves to quite a few squares. So these were definitely a hit and as they are super easy and nut free make a great school snack!
