Apple and Blueberry Muffins

Apricot and Tofu Pudding

Tofu makes this pudding high in protein so it can double up as a good breakfast choice or a snack.

Apple and Walnut Pie

This pie resembles a strudel but is a lot simpler to make.

Poached Pears with Chocolate Sauce

I am sure you have heard this lots of times before, but here it is again. When buying cooking chocolate, buy the best quality possible. Higher the cocoa component, better the chocolate.

Mixed Berries in Blackcurrant Jelly

If you like a stronger blackcurrant flavour, use more fruit juice and less boiling water.

Pumpkin Pudding with Nutmeg and Walnuts

When my mother cooks pumpkin, pieces come out the same shape as when they went in and they are always cooked to perfection. When I do it they look a mess. So I decided to make some changes to the recipe to suit my capabilities.

Chocolate Polenta Cake with Choc Chips

You just can’t have a recipe book without chocolate recipes. As it happens, chocolate can be good for you, in moderation of course.

Ricotta Cheese Cake

This is as guilt free as it gets, but it is best to make it when you are entertaining so that you don’t get tempted to pick on the left overs.

Stewed Apricots with Honey Yoghurt and Almonds

These apricots are delicious on cereals or on their own as a snack.

Bread Pudding

Although the ingredients are fairly harmless, this pudding is quite filling. So, I suggest you serve it after a light meal.

Apple and Blackberry Crumble

If by chance you have some left over (never happens in our house), you can keep it covered, in the fridge for up to 3 days. Also wonderful for breakfast.

Poached Eggs with Spinach and Yoghurt

Garlic in the yoghurt might sound a bit strange to you, but where I come from, we drizzle it over most vegetables. Trust me it is very good, just try it.

Baked Brown Rice Pudding With Apricots

Have this breakfast pudding at room temperature. It will keep in the fridge, covered, for 2 days. It can also double as a delicious dessert.
