Well, after being woken up at 4am this morning (it’s usually 5am), I decided to make the most of it and be productive. So I made cookies at 7am while the kids ate breakfast. I have to admit, I usually stick to my oaty cookie recipe and use that base for any cookie recipe, just…

Nourishing Lactation Cookies
And so the nesting continues… Following on from my Lactation Tea post last week where I promised some lactation cookies, here they are! I’m making these, along with my Breastfeeding Flapjacks, to freeze in preparation for baby number 2, as I sure as hell won’t have time to make any once the little one arrives!…
Chocolate Raisin Cookies
I do love a cookie, me. There’s nothing like a cookie with a cup of tea, and they’re just so easy to reach for in the afternoon when that dip starts happening. They’re also great for baby led weaning (just omit the raisins) and as a snack for those peckish kids who seem to eat…
Buckwheat Chocolate Chip Cookies
Always one to attempt a new chocolate chip cookie, I deviated from the foolproof recipe I felt confident enough to label Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies, which are made with oats, and I made these, with buckwheat flour. If I’m honest, I still feel you can’t get that real moistness with anything other than oats,…
Coconut & Sultana Peanut Butter Cookies
This was one of those recipes I was sure was set to be a failure. I just wanted to throw something together to make some healthy cookies for the week, but I really fancied something different to the other cookies on the blog. Thankfully (because I HATE wasting ingredients) they turned out scrumptious, despite my…
Easy Chia Raisin Cookies
3pm. Rainy day. Cup of tea. Cookie. Have I painted enough of a picture for you? There really is nothing better than a biscuit with a cup of tea come the afternoon if you’re having one of those days (let’s try not to do it every day, healthy or not!) but of course we want…
Chocolate-Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies
Braxton is leaving his childminder this week and starting nursery – eek!! I didn’t know what to get the lovely ladies at the childminder so decided to make them some nice things and package them nicely as a thank you. I made them these and some chocolate truffles – I hope they like them and…
Golden Linseed Oat Cookies – Full of Omega-3 and Great for Baby Led Weaning
As many of you know by now, I usually make sure to make a batch of something sweet but healthy once a week (ish!) so that I don’t have to give Braxton anything processed or filled with sugar. I don’t give him sweet things every day (apart from fruit), but I do like to give…
Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies
These need very little introduction! They are by far the best cookies I’ve ever made and I honestly just threw the ingredients together as I was in such a rush so it was hard for me to remember the exact measurements! They are egg, soya, gluten, dairy and sugar free (depending on what chocolate chips…
Healthy “Oreos”
My son loves Oreos, so I wanted to come up with a healthier version for him. Buckwheat is gluten-free and is considered a wholegrain, even though it is not in fact a grain. It lowers cholesterol and blood pressure; contains antioxidants and easily digestible protein; is high in fibre and helps to combat diabetes….
