I'm so sorry to have neglected this blog for so long! But its a new year and in 2019 I aim to post more frequently. I thought to kick off 2019 i'll start with a recipe that might suit those people who are looking to eat a bit healthier going into the new year. So I've attempted to create a recipe that is a bit healthier, by designing a fruit, oat and nut cookie! But it's still not that healthy, hence the name 'Almost Healthy Cookies!' Hope you enjoy the recipe...
Ingredients
4oz Butter
4oz Demerara Sugar
1 tbsp Golden Syrup
4oz Self Raising Flour
2oz Oats
2oz Roughly Chopped Hazelnuts
2oz Sultanas
Method
- Firstly pre heat the oven to 180℃.
- Next cream together the butter and the sugar, until light and fluffy.
- Add the Golden syrup and mix in.
- Now add the flour and the oats, once the mixture is uniform you can add the sultanas and hazelnuts.
- Using a tea spoon, get a heaped tea spoon amount of the mixture and role into a ball in the palm of your hand. Place each ball on the baking sheet about an inch apart to allow for spreading, squish them down slightly and then place them in the oven of 12-15 minutes, depending on how soft or crunchy you like your cookies.
Enjoy!!
Long time no blog... Apologies for the lack of blogs in the recent months, but with assignment deadlines and other things I have struggled to find the time to write a blog...sorry. But better late than never!
I have recently been on a trip to Israel and Palestine, and one of the many highlights of the trip, was the food, in particular the Pita bread! I enjoyed Pita bread with most of the meals I had in Israel, but this authentic Pita was far superior to any Pita bread I had ever had in the UK, so when I returned back to England I craved the soft, light and fluffy Pitas I had eaten in Israel. I therefore decided to develop a Pita recipe of my own, and here it is....
It's Pancake day, so for February's blog I thought I'd share my families Scotch Pancake recipe. This recipe is really simple and makes scrumptious pancakes! My favorite thing to put on pancakes is Nutella and banana but with these pancakes you can keep it as simple or as decadent as you like. Hope you have a great Pancake day and enjoy this recipe...
