I think every child should have a go at making muffins. You can add fruits that are past their use-by date and take them for lunches

​

A quick dessert when people are coming for dinner in an hour.  Key ingredients are a tin of plums and custard

​

Brownies with less added fat and more added fruit

​

The key ingredients in this cake are oranges, almond meal and polenta, fitting in well the Mediterranean theme 

Remember chocolate truffles? Well a bit like them but way healthier

Peanut butter is a legume and full of unsaturated fat. So, it is a good alternative to butter as long as no one is allergic to it.

Similar to a cheese cake but healthier:

The base contains almond meal, honey and soy milk.  The top is thick custard with blueberries

Get your kids to make this dessert.

It helps to have some sort of apple coring device. Serve with custard 

Cook cherries in spices for a few minutes and then add vodka.  Too easy! Give them as a gift or eat them for Christmas

A South American sweet. The main ingredient is sweet potato but people often guess it is apricot!

Oats and dried fruits are both high in fibre. These biscuits will last for at least a week.  So, make a batch and enjoy them with a coffee every day for a week.

​

A quick dessert when people are coming for dinner in an hour and you have been too busy to think about it.  High in fibre!

I was brought up on this cake. Just remember: 4oz fat, 4oz sugar, 8 oz flour and one egg. I've modified it with less butter and more oil.

Just like a shortbread biscuit only green and healthy.Don't be scared! Try it!
