Summer holidays are oft fleeting when you’re an adult and it’s usually because they last a week or two and then we’re back in an air conditioned office, held together by the continuing spool of time once again. This summer though was not like most and it was one I looked forward to with much…
Upside down cake is one of those oft not made cakes, and when it is there is usually pineapple involved. There’s a secret ingredient in this cake…passionfruit. The gloriously underrated passionfruit comes to play with plums in something I’ve not seen often in recipes. Whilst it is the middle of summer and currently where I…
Pancake waffles might be the silliest thing for a recipe to be titled, but these are pretty damn easy and in our house, we eat pancakes twice as often as waffles.
