This date and chocolate loaf is an interesting combination and doesn’t fail to impress. The only effort it needs, involves chopping up some dates and chocolate. The rest is a quick round of melt and mix. I love this combination as it makes the cake chocolaty and also super moist. I never tire of simple […]
Loaves
Wheat Banana Bread
Banana is one of my favourite fruits to use in baking. Not only it is naturally sweet, it also adds great moistness to any bake you add it to. And of course where would all the ripe bananas go if there was no banana bread. This whole wheat banana bread trumps all other recipes though. […]
Strawberry and Cream Cheese Loaf
Strawberries are in season and this gets me very excited thinking of all the bakes and treats I can make with them. Strawberries are great for dessert and add such a pop of colour to anything you add them to. This loaf is not just my first strawberry bake of the season but also my […]
Sponge Cake With Sprite
Sponge cake is always a winner. Despite its humble flavour and basic nature, it always sounds comforting and inviting. Although generally, a sponge cake gets its lightness from egg whites we found a way around the slightly laborious process when we discovered this recipe. Using sprite in the cake does the job for you and […]
Zucchini Bread
I haven’t posted here in a while. I’ve been trying to find a balance between my love for baking and keep my weight off. If the calories didn’t count, I’d gladly bake 24/7 and eat it all up too. But sigh… This zucchini bread seemed to be a good reminder of the basic changes I […]
Lemon Blueberry Loaf
You know how much I love using lemon in baking. I can’t put my finger on it but there’s something very comforting and elegant about making a lemon cake. This Lemon blueberry loaf is perfect at tea time or as dessert. It’s light, delicate and oozes flavour and familiarity. As a rule, I love using […]
Low Carb Bread
I love trying new recipes and this low carb bread was exactly what I needed after a lot of junk eating on the weekend. I’m in a constant battle between eating whatever I like and feeding myself with nutritious meals. But what I’m always up for is trying a good healthy recipe. Bread making is […]
Chocolate Pound Cake
This Chocolate Pound cake is the real deal. Intense, moist, dark and full of flavour. Probably the first loaf that has got me so head over heels. This loaf is amazing!!!!! The recipe makes a large cake and I made it in two medium-sized loaf tins. More the better isn’t it. Good thing it makes […]
Banana & Rum Cake
Banana & Rum Cake is just another fancy bake you make out of overripe bananas. When life gives you overripe bananas you bake them. Considering we are all often blessed in our kitchen with bananas that go black, we know we could use many recipes that call for them. Before making this Banana Rum cake, […]
Orange Wheat Cake
This Orange Wheat Cake is so fluffy and light, you won’t believe it’s made with wheat. I’ve only lately had luck baking with wheat. After years of believing that using wheat in baking makes dense and heavy cakes here’s a cake to prove that completely wrong. Ingredients for this orange cake This orange cake uses […]
