Yesterday I posted photos on instagram of these delicious Banana, Date and Walnut Muffins I had just whipped up.  One of my followers then asked for the recipe so I thought I would also share it here – I am lucky to own a thermomix which makes cake mixing super easy – throw it all in the bowl and whizz it together!  These ones were made with wholemeal spelt flour but I do usually use gluten free flour – either way they are delicious! Sweet-Style-1889Sweet-Style-1895Sweet-Style-1905

Cookbook Crush :: The Healthy Life


October 8, 2015

I am pretty much obsessed with Wellness Cookbooks these days!  I am sure a new one is released each week and I am there snapping it up within a few days! 

My current favourite is The Healthy Life by Jessica Sepel.  Good good stuff in here.  

I whipped up some porridge last week using a bit of a combination of recipes from the book.  I an a non gluten or wheat eater so don’t tend to do breakfasts like this very often (it is usually bacon and eggs at our place!).  I combined the peanut butter and banana porridge with the sticky date porridge to get a Sticky Peanut butter, Banana and Date Porridge!    Mine was made with quinoa flakes and homemade almond milk – So delicious!
