I love donuts. I love toast. I love french toast – provided there’s enough cinnamon involved. So putting all 3 together to make a french toast in a donut style (a la Nigella with a cinnamon twist) is a brilliant…
My OH would say I don’t need a slow cooker. We have an Aga, so in his eyes, there’s no need for a slow cooker. Which is true to an extent, but there’s a lot of stages in using an…
Whenever I need to provide cakes or biscuits for work birthdays, I always make these delicious golden ginger macaroons. At my old work there were a couple of colleagues who would always rave about them, and my boss has done…
