Banana & honey cupcakes with blueberries!
Banana & honey cupcakes with blueberries!

Delicious, sweet, moist banana cupcakes with blueberries! They make any ‘not so good’ day that much better! Moderately nutritious too! Also, bananas blend really well with natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup, so you can leave borrowing that cup of white sugar from your friendly neighbour to another day.


Banana & honey cupcakes with blueberries!

Ingredients: 3 large ripe bananas, mashed, 150g brown sugar, 90g honey, 60g butter, 225g self-raising flour, 1 tsp baking powder, pinch of salt

Steps: Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius. Line 12 x muffin hole tins with baking cases. In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, honey, sugar and melted butter. Beat with an electric whisk until well blended. Mix in the flour, baking powder and salt with a wooden spoon. Spoon the batter into cases and bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted through the centre comes out clean. Remove tins from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Tip! To add a bit of crunch to your cupcakes, add 150g roughly chopped walnuts, when you add the flour to the mixture.

Okay guys! So my friend and I were feeling experimental one day and we came up with these little guys! Anchovy and mushroom tarts! A strange and yet tasty combination. Beware; it is very salty, in manner of a much overpowering anchovy taste. However after giving my ‘salt’ tastebuds a workout, I decided this little recipe did have a place in the bookshelf for anchovy lovers around!

No, it's not a recommendation.... it's the shocking result of research conducted at Aberdeen University, where professor Andrew Meharg has found that 10% of rice found on British shelves have higher-than-allowed-in-China levels of arsenic.

Mushroom, parmesan and basil muffins

Mushroom, parmesan and basil muffins

Whoah! So it’s not every day that you see, let alone MAKE savoury muffins! But there is a time and place for everything. And today just happens to be savoury muffin day! “What flavoured muffin?” I hear you ask. Mushroom, parmesan and basil muffins! I personally think that savoury muffins taste a whole lot different to their sweet cousins. Not merely because they are of the savoury variety, but because they always seem to have so much more added ingredients (such as mushrooms and basil), which make them taste more wholesome! The basil is an e-s-s-e-n-t-i-a-l part to this muffin as it really does bring a lot of flavour. So I would definitely warn against attempting to make this recipe without fresh basil.
