Sweet But Not Naughty

Raw and baked wholefood desserts and treats with full flavour and without the guilt.

Gluten free sourdough waffles

Gluten free sourdough waffles

These waffles are very different as they have that sourdough taste and are also therefore easier to digest as the grains are already broken down. Practically speaking, this is also a great way to use up excess starter. Leave the pre-mix overnight for a protein rich breakfast, or start preparation […]

 
chocolate and coconut protein bars

Home-Made Chocolate and Coconut Protein Bars

The more we exercise, the more protein we need to build muscle mass. Sometimes it can be hard to find a delicious high protein snack that is also healthy. Thus it is easier to reach for the carbs, which don’t do us any favours. If you look at buying protein […]

Choc Raspberry Pie

This is my most favourite raw dessert recipe yet. A chewy, chocolaty base followed by a smooth, chocolaty centre and a slightly sweet slightly tart raspberry sauce to top.  

 

Pink Drink

This one is for those hot summer days – especially when the kids get home from school eager for something cold. Instead of juicing your fruit, blend it into a smoothie with mineral or coconut water. This way, they get the goodness of the fibre in the fruit as well […]
