As much as I enjoy biscuits and cake, sometimes the only thing that will satiate my sweet tooth is a hit of pure chocolate. However, so many types of chocolate contain dairy, so it can be hard to find a sweetie that fits the bill. Also, a lot of pre-made chocolates can be of pretty mediocre quality and don’t seem worth the money they ask for them. Thankfully, that’s where these homemade dairy-free chocolate truffles come in. I’d estimate that this entire batch of dairy-free chocolate truffles cost me around £1.50 to make. I know that seems unbelievable, but it’s true.

Iron-rich Flapjacks (makes 20)
I often have low iron levels and so I like to try to have snacks at hand which are packed full of natural sources of iron, such as these iron-rich flapjacks. As much as I enjoy eating meat on occasion, it can get a bit tedious (and expensive) to frequently eat a lot of meat, but thankfully, there are lots of great ways you can incorporate iron into your diet without always having to resort to eating meat all the time.

Rice crispy cakes always remind me of being a kid because it was one of the first ‘bakes’ I learned how to make myself.

The chatter about Christmas has been well upon us since the start of October, so it’s given me quite a lot of time to think about what I like to cook around Christmastime. I tend to always make a Christmas cake at the end of November, albeit a FODMAP friendly version that’s very light on the dried fruit, but not everyone enjoys fruit cake so it’s nice to have an alternative to hand when people come to visit, such as this biscuit Christmas tree.
