Cottage Cheese Bread

17 November 2024 ~ cozebakes ~ Leave a comment

It may sound a bit out there but honestly, this bread recipe has proven ridiculously successful. The views and saves on my Instagram Account are some of the highest. It’s also a very simple to make recipe with no kneading, no rising time and doesn’t need lots of ingredients!

To top all that, it’s high in protein, fibre and nutrients and made in one bowl. I urge you to try it and let me know what you think. The reviews have been fantastic so I’m happy to stand over this one.

If you’re not a fan of cottage cheese, then simply blitz it into a sauce like consistency before using but honestly, you can’t taste it and the benefits are so high that it’s worth trying.

Funfetti Banana Squares – Gluten & Dairy Free

9 November 2022 ~ cozebakes ~ Leave a comment

There are times when bananas are much loved and enjoyed and then other times they are left to go brown and not as attractive looking but that’s when they become magical and the most wonderful of ingredients. The riper a banana, the sweeter it is and this helps to reduce the addition of sugar in a recipe.

This recipe has no refined sugars as it uses Organic Maple Syrup for a little sweetness. You can also use Agave Syrup or an artificial sweetener. I use a combination of Almond Flour and Oat Flour and of course Sprinkles!! Almond Flour is not the same as Ground Almonds so be aware when prepping your ingredients.

Raspberry & Coconut Muffins – Gluten and Dairy Free

A very simple and quick recipe which can be made in about 5 minutes. I know I say that about lots of recipes, but I really mean it this time!

As there’s no butter (ie: fat) in this recipe, they are best eaten on the day or next day. You can pop them in the microwave for a few seconds after that if you want.

Cherry & Almond Cookies – Dairy Free version included

15 August 2019 ~ cozebakes ~ Leave a comment

I think practically everyone loves a Bakewell Tart and I’m as big a fan as the rest! These cookies have all those amazing flavours with only a little effort and you can make the dough ahead of time and keep in the fridge till it’s needed.

They contain ground almonds and almond extract to give that delicious Bakewell flavour and the recipe called for glace cherries but as it’s the season for fresh and sweet cherries, I used half and half and it worked out really well.

Raspberry, Blueberry & Lime Drizzle Cake – Gluten, Wheat & Dairy Free

10 April 2017 ~ cozebakes ~ 3 Comments

Where do I start about this gorgeous recipe? It’s impossible to tell the difference between this and a cake made with traditional ingredients and I’ve made enough to know. I’m always dubious about people claiming their cakes made with all sorts of strange ingredients taste exactly as a normal one as I’ve yet to have that experience, but this recipe delivers and how.

You can keep it dairy free using a dairy free or soya spread but if not, just use Stork. The flour is Doves Farm which I always use and it’s gluten and wheat free, comes in both self raising or plain.

If you’re going to try gluten and wheat free baking, then you will need to have Xanthan Gum in your larder. It’s essential to hold together cakes and pastry and stop them from crumbing. It’s easily available in most supermarkets and mine is the Doves Farm one.
