Mar 3 French "spice bread", pain d'épices

A French Classic from my childhood revisited. Growing up in France, the school pick up snack was a big deal, and it still is of course. For me, it was quite often a couple of slices of “Pain d’épice”. It is a bread, but made with honey and spices such as ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon. It is the closest thing to the very British malt loaf my children grew up with at Nursery in England.

Mar 2 carrot, apple & ginger flapjacks

These flapjacks were inspired by my daughter’s love of carrot, apple and ginger juice. The carrot and apple make them naturally sweet so there’s no refined sugar in these flapjacks, although I have used some maple syrup to sweeten further. We always try and add vegetables to as many of our dishes as possible and these flapjacks are a perfect example. Perfect for summer picnics or after school treats.
