Veggie pikelets

These scrumptious pikelets are packed full of healthy vegetables that your kids won't even notice. Whip them up for afternoon tea or pop into lunch boxes for a tasty and nutritious snack.

Chocolate crispy biscuits

These biscuits may be the chocolate chip biscuits of your dreams. A little bit crunchy, a little bit chewy and sandwiched together with even more chocolate! A simple recipe that the kids can help with, these biscuits make a great addition to the biscuit barrel and will become a family favourite.

Lunchbox pasties

Tired of packing sandwiches in your kids' lunch boxes every day? Try this easy alternative. Lunchbox pasties use ready rolled pastry sheets and have a healthy filling of chopped vegetables with a handful of cheese.

Easy tortillas

This is a great recipe to get the kids involved in. They'll love mixing the simple dough, then rolling it out to make yummy tortillas hot from the pan ready for making their favourite Mexican. Yum!

Amaretti

I love the flavour of orange zest in these biscuits. Try lemon zest or a teaspoon of vanilla extract for different flavours.

Date and walnut loaf

This easy bake is wonderful served warm and spread with butter but equally delicious sliced up for morning tea the next day. Just wrap in baking paper, pop in an airtight container and see how the flavour develops. Yum!

Lazy lamingtons

Making lamingtons can be so much easier if you buy the sponge cake already made. This lamington recipe is perfect for when you need to whip something up quickly for the cake stall that you forgot about!

Cheesey scones

These are delicious straight from the oven while they are hot and smear with more lashings of butter. Cut them in half and stuff with ham and tomato then reheat under the grill.

Sultana scones

Allowing these scones to just touch while cooking will keep them moist and help them to rise in the oven. The secret to this recipe is the resting time. If you skip this step you'll be making rock cakes rather than scones.

Mini croissants

Whatever filling you fancy, there's a croissant here for you! Be it chicken and avocado, ham and cheese or even Nutella, take your pick for a yummy breakfast or lunch box filler.
