Beetroot & Chocolate Cakes
Taking inspiraton from the produce grown in the Montessori Centenary Garden at the RHS Chelsea flower show, Chantelle created these tasty recipes for children to make at home.
Maple, Cinnamon & Raisin Buns
These are a slight cross between a pain aux raisin and a Chelsea bun. They are a perfect winter treat with a good cup of coffee. If you can find the larger, sticky flame raisins they have a more intense flavour.
Crispy Chickpea Cakes
These chickpea cakes are delicious. I pondered what to call them as they are not a cake as such, but they are slightly gooey and incredibly moreish, so I thought they are like cake in that respect. Mole originates from Mexico and generally means a thick, spicy sauce. This one is almost like a pesto.
