About
| A wonderful gut-healthy recipe from nutritionist Lucy Williamson, based on her Grandmother's recipe from the 1970s. |
We all need treats and we love baking food that tastes amazing as well as being fabulously gut-healthy.
This recipe uses Hodmedod's puffed quinoa and rolled oats, as well as Doves Farm palm-oil-free digestive biscuits. Chopped dates bring plenty of sweetness without having to add too much processed sugar.
Quinoa puffs are a great addition to baking as they’re naturally high in protein, which keeps you fuller for longer. There's plenty of fibre and resistant starch from the oats, quinoa, digestives and cocoa too.
Lucy Williamson is a freelance nutritionist, producer consultant and academic, registered with the UK Association for Nutrition. She was previously a lecturer in Nutrition and Dietetics and is an ambassador for The Real Food Campaign and Love British Food. She also teaches an online Gut Health Course.
Tips: You can also add dried fruit, or mixed toasted seeds, or use cacao powder for a less rich favour. Also popular served with strawberries on the side!

This hearty, comforting, flavour-packed dish showcases the nutty richness of pearled naked barley, a wholesome and nutritious alternative to rice. Naturally high in fibre and full of slow-release energy, barley gives this dish a satisfying bite and depth that pairs beautifully with earthy mushrooms and fragrant thyme.
This Hearty Twisted Spelt Bread from Greens & Grains by Anne-Katrin Weber is a beautifully simple yet impressive loaf that celebrates the rich, nutty flavour of spelt. Combining spelt flour with pearled spelt adds texture and heartiness. This slow-fermented bread develops incredible depth of flavour and a wonderfully crisp crust. With its rustic twisted shape and chewy crumb, it’s perfect for tearing and sharing, serving alongside soups and stews, or enjoying simply with butter and salt.
A simple, deeply nourishing ramen that combines the rich, savoury flavour of Hodmedod’s Fava Bean Umami Paste with the nutrient-packed crunch of SUCSEED.
