The blueberry running through the bars and the crumble on top make these the perfect spring centrepiece moment – my friends better be impressed! From brownies to blondies, flapjacks to fudge, cookies to cakes, the possibilities are endless, as a team of home bakers found out when they started baking their way through the book. In Fitwaffle’s Baking It Easy, her first cookbook, Eloise shares 100 of her easiest cakes, cookies, traybakes and puddings, half of which are made with only 3 ingredients and the rest with only 4 or 5. I love biscuit spread on everything so having it mixed in andswirled on top of the bake is an instant winner for me.

Baked In One is packed full of Eloise’s creative inventions, but you’ll also find plenty of recipes for the classic in there too.Cheesecakes are always a big hit with you guys, especially no-bake cheesecakes, and I can totally understand why! With chapters spanning brownies, blondies, cakes, breakfasts, pies and crumbles, cookies and biscuits, no-bakes, snacks, and seasonal ideas, there’s a simple traybake for every occasion.

I had a feeling some people may like them, but I was nowhere near prepared to have an army of over 1 MILLION home bakers join the Fitwaffle Kitchen community! Adored by over 6 million followers, Eloise’s recipes are all about emphasising the fun of baking by removing the need for long ingredient lists or complicated techniques. Eloise Head, known as Fitwaffle to her 3 million strong tribe of social media followers, is a baking sensation, adored by her fans for her fun, easy-to-recreate and indulgent bakes. A super creamy and sweet No-Bake Milkybar cheesecake, with a buttery shortbread base and a white chocolate ganache topping! What I thought: At the time of making this, I was in Far North Queensland, the banana capital of Australia, so Banoffee pie was the obvious choice when deciding what to make for dessert.The method was easy to follow and they set well in the fridge, with the biscuit and chocolate chunks evenly spread throughout. This cake boasts speculoos in every delicious layer, with the spread rippled through the batter and buttercream, and the finished cake decorated with crushed speculoos biscuits. From five-ingredient bakes to special occasion creations for impressing friends and family, there’s a bake for all eventualities, including some extra special seasonal bakes for Easter, Christmas and more. If you’re thinking a book focusing on the bakes you can make in the same 20cm tin must be a little limited, think again.

A personal trainer, turned food influencer, turned baker, Eloise's recipes inspire, spread joy and bring people together through the love of delicious food. What I thought:This flapjack mix was really tasty, I was tempted to eat it straight out of the bowl before baking, however, the finished product is SO delicious that I was glad I didn’t! I was a bit nervous about making the caramel as all my previous attempts have been disastrous, but the instructions were super clear and there were great tips for how to tell when it was ready.I can’t begin to describe how moreish the end result was and would highly recommend this bake as an all-around simple and delicious recipe that’s perfect for sharing with friends and family. From everyday ideas to special occasion bakes, Eloise proves you don’t need endless ingredient lists and complicated techniques to deliver crowd-pleasing results.

Warming cinnamon with soft dough and sugary icing is the perfect comfort combo and is made even more delightful when it’s as simple and quick to rustle up as this. We brought these into the office and they certainly got the seal of approval from the team who were experiencing the mid-afternoon sugar dip.

When the pandemic hit in March 2020, I quickly made the decision to start sharing recipes on my Instagram account.
