Apologies for the silence over the past couple of weeks – I’ve been taking some time off this month to celebrate mine and Katie’s 31st birthdays, and as such I just haven’t had the time to get in the kitchen. But never fear – I’ve managed to tear myself away from binge-watching The Umbrella Academy…

Sticky Toffee Bundt Pudding
Oh my gosh, this is what dreams are made of. A gorgeous sticky toffee pudding – in a bundt pan. With an easy toffee sauce that even a caramel novice can master. It’s what this cold January has been begging for! So yeah, I finally got myself a bundt tin. Well, it was actually a…
Mulled Winter Punch (Non-Alcoholic)
[AdSense-B] This week marks the arrival of the Bath Christmas Market to town. It’s one of the highlights of the festive season for anyone who lives here, and it means that my evenings will be spent meandering between the cute little wooden huts, eating mince pies and drinking hot chocolate. This might be the last Christmas…
Toblerone Hot Chocolate
[AdSense-B] Today’s recipe is served with a side order of sadness. Cue X-Factor style sob-story music. Three Christmases ago something magical happened. I walked into my neighbourhood Starbucks, ready to get myself into the festive spirit and drink something seasonal from one of those gorgeous red cups, and noticed something magical on the menu –…
Marble Halloween Cupcakes (with Black Frosting)
[AdSense-B] As soon as I started brainstorming Halloween recipes for the blog this year, my mind immediately jumped to black frosting. Ironic really, considering that the most popular post on What Charlotte Baked is How to Make Super White Buttercream. Give the people what they want and all that. But I was determined to get…
Maple Apple Pie
[AdSense-B] It’s Sunday afternoon (for me anyway) and whilst I sit here and wait for Amazon to bring me my new Nintendo Switch, I thought it was about time I got around to sharing this absolutely gorgeous Maple Apple Pie I made a few weekends ago. This might actually be the best thing I’ve ever…
S’mores Tarts
[AdSense-B] October = autumn, for sure. Don’t even try to argue with me anymore. I’ve even gone all out and sprinkled my photos with autumnal orange and red leaves, and there are some cute little faux pumpkins on the table next to me which are going to soon be scattered all over the house. And…
Peanut Butter Sugar Cookies with Easy Royal Icing
It’s official – autumn starts right here. I’ve started wearing woolly jumpers, the Christmas shopping has begun. Heck, I’ve even gone and bought a new winter coat. There’s something special about this time of year that just gets me so excited for the next few months of cold crisp weather, dark evenings snuggled up under…
Apple Sultana Oatmeal Cookies
The clocks have gone back, the heating is on, and the sun is setting before I’ve even left the office. Holidays are coming! But before this blog gets completely overcome with festive cheer and cranberries, there’s just enough time for a few more weeks of autumn. And a bit more apple. These cookies are super…
Pumpkin Spice Roll Out Cookies
What? No bright orange Halloween bake? I could pretend that I deliberately avoided creating anything tacky on purpose… but the truth is that unfortunately my hidden pumpkin cake did not go to plan at all. It was a mess. Less hidden pumpkin, more hidden blob. It tasted good though – so I’m sure there is a…
Toffee Apple Crumble
And the crumble-binge continues. This is my last one this autumn, I promise. And why not go out with a bang? This toffee apple crumble is the absolute best dessert to come home to after watching the Bonfire Night fireworks. This recipe almost reads like a typical apple crumble, but with the key addition of…
Caramel Apple Bars
Caramel Apple Bars… because apparently everything I make this autumn has to have a crumble topping. This is defintely a case of a recipe that tastes so much better than it photographs. I even went to the effort of trying to jazz things up with a bit of maple syrup icing. It’s not my fault…
Blackberry Apple Crumble Muffins
I’ve basically had a headache for 10 days now (thanks a lot stress), so apologies for the lack of new recipes. It hasn’t been for a lack of baking – I’ve got recipes and photos coming out of my ears, but concentrating for long enough to actually sit down and write something has been a…
