RECIPE: Healthy Lamingtons

December 17, 2018

To celebrate Australia Day, we are sharing a delicious healthy lamington recipe by Teresa Cutter from  The Healthy Chef (a must-visit website for healthy recipe ideas). Adding raspberries to the inner cake layer is a delicious inclusion plus the recipe is gluten free, dairy free and nut free. It’s a win win win.
