This Healthy Bread and Cake Baking Course is suitable for anyone who wants to look into alternatives to traditional baking and learn how add them to their daily food regime. The course is mainly ‘hands on’, so you will be baking and making your own bread, muffins and other treats.
Some healthy bakes will be demonstrated by your tutor (giving you chance to have another cup of tea or take notes if you wish), but you will still take plenty of samples home.
This healthy course is held in a domestic kitchen in small groups with plenty of one to one tuition from your host Magdalena Marsden.
Our small groups are ideal for learning and ensuring that you get most out of your day. The course is suitable for complete beginners, we will cover cover all the basics of bread baking, general baking, ingredients and equipment use.
Here is what we typically make during healthy baking course:
- Wholemeal Rustic Loaf with caraway seeds
- Breakfast Granola with Fruit & Nuts
- Crispbread with Pumpkin Seeds
- Spelt Loaf with Seeds & Raisins
- Yoghurt & Pear Bran Muffins
- Banana Flapjacks
- plus few more surprises – depending on the season…

Customer’s Feedback
‘Thank you for a great day last Saturday. I’ve looked forward to your course for a while and I’ve enjoyed the day.
My family is quite difficult to bake for, the kinds just love shop bought doughnuts and sweet danish pastries, so when I tried to bake for them in the past, they were not too keen.
This time round, I didn’t tell them that the recipes were healthy (as you suggested) and surprise, surprise my youngest one ate the Banana Flapjacks without much fuss.
I’ve now slowly replaced most of our white shop bought bread with homebaked bread and already start to feel the difference. I’m full up much sooner and feel less bloated than with processed bread.
For work lunch I bake the crispbread and have a soup with it. I can now work right through the afternoon without reaching out for sugary chocolate bar mid afternoon.
Thank you so much – not only the course was a great day out and I’ve learned so much, but now it’s actually changing my life.

‘I wasn’t sure what exactly to expect as I’ve tried to bake ‘healthy’ cakes before and they didn’t taste much! But because of a recent health scare, I’ve decided to take action and book on your healthy course and see whether this time I’ll be ready to make the change.
The course itself was wonderful – thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement and your helpful suggestions for further healthy recipes. It was the inspiration I needed to get me back on track and start slowly changing my diet.
I think, you’d be proud of me now – I’ve replaced my lunch time tripple decker sandwich (!) for your crispbread with humus, carrots and a salad. I thought I would be quite hungry to start off with, but I wasn’t and what’s best is that I don’t feel like falling a sleep behind my desk in the afternoon. I feel more energetic and I started to go out for a short walk to get out of the office. Althought it wasn’t the plan, I’ve also noticed that my clothes are starting to get a bit loose!
So, thank you so very much!’
