Just mix, bake, and you've got decadent brownies that taste like you spent far more effort than you actually did.
Mango & passion fruit curd sunshine tart
This is my absolute favourite tart to make when mangoes are at their peak. The combination of tangy passion fruit curd with sweet, juicy mango is pure sunshine on a plate, and the best part is that it comes together in just under an hour. Mangoes are packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, so you can feel good about indulging in a slice or two. The buttery pastry is wonderfully simple to make from scratch, requiring just a few basic ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen. It's the kind of dessert that looks impressive enough for guests but is actually quite straightforward to pull together.

My mum Martha taught me this recipe years ago, and it's become my go to for weekend breakfasts.
