Mariah Young, Marketing Assistant, felt inspired to do some baking of her own after seeing the fitness team produce some fancy bakes. Recently diagnosed as Coeliac, she wanted to share an easy-to-bake gluten free doughnut that happens to be vegan too!
Thank you, Mariah, for your non-entry into #LockdownBakeOff2020!
