Baked Apples with Raspberry topping

Baked apples are naturally sweet and require only some time and fantasy. They can be stuffed with a variety of tasty things such as nuts, dried fruit, grated pumpkin or carrot, white cheese and so on. Autumn apples are so fresh, juicy and sweet that I bake them usually plain, serving with any fresh berry sauce…

Crêpes with Apple Filling

Easy homemade crêpes with a delicious apple filling. The recipe is good for both sweet and savory applications. After completing cooking and filling a batch of these I’ve got a few spare ones.

Cottage Cheese Coconut Bake

A quick and nourishing breakfast/brunch recipe that might be also served as a dessert.I love white cheeses, cottage cheese and quark in particular.

Easy Apple Strudel (Apfelstrudel)

One easy variation of the apple strudel with raisins. Easy because it uses only 1 layer of dough. The idea of the traditional Apfelstrudel is about a dough rolled around a filling to form many layers. It must be really thin to obtain a flacky texture. And here comes the complexity – stretching the dough without breaking…

Wholegrain Banana Bread with Walnuts

This super fragrant and nutty loaf of  banana bread is great for breakfast or brunch. A variation of a classic recipe that includes wholegrain wheat flour, unrefined sugar, honey and spices. It’s easy-to-make and very, very delicious! I’ve overbaked it for 5 minutes. It’s important to accept and practice imperfectness in life:)(: Happy Baking!:) Takes 50 mins…

Seaweed Rice Muffins with Tofu (gluten-free)

“Dandelion wine. The words were summer on the tongue. The wine was summer caught and stoppered”. Ray Bradbury’s words made me recently ponder over how to “preserve” the SEA. How to create something that would taste like the Sea ♥ And today I’ve eventually realized this lingering idea by making the SeaWeed muffins! Seaweed in…

The easiest recipe that doesn’t require lots of your time and effort:) When autumn fruit are so sweet and juicy…all you need is just to get these goodies:) They can be served independently or in addition to your morning oatmeal.

Iced Lemon Raspberry Scones ♥

Scones! Raspberry Scones!! I was going to make them for so long. And my first attempt in August wasn’t very successful – the scones weren’t scones but flat squares (I’ll share the recipe of these squares though as they were very good too). When you mix a fair bit of berries into a dough they…

Ricotta (cottage cheese) cake with sour cherries

Another dessertish breakfast recipe is coming!:) Mainly containing white cheese: ricotta or cottage cheese, it gets much tastier combined with lemon flavour and cherries:) This recipe makes a semi-sweet cake, add more sugar/honey if you prefer a sweeter taste. Cane sugar can be replaced by white. The yield can serve quite a big bunch of people, otherwise…

Beet & carrot patties with goat cheese

These vegetable patties are made of beet and carrot pulp left after juicing! Since I’m making fresh juices quite often, there had to be found ways to use juice pulp. The pulp is full of fiber! I tried to incorporate it into various recipes adding to cakes’ batter and vegetable stews. However, these veggie patties/burgers became my favorite…
