Coconut Corn Flour Cookies with Carrot (gluten-free)

Take #4 of gluten-free cookies. This time with carrot flavour and chickpea flour. Chickpea flour absorbs the liquids well, whatever you cook with it. Thus in this recipe it’s important not to overdo with flour (of any type) and kneading the dough. It’s better to leave the dough sticky and place to chill. And even…

Orange Scones with Sea Buckthorn

The variation of Scones synthesized this week after picking up some sea buckthorn/sandthorn. These berries I’ve collected really by the sea:) So, to make scones as yellow as possible, I’ve added corn flour and orange zest (fresh and dried). And the bright berries just complemented this composition:) The berries of sea buckthorn add some occasional…

Coconut Poppy Seed Bundt Cake with Raspberries

I don’t know how to introduce this bundt cake except saying that it’s one of the best cakes I’ve ever made and tasted. Spongy but moist, sweet but with a bit of raspberry and lemon sourness. A blend of ground poppy seeds and coconut turned to be remarkably good. The glaze is made of butter, powdered…

Coconut Corn Shortbread Cookies (gluten-free)

There’s nothing like butter or margarine in this recipe but the cookies magnificently remind shortbread. Impressive, right? I guess the mixture of coconut and corn flours gives them such crumbly and tender texture. Moreover, coconut is responsible for an incredible flavour, and corn flour for a yellow colour:) Recently I’ve started making gluten-free cookies experimenting with…

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…

His vegan Lemon Meringue Pie is truly a piece of culinary artwork!:) I’m grateful…

Light, airy, moist cakes with fruit are best in the summer time! Any seasonal fruit will go well with this recipe!
