Holidays are coming and it’s great to have a few delicious and simple cookie recipes at hand:) I’ve already tested some and would love to share them on the blog. This recipe delivers quite a traditional outcome: buttery, oaty and slightly chocolatey cookies. What makes them special is a seriously spicy kick of ginger! To warm up…

Coconut Banana Bread with Chia (gluten-free)

Last week in the absence of any regular flour I was making this bread for my friend. Fantasizing all the way through, I tried to figure out where it would take me. The fantasy resulted into an incredibly fragrant, moist and spongy loaf of banana coconut bread! People’s feedback is always a kind of confirmation…

Spicey & Gingery Pear Cake (vegan)

Today I’m excited to introduce one fantastic vegan cake by Ally, one of the collaborators of our Vegan Challenge organized in September by Nicolas www.blogtasticfood.com (again, I’m very grateful for this inspiring collaboration!). I’ve altered Ally’s recipe a little bit, the original one with a video tutorial can be found here. This cake amazed me by its incredible…

Apricot sour cherry & black currant oat Crumble (Crisp)

Crumble is the best way to utilize any fruit you have at hand to make an indulgent dessert or breakfast. You can choose any fruit or combination. It’s goes fantastic with ice cream, yogurt or crème fraîche. I love crumbles!! In summertime it’s just a heaven-like dessert:) Another variation of crumble was shared here. Happy cooking!:)…

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…

Poppy seed, banana & cranberry cottage cheese pie (sugar-free)

When I was having on my mind this cream cheese poppy seed tart but there was no chance to make it, I prepared this dessertish breakfast instead:) It’s sugar-free, protein-packed, and with a hint of coconut. Sweetened with bananas, and with a bit of cranberry sourness. Could be eaten either for breakfast, lunch or as a dessert…

Carrot vanilla cottage cheese pie

Breakfast time is calling for protein-rich and carroty bake like this! Actually, one can decide whether it will be a dessert or just an ordinary breakfast meal:) This incredibly fragrant goodie gets firm=easily portable after cooling. But I think it tastes best when freshly baked:) Makes 4 servings Takes 50 minutes (15 preparation, 30 baking, 5…

Chocolate oat rye cookies (vegan)

Soft and crumbly semi-sweet chocolatey cookies! They are easy-to-make, wheat-dairy-free and delicious. The rye flour here is subtle. Instead of water you can add a cup of brewed coffee or nut/seed milk. For those who like sweet-and-salt combination, I suggest to sprinkle these cookies with big flakes of salt that will be perceptible as little salty nuggets of…

Corn coconut cookies

Soft chewy and moderately sweet corn cookies with coconut work great as a grab-and-go snack. They can be stored in a cookie container for a week or more. Enjoy!:) Makes 2,5 dozen cookies Ingredients 1/2 cup corn oil 1 cup greek yogurt (I used low-fat) 1 egg 1/2 cup light brown sugar (or granulated sugar) 1/2…
