Buttery Bread Rolls
Initially, these bread rolls were supposed to be scones. Initially. You see, sometime you kinda get the ingredients right but something else appears. Like when you try to make a salad and end up making cupcakes. Yep, that happens. These buttery bread rolls though, are probably one of my best mistakes. Soft, moist, full of favor. Jeez, they’re good. And I do hope you try making them at home too 😊
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
On the one hand we got peanut butter cookies. Heaven. On the other hand we got chocolate chip cookies. Once again heaven. I always wondered why it rarely occurs to people to mix both. Then I stopped wondering and decided to just go for it and make these biscuits. They’re moist. Sweet but not too much. And you can definitely taste the peanut butter. And the melting chocolate chips.
Pumpkin Seeds and Almond Porridge
Porridge is one of my favorite food and breakfast. So easy to make, so fast, so cheal amd so customizable. The thing is to make it creamy (subsitute half of the water for milk) and add a pinch of salt (very important step, as salt enhances the taste and really DOES make a difference). Hope you try this recipe x Porridge is one of my favorite food and breakfast. So easy to make, so fast, so cheal amd so versatile.

Making things from scratch is cheaper, healthier, funnier, and smells better (who doesn’t like the fresh smell of a cake straight out the oven ? 😋).

Coconut Pancakes
Pancakes and me is the best love story 💕. Apparently when my parents were in the states they used to be obssessed with Aunt Jemima’s ones, and they’ve naturally transmitted the passion to me. My best childhood memories are waking up in the morning during the summer vacation to find large pancakes made by my mom qnd eat them, drizzled with a mix of butter and honey, while watching Malcolm in the Middle and Disney Channel. But enough talking, here’s the recipe 🙂 Ingredients 1/4 cup coconut flour // 1/4 cup all-purpose flour // 1/4 tsp baking powder // 2-3 tsp sugar // 1.5 tsp butter or magarine // 1…
White Irish Soda Bread
When I was living in England, I used to get irish soda bread from the store ALL the time. For those who don’t know, orish soda bread is special in that it doesn’t use yeast. Hence, you don’t wait for the dough to rise. And it’s got buttermilk in it, making it super yummy and easy to make. I saw a lot of recipes online use eggs and butter, and plenty of other ingredients, but then that’s a cake. Real, traditional soda bread only has flour, baking soda, salt, and buttermilk. Well I added some sugar in this one but just so it is softer. So there you go: Ingredients…
Patriotic Popsicles (Strawberry/Blueberry)
To be honest with you guys, I was never a massive fan of ice cream. Don’t get me wrong, I do eat it when given the occasion and I find looking at ice cream cones pictures satisfying. However, I could stop eating it for the rest of my life 😌 However, with #popsicleweek and two national holidays coming up (Canada Day and the 4th of July), I thought let’s make some healthy popsicles. So there you go 🙂 Ingredients 1 1/4 cup yoghurt // 1 tbsp honey // 3/4 cup strawberries // 1/3 cup blueberries // 2 tsp lemon juice // 2 tsp sugar Instructions Wash the fruits and dice…
Simple Vegan Pancakes (without banana)
I love pancakes. Among my fondest childhood memories are those week end mornings where my mom would make us giiigantic pancakes. Then we would eat them with a honey-butter mix, or some Nutella. These were sooo delicious. My mom and dad themselves are so into pancakes, especually Aunt Jemma’s one, cause the smell reminds them of their days in the States. Nothing beats a fluffy pancakes, with looots of syrup on top. Oh wait, maybe fruits AND syrup on top beats that up. Anyways, enough talking, here is an easy vegan recipe of pancakes. As it’s vegan, everyone can eat it, no excuse 🙄 Ingredients (makes 6-8) 1 1/4 cup flour…
