Applescotch pie – low in sugar
Reading Time: 2 minutes Once upon a time there was the Queen of Cakes, and everyone who had a birthday at her office would consider themselves lucky if she baked something yummie for the occasion. Right, enough of the Fairytale, but it is true that every time I bring some baked goodies to the…
No sugar healthy donuts
Reading Time: 3 minutes This recipe is another one of those brought to you by Cocinando Sabores, with February’s challenge to make homemade donuts from scratch and low in calories. These no-sugar donuts are baked in the oven (the sweetness is added with honey instead) instead of deep-fried. They are still fluffy and delicious,…
Red coloured 20 minute gnocchi
Reading Time: 2 minutes My darlings, since the flu has decided to take me prisoner for a few days, a simple recipe is all I can bring you at this moment. I look forward to days filled with complex baking recipes, beautiful and rich ganache, creme brulée, and my brain working out how to…
Marble effect clay coasters
Reading Time: 2 minutes When the blog first came to life I thought of this project as the first craft I wanted to introduce to you, and for one reason or another I’ve not found the time to go buy oven clay as my supplies at home went dry from lack of use, as…
Tomato marmalade
Reading Time: 3 minutes The year isn’t over yet but here I come with the very popular recipe I promised: the delicious and original tomato marmalade. It can sound a tad strange, since tomato is an ingredient usually associated to savoury and not sweet, but this marmalade is perfect to pair with many savoury…
Schnitzel mit Kochkäse und Musik – Breaded cutlet with cheese and “music”
Reading Time: 3 minutes Personally, I never really understood what all the fuss was about when it came to breaded cutlet. It’s a very popular food in Spain, and it’s the most typical “kiddies menu” together with spaghetti bolognese. I’ve just never been a huge fan of deep fried stuff – I know, gasp!…
Bunyols de vent – Mallorquin sweet puffs
Reading Time: 2 minutes In Mallorca, this time of the year we celebrate St. Ursula (21st October) or mostly known as the Virgins’ Day. The story behind is quite gruesome, involving St. Ursula and 11000 virgins’ pilgrimage to Rome through Germany, where they were killed by the huns as they didn’t accept their sexual…
Salted caramel mulled cider
Reading Time: < 1 minute Here in Germany you can hear Christmas around the corner (I won’t mention the fact that all the stores carry the typical seasonal crap since already weeks ago…). It’s beautifully autumnal right now, the yellow and red leaves are scattered everywhere and it just feels so cozy that all I…
Fruit & nut chocolates
Reading Time: < 1 minute As you may already know, I’m part british (although many people can’t tell due to my mish-mash of an accent) which automatically makes me a Cadbury lover. And it is no secret that my all-time favourite chocolate is their Fruit & Nut – followed closely by Toblerone, because who better…
Chicken mayonnaise
Reading Time: 2 minutes Another family treasure: the chicken mayonnaise or leftover mayonnaise. Or the how-to-make-leftovers-into-another-meal base recipe. My dad used to make this a lot when I was little, and before him my grandmother, and before that my great grandmother. This is another one of those recipes that I’ve taken over by…
