Browned butter adds a rich, nutty, and complex depth of flavour to these crumb bars with a boozy creamy chestnut filling. They are excellent with topped with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream. I used the thick homemade chestnut puree, therefore, a few tablespoons of honey whiskey (or cream) were added to make the filling spreadable. If you are using a much thinner storebought chestnut spread, just skip the alcohol. I also added some melted chocolate to the filling, but it’s completely optional.

Spelt is a type of wheat and therefore similar in terms of nutrients, but it contains slightly more protein than its ‘big brother’. But spelt also packs a punch in terms of taste: it has a nuttier and stronger flavour than wheat.
Quark is also a good source of protein and is enriched with certain acid bacteria that are good for digestion and intestinal flora. Spelt quark bread is therefore not only for athletes, but also for people who fancy a moist bread with a delicious taste.
This Quarkbrot is leavened with baking powder and allows you to bake a light and airy loaf of bread with healthy nutrients in just 1 hour, which is perfect if you are in a hurry or have decided to bake bread on the spur of the moment.

The cake is beautifully moist, rich and super comforting and has a very earthy flavour thanks to the North African spice blend ras el hanout. The spice mix works surprisingly well in this sweet buttermilk cake and rose syrup icing complements the spiciness perfectly.
Ras el Hanout, meaning 'top of the shop', is a popular spice blend used in Moroccan, Tunisian, and Algerian cuisines. This vibrant, warm and comforting spice blend comes in many different varieties with different ingredients. Common ingredients include cardamom, saffron, cumin, clove, cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, allspice, dry ginger, chili peppers, rose buds, coriander seed, peppercorn, sweet and hot paprika, fenugreek, and dry turmeric, but ras el hanout can contain up to 100 spices. It is perfect for tagines, couscous & vegetables, as a marinade and much more.

A fun twist on a classic lemon bar, these coconut grapefruit bars come together quickly using sweet yet tangy fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice. Don’t use storebought grapefruit juice as it usually contains added sugar which masks the fruit's natural tanginess.
The combination of the citrusy grapefruit topping and the buttery coconuty base creates a delightful contrast that keeps you coming back for more! These are so easy to make and a perfect dessert for a party or potluck. If you’re a fan of citrus desserts, I’m sure you will enjoy these pretty pinky bars. Since grapefruits are naturally milder, so I have added some lemon juice to the curd, making it more tangy. But you can absolutely use just grapefruit juice.
Brush the buttery crust with two egg yolks after blind baking it before adding the topping. This extra step creates not only a more flavourful, glossy finish, but also a barrier that prevents the topping from making the crust soggy.

This is an easy autumnal dessert that infuses the subtle sweetness, earthy greenness and tropical aromas of humble fig leaves into a moist and flavourful cake with tahini for extra nuttiness and richness. It is a perfect teatime treat served with a dollop of whipped cream and extra fresh figs. The fig leaf serves as a natural and aromatic alternative to traditional parchment paper and imparts a subtle, aromatic flavour to baked goods. You can serve the cake either with fig slices or fig leaf facing up. Cashew butter or sunflower seed butter would be ideal substitutes for tahini.

This foolproof hearty quickbread is studded with rich, chewy figs and crunchy, earthy walnuts and lightly sweetened with erythritol, best served warm with some whipped ricotta, nut butter or honey. You can sub in olive oil, coconut oil, or butter for the walnut oil. I used white spelt flour, but a combination of whole and white flour would work lovely too. Perfect for breakfast or an afternoon treat.

A rustic, freeform pastry made with spelt flour, filled with caramelised red onions, fresh figs, combined with goat cheese and refined with fresh rosemary. For the pastry, I used spelt flour, which goes particularly well with figs thanks to its nutty flavour. However, you can just as easily use regular wheat flour.
Whether as a starter, main course or party snack, the fig spelt galette is sure to be a real eye-catcher on any table. If time is tight, you can of course use ready-made dough from the supermarket for your galette.

The creative yeast buns swirled with butter and blueberry jam, and topped with a lilac icing, are soft, tender and in a league of their own.

Whether for breakfast or in the afternoon with coffee and tea: such wonderfully fluffy, tender buns always put you in a good mood.

With a fun quilt pattern, this poppyseed cake with a cheesecake topping really makes a statement. Not only does it look great, but it also tastes fabulous. This cake recipe offers a little variety and a wow flavour experience that you don’t want to miss out. Schmand is German sour cream with a much higher fat content than regular sour cream. No Schmand, no problem, use crème fraîche instead. If you're feeling adventurous, swapping some homemade eggnog for the buttermilk. I have baked this cake for a few times with different ingredients and temperatures, and the first time I prepared the batter with eggnog and baked at 190C/375F for 50 minutes for a more golden topping. The cake was very tender on first day, and became slightly dry on the 2nd day, but still very good. Other times all with buttermilk and baked at 180C/350 for 45 minutes until lightly browned and it stayed very tender and soft even after 3rd day.

Are you on team muffins or team cupcakes? Personally I prefer unfrosted muffins with a classic domed muffin top to cupcakes, which can be quite sugary sweet and unhealthy, though much more decorative and prettier. You can add nuts, seeds, fruits or other mix-ins to make muffins really interesting and less guilty. The batter of these muffins come together really quickly. However, I decided to make these muffins with creaming method, so the texture is much more airy and lighter, and add a coconut macaroon top, just for fun and extra chew. If you want to use muffin-method (combine the dry and wet ingredients separately, then combine them), you definitely can.
