Vegan Hertzoggie tart
Vegan Hertzoggie tart has been on my mind for ages. Hertzoggies is one of my absolute favorite South African desserts ever. They usually come in a small cookie form and is enjoyed over tea and chats late afternoon. I certainly love this tart almost as much as the actual cookies. I have made a smaller cookie version too that I will share with you very soon, but for now this delish tart will take over your taste buds.
Fig rye banana bread
Fig rye banana bread is a banana bread lover’s dream come true. This bread is dense yet light, moist and so delish with the dried figs hidden in there. I absolutely love this bread and will def make it again, again and again. The spelt and rye flours complement the luscious figs so well. I am still dreaming about this loaf.
Prickly pear tapioca pudding
Prickly pear tapioca pudding is utterly amazing whether you decide to have it for breakfast or dessert. I actually ate this bowl of tapioca pudding with my son for breakfast and there was no complaining. It is light and subtly sweetened with juicy hints of prickly pear. I remember we ate these things so much as kids, all sliced up and cold from the fridge. My mother always said we shouldn’t eat too much, but they were just too delish. Now I love to use these beauties in savory and sweet dishes.

I went to the farmers’ market this morning and I had to time it pretty nicely because sprinting through has to come with a game plan. Snacks, water and a list of to buy’s. All the necessities led to a pretty smooth morning and a much-needed nap time afterwards (for the both of us btw).

Cinnamon dumplings
Cinnamon dumplings aka souskluitjies are the ultimate South African comfort food. Lazy days, rainy days or just flat out days. This recipe is a fixer-upper. It’s my pint of ice cream (if I was a Gilmore girl). It’s doughy, soft like a cloud and drenched in a sweet cinnamon syrup, that makes you want to lick the bowl after…
