It’s deliciously creamy and served with super easy toasted whole wheat wraps!

Hot cross bun pull apart loaf

Hot cross bun pull apart loaf is the absolute best idea when you’re looking for something special to spice up your Easter celebrations. Its the perfect balance between doughy, sweet and spicy. It’s amazing to think that most all baked good can be made vegan, and oh bot, I’m so glad this one turned out so great! We thoroughly enjoyed this loaf so much and I even wanted to make it again but had to refrain myself to other Easter goodies for now. One thing is for sure, it was unforgettable.

Hot cross bun latte

Hot cross bun latte is just a perfect drink on this cold Friday. With Easter two weeks away, I can’t help but dive right into the spicy splendor the season has to offer. It is a pretty special event coming up and I want to celebrate accordingly, kicking off with this very delectable spicy latte. I haven’t done a whole lot of drinks on my website, but I had to share this one!

One bowl carrot cake muffins

One bowl carrot cake muffins will simplify your life. They are vegan, fluffy an loaded with all the good stuff. The hidden veggies, since my toddler and husband can spot vegetable a mile away are just sublime and adds to the uber fluffiness. These little bubs of goodness are pros at fooling even the very picky eaters of them all.

Blood orange waffles

Blood orange waffles couldn’t come at a better time. It’s spring pretty soon and oh my goodness I cannot wait. It’s been a pretty tough two weeks since my son’s second birthday. The notorious flue has gotten it grips on me. Hopefully it soon will pass, but for now, a crunchy stack of gluten-free waffles with these tangy blood oranges will suffice! I topped these vegan waffles with homemade coconut yogurt, bananas, coconut nectar and salted pistachio’s.

Pineapple upside down cake

Pineapple upside down cake has summer written all over it. It’s light, decadent and has a sweet tang thanks to the pineapple. I am in love with these last couple days. The mornings are still a bit fresh, but then later in the day, it gets slightly heated and then cools down once again around four in the afternoon. The birds sing and the wildflowers, especially the pops of red from the poppy flowers make me so happy. There are lilac trees and elderflower trees, that I didn’t even know was around us a year ago. I watch our son play, and he is just having a ball playing outside. This season of life I am enjoying so much.

Blueberry pear crumble

Blueberry pear crumble is a comfy alternative to my usual green smoothie lately. Since spring is nowhere to be seen and Castres is dreary and rainy like usual. I need a pick me up because I just can’t take this rain anymore. This blueberry pear crumble is just so yum, because first of all, it has creamy almond butter in, alongside with sweet pear and tangy blueberry. Absolutely yum!

Sommerskos op die tafel met Marita van der Vyver

Om die tafel met Marita van der Vyver, is ‘n droom onderhoud wat ‘n werklikheid geword het vir my. Nie net is sy ‘n ikoniese skrywer nie, maar sommer ‘n bobaas kook ook. Somerkos in Provence is sowaar net ‘n voorsmakie van die “creme de la creme” lewe van Marita van der Vyver in Frankryk. Ek het behoorlik gesmul toe ek deur haar Somerkos in Provence kosboek blaai en ek kon nie wag om elke resep te probeer nie.
