Pumpkin is an extremely versatile vegetable, it is perfect for soup, for all vegetable and meat dishes, and as an addition or main ingredient of cakes. Pumpkin-based cakes are perhaps the most popular in the United States and Great Britain. And the book and the recipe I used to prepare the pumpkin cheesecake is British. [...]
If you haven’t yet, you definitely should try this keto cheesecake. It’s sweet, juicy (oh, yeah!) and light. And it’s made only with three ingredients, if you don’t count apricots. Very easy to make, you don’t need no special skills or huge baking experience. I’ve used apricots for this recipe. It’s a season for plums [...]
Looking from far away you could say that I've made a cake with tomatoes. But it's only guava slices. That's one of my older recipes, very summery, no bake cake based on whipping cream and jelly. You can also prepare it as vegan option, using coconut milk and vegan gelatin. Great idea for an evening [...]
Basing on the idea of this small cheesecakes, I've made this cacao cream cheese muffins. Using absolutely no flour, so for all of you who are gluten intolerant or on ketogenic diet, this recipe will be a good option. They are very easy and fairly cheap to make, you can upgrade them using low sugar [...]
Seson for plums, apricots and peaches has begun. I have to admitt that I love fruits and I’ve been missing the a lot on keto diet. But August is the best time for these fruits, so I enjoy them as much as I can, to (probably) come back to keto in winter with no regrets. [...]
I don't know if you make any summer garden parties in this crazy 2020, but if you do, check out this idea. It's hard to call it a recipe, because there's no specific set of ingredients or preparation, but it was published on my old blog couple years ago and it was very popular, so [...]
Today's recipe is actually not something new, but good old keto courgette cake in cacao version. It's fluffy, chocolatey, moist and stuffed with nuts. There's nothing better on a rainy day than chocolate cake and book. BTW I have to recommend you Donna Tart's book "The Goldfinch". I'm not the best with describing books, so [...]
Does anyone can explain me what's the difference between cupcake and muffin? I was deliberating about it for a while - how to call them - a cupcake or a muffin. Muffins are for me more like "bread" kind of dough, and cupcakes usually have some cool creamy frosting on top, when these small cheesecakes [...]
If you're on keto and don't like coconut flour taste and/or can't use almond flour, this linseed (flaxseed) flour peanut butter muffins are a great option for you. Quick and easy to make, can be treated as a snack or quick lunch when you're in a run. Made with just couple ingredients, that if you're [...]
This dessert reminds me the ones that all the mums were making for kids birthday parities when I was a child. Simple, easy to make with basic ingredients (apart from mascarpone that didn't exist in my childhood), looking kind of fancy and extra in the same time. Any of the kids party couldn't have been [...]
