If you’ve read just a few recipes on this blog, you’re probably aware that I love chocolate for breakfast. A child’s dream come true! Of course, I make sure mine is full of nutrients – cocoa for antioxidants, coconut flour for fibre and fewer processed carbohydrates, psyllium for extra fibre, and…
To all the lonely people out there: I feel you. But never mind that. When there’s chocolate, there’s happiness, and with this cake you don’t have to share? I know, I know. I’m far too insightful. Chocolate good. Seriously, though – you don’t have to feel bad at all for scoffing…
So I was craving cinnamon buns. Sue me 🙂 This thing is dreamily soft, moist, and cinnamon-filled. The oats make it totally breakfast-worthy, with all their fibre and healthy carbohydrates. Egg adds protein to keep you satisfied, while yoghurt provides calcium and extra protein. Serve this with a drizzle of…
This delicious bowl of carrot, tuna, eggs, and peanut sauce is sort of like the Indonesian dish “gado gado”. Think of it as a healthy ‘bacon and eggs’ type of breakfast, Asian-style! This bowl packs a super punch of protein. Eggs also provide Vitamins A, Bs, and D, phosphorous, biotin,…
As I mentioned in “Pumpkin Pie Soaked Oats” (see my recipe in “Breakfasts”), I love pumpkin. This pumpkin pie is a mini, healthier version of the original, complete with a buttery oat crust and a creamy, dreamy filling. You can serve this with a splodge of yoghurt if you’re feeling…
I was so pumped to find a can of pumpkin purée at the supermarket the other day. I didn’t think it was sold anywhere in New Zealand – but, in the International Secton of Countdown, I came across an American import that made my eyes water with joy. I love…
I love crumble cakes – the crunchy, buttery topping combines perfectly with the soft sponge underneath. Coffee provides a bitter contrast to the vanilla – though I usually prefer rich, dense cakes (think chocolate lava!), on occasion a tea cake like this simply feels right. The over-sweetening of sponges…
Fluffy, doughy, spicy, and sweet, these cinnamon rolls make will make your life complete! Small as a mouthful, cute and petite, what better to make for a delicate treat? I have always loved cinnamon buns, but usually they’re pretty sugary. These, on the other hand, are mildly sweet and far more satisfying.…
Some of the recipes on my blog are pretty out there. I’ll admit that. However, sometimes you just need a simple and delicious breakfast – no fuss! I made this to start my race day, to fuel me through regional cross country I would be running in a few hours.…
I have to say, granola is one of my favourite breakfast foods. I don’t mean that useless, dried-fruit-filled stuff with more sugar than a dessert – I’m talking wholesome, crunchy, delicious goodness! This is filled with nuts, seeds, and coconut for plenty of satisfying fats. I love how you can…
