Summer is upon us! That means it’s time for light, fresh and fruity bakes and those are generally my favourites. Over the years, I’ve posted quite a few wonderfully fruity recipes, which you can find in my recipe index. However, I thought it would be nice to highlight a few of those older recipes in […]

Who doesn’t love a good crumble? It’s such an easy yet delicious dessert, and it’s a perfect way to use up a lot of different fruits. Last year during lockdown, I started making crumbles for two, since I wasn’t exactly sharing it with anyone but my boyfriend. I made a blueberry crumble and a peach […]

I’ve got a great recipe for you today! I baked this cake more or less on a whim, because we had a lot of strawberries and flat peaches lying around and I figured it’d be good to bake something with them before they started to perish.

Spring has arrived! Finally. I can barely recall a year that I’ve been more ready for spring than this year – and I think a lot of people will probably feel the same. Last week, I felt like baking something with fresh, spring-like flavours, and the first thing my mind always goes to in situations like […]

I don’t know about you, but I am one hundred percent ready for spring to arrive. Over the past week or so, we had wonderfully spring-like weather in the Netherlands and I even sat outside on my balcony reading in the sunshine last weekend! It was absolute bliss and it makes me long for more […]

On Friday, it was World Nutella Day (don’t ask me why I know these things…) so I was inspired to bake something with everyone’s favourite hazelnut spread! It ended up being a cookie pie – something I’d never made before but that’s always seemed like a great idea to try sometime. I was right! When I […]
