I have granola with yoghurt for breakfast every single morning and although I think my go-to storebought version is very tasty, I also predict it’s not going to taste the same after I get used to this homemade granola! Granola is very simple to make, and the fun thing is that you can customise it […]

It’s nearly Christmas and it’s going to be a weird one this year. The Netherlands went into its second lockdown last week, and many other parts of the world aren’t doing much better either. I’m fortunate enough to still be able to celebrate Christmas with my loved ones (within the government guidelines) and I’m really […]

Winter is such a great time for baking! I love warm, cosy bakes that are delicious but don’t require too much effort and winter seems like the perfect time for that. Last weekend, I wanted to bake something with cranberries, since they are in season again and I rarely bake with them, and then I […]

Any fans of the TV show Friends out there? There must be, because there don’t seem to be many people left who haven’t at least watched a few episodes of the show. It used to be my absolute favourite TV show for years, and I know all of the episodes pretty much by heart. So, […]

I’ve been all about autumn for these past few weeks, but this week my bakes have had a distinctly summery feel to them. I made lemon curd for the first (and second) time in my life! Lemon curd is one of my favourite fillings or spreads for pretty much everything – scones, macarons, cakes, croissants. […]

September is upon us and I don’t know about you, but I’m fully ready for autumn! Summer has never been my favourite season and now that they’re getting hotter (hello, climate change), I’m even less of a fan (no pun intended). One of the big downsides of hot summers: it’s way too hot in my […]

Remember when I made a blueberry crumble for two a few weeks ago? Or maybe it was a few months ago – in my mind it’s still April; a global pandemic really messes with your sense of time, doesn’t it? Anyway, back to the crumble. It was such a delicious, easy dessert and a great […]
