Brown butter, cinnamon and espresso weave bread
Bread is one of the things I really love to make and eat. I love to knead dough, watch it rise and make something with it. When I saw one of the gorgeous breads my friend Betty from stemsandforks made, the idea for this bread popped up in my mind. This bread has all...

Angel food cake with apple, crumble and a brown sugar meringue buttercream
The sun is shining and feels nice and warm again. I can go outside without freezing my toes of and the birds are singing the whole day. Our dog jumps and runs like he's a puppy again and the chickens are taking sand baths again (if you never seen it, you should google...
Raspberry and rose tart with ricotta cheese
I'm not a real Valentines day person. Not that I'm not romantic, but I think it's a bit overrated. I mean, I was in the flower shop last week (last week! One week before Valentines day) and the roses I usually buy were 3 times more expensive than normally. I mean...

Oreo macarons
The story behind my relationship with macarons is complicated. First, we loved each other. The first time we met was in Paris and it was love at first bite. When I came home I was so in love, I couldn't get enough so I tried to make them myself. I don't know what it...
Mascarpone chocolate cake with caramel poached pears
Chocolate and pears are a match made in heaven. To me it's the same as raspberries and white chocolate or salt and caramel. I used mascarpone in this cake to make it even richer than it already is. I don’t know if it’s a typical dutch thing, but we eat poached pears...
Strawberry and raspberry ice cream
I don't mind if it's freezing cold outside, I can always eat ice cream. The only difference in summer is that I eat ice cream sometimes even two times a day and in winter two times a week. I always had a special place for ice cream in my heart. The difference now is...
Vegan salted caramel and chocolate tarts
So much recipes in a week.. A promise is a promise! I don't want to forget my vegan followers. So, for now a vegan recipe. I was so surprised about the taste! I never made a vegan caramel, but I love caramel so much I couldn't imagine it wasn't possible without cream....
