I haven’t had a cake quite like this in a long time. It’s difficult to place it neatly into just one category. It’s naturally gluten-free, with ground almonds taking the place of flour, contains no baking powder, and includes ricotta, which gives it a texture reminiscent
A wonderfully crumbly oat slice packed with sweet summer strawberries and plenty of rolled oats. The oats absorb excess fruit juices, creating a rich, flavourful filling and a perfectly textured crumble. Simple, comforting and bursting with strawberry flavour
As a farewell to pumpkin season… delicious muffins made with pumpkin purée and apple. Like little pieces of brownie :). Moist, soft and filled with juicy chunks of apple. It is impossible to stop at just one. Covered with a chocolate glaze, they stay fresh for
Today, something simple and muffin-inspired. I’m not entirely sure what made these muffins so special, but everyone absolutely loved them. They stay fresh for a surprisingly long time and somehow seem to taste even better with each passing day.
Lemon poppy seed muffins are among my all-time favourites. Refreshing, intensely lemony, wonderfully fragrant and beautifully fluffy, they are hard to resist. Don’t be put off by the addition of poppy seeds – there are only 2 teaspoons in the entire
Wonderfully milky cookies that are lightly crisp, soft in the centre and taste a little like miniature sponge cakes. Perfect for children! Although they are quite sweet, they are truly delicious and can easily be packed into a lunchbox for those last summer days at school
These lemon courgette muffins are unbelievably delicious! Intensely lemony, topped with a bright lemon glaze and wonderfully moist thanks to the courgette, they stay fresh for days while remaining perfectly light and fluffy. Without a doubt, they are some of the
These wholemeal oat and chocolate cookies are truly perfect. Packed with oats—so many, in fact, that you probably would not guess just how much oatmeal they contain from the taste alone. And, of course, there is plenty of chocolate. They are among our all-time favourites
Chocolate cupcakes made from the same mayonnaise-enriched batter you may already know from chocolate layer cakes. Enhanced with fruit, these cupcakes are wonderfully moist, rich and intensely chocolatey. Because the sponge is quite delicate, it works
A cake that still smells of summer… And it does not even matter if you think you do not like desiccated coconut — here, even coconut sceptics will enjoy it. The recipe author herself, Nigella Lawson, calls it a “Bounty cake”, which should already be recommendation enough :).
A wonderfully old-fashioned English walnut cake with coffee buttercream. One of my English friends bakes it for every important occasion, including Christmas. I still remember when she brought this cake to school for a festive gathering — everyone would come
A quick, refreshing and light cake with lemon mousse made with kefir or buttermilk, topped with peaches and jelly. In my kitchen it goes by the name “Cytrynka”(Little Lemon), though you can easily make it in your favourite flavour — how about a raspberry or blueberry
Apricot and raspberry crumble is one of those wonderfully simple desserts with an absolutely irresistible flavour. Apricots and raspberries work beautifully together — you simply have to try this combination this summer! And when you add the perfect buttery crumble topping
I absolutely love tangy desserts — the sharper, the better! And these lemon and rhubarb muffins are exactly that kind of treat. Sweet yet pleasantly tart, filled with plenty of rhubarb and finished with a crisp sugar topping. They’re wonderfully soft, rise beautifully
Molasses cookies are crisp on the outside, soft and slightly sticky in the centre, with a deep, distinctive molasses flavour and aroma. I don’t use molasses much during the year, but in the winter and festive season I simply can’t resist it. It’s become a bit of a ritual
A wonderfully moist orange cake with cranberries and pistachios – a bit like a cranberry loaf cake. Fragrant with orange zest and finished with a simple orange icing. It’s incredibly quick to make – just like muffins, you simply mix everything together. It keeps fresh
Soft, lemony yoghurt muffins bursting with juicy raspberries. Quick to make, wonderfully fluffy, and absolutely packed with flavour – perfect for raspberry season!
These indulgent muffins come from Nigella Lawson’s book How to Be a Domestic Goddess, where they appear in the children’s baking section. Intensely Snickers-like, sweet, and filled with the aroma of peanuts and peanut butter – they’re a dream for any Snickers
