Homemade kefir bread rolls – quick, easy and delicious! Simple homemade white bread rolls made with plenty of kefir, which stay fresh even the next day :). I baked mine nestled closely together, but you can also shape them into individual
A wonderful layered cake, almost like a little celebration cake. A chocolate cake with peanut butter cream, flavoured with almond liqueur and salted peanuts, layered with blackcurrant jam and topped with crisp meringue. What more could you want?
Delicious rhubarb loaf cake. I called it a “loaf” because the addition of cinnamon and brown sugar, together with baking it in a loaf tin, makes it look a little more like a loaf. But it is, in fact, a delicious rhubarb cake. Moist, soft and wonderfully aromatic:

This rhubarb breakfast cake is a wonderful treat for breakfast, brunch, a picnic or any sweet start to the day. It’s a simple butter cake made with buttermilk, which gives it a beautifully soft and fluffy crumb, while a sprinkling of sugar before baking creates
This apricot and raspberry crumble cake is a fantastic fruit cake with a layer of creamy yoghurt and plenty of juicy summer fruit. The cake is baked in two stages: first, the sponge is partially baked on its own, then it’s topped with yoghurt, fruit and a cinnamon

It’s so good to be home! As much as I love travelling, there’s definitely a lot of truth in the saying, “There’s no place like home.” Do you know what I missed the most? Homemade pancakes! I made a batch almost as soon as we got back, once we’d restocked the
I’ll admit that after making drop scones, I was left wanting a little more. As good as they are, ordinary griddle cakes just aren’t my favourite. What I really love are pancakes! I’d never tried making them with pineapple before, and since it’s one of Pola’s
