This traditional Polish boiled lemon mazurek is light as sponge cake, slightly chewy, with a texture similar to a macaron, intensely lemony and wonderfully old-fashioned. It’s the kind of Easter mazurek that’s rarely baked nowadays, so I wanted to
A timeless apricot classic – honey-roasted apricots with flaked almonds. Soft, lightly caramelised fruit paired with crunchy toasted almonds makes for an effortlessly elegant dessert. If you like, drizzle the apricots with a little Amaretto before baking

These delicious gluten-free gingerbread cookies are made with homemade oat flour, simply by grinding gluten-free rolled oats. There’s no need to buy a special gluten-free flour blend – you’ll probably already have everything you need in your kitchen!
It’s amazing how delicious this plum butter is! The addition of the zest and juice of one orange per 1 kg of plums works absolute magic. I cooked the plum butter over two days, without using any gelling agents. It retained its beautiful deep plum colour
A gluten-free brownie with millet as its main ingredient. The health benefits of millet have long been appreciated – it supports healthy digestion, helps the body eliminate toxins and has warming properties. It’s also rich in valuable nutrients, including silica

Do you like kiwi? In our house, opinions are rather divided. 🙂 I’m not a fan of peeling the fuzzy skins, although I certainly appreciate how much vitamin C these little fruits contain. My husband loves anything tart, Pola is allergic to kiwi, and Wiktoria enjoys them
What makes the perfect chocolate soufflé? It should be delicate and light, with the texture of a chocolate mousse. Moist, but not runny (this is not a chocolate lava cake). They say that if you place a teaspoon into the centre, it should slowly sink under its own weight…
A simple recipe for wonderfully creamy no-churn ice cream. The ice cream base takes just 3 minutes to prepare, provided you already have a batch of fruit curd chilling in the fridge. Raspberry curd is my favourite, but lemon curd, passion fruit curd, lime curd, orange curd, blackcurrant
The original recipe calls these “Snickers”, but in our opinion they don’t really taste like the famous chocolate bars. Instead, they’re wonderfully nutty bars—sweet, satisfying, slightly chewy, with a lovely crunch from the cornflakes.
These are the best coconut macaroons in the world! Crisp on the outside, wonderfully soft in the middle, and incredibly quick to make. I can’t recommend this recipe highly enough.
Summer is in full swing, which means it’s time to dust off the ice cream maker! Stracciatella ice cream takes its name from stracciatella mozzarella, the creamy filling inside burrata, and from a traditional egg-drop soup from the Rome region, where beaten eggs form delicate,
A whole new take on apricot jam! This apricot and raspberry jam captures the very taste of summer – one you’ll definitely want to preserve in jars :). Its flavour is simply irresistible, and I first fell in love with this combination in my apricot
