Do you also crave a Monday Muffin? Banana muffins are easy and fast to make and sooo delicious. I often find that over-ripe bananas are a perfect excuse to bake a cake. Over-ripe bananas are great in cakes because they are easy to mash, full of sugar, and doesn’t really work as a raw snack…
Another recipe inspired by the 100-year-old Danish recipe book I read this summer. I found this recipe for lemon nuts pretty exciting when I stumpled upon it. I imagine that your eat them during the winter / for Christmas (like “pebernødder”), but I’m not sure. In the recipe, they used quite a lot of deer…
This dessert is eaten as the dessert at Christmas Eve in Denmark (that’s when we celebrate Christmas). There will be one whole almond in the dish. The guest, who finds it in his/her dessert gets a present – but they are not allowed to tell that they have it before all the dessert has been…
Happy 4th Sunday of Advent! During my summer vacation I went through a 100 years old Danish pastry cook book. One of the recipes in the book was this vanilla wreath (which I assume is a Christmas cookie). I have altered the recipe so that it is vegan (by using plant based milk and butter)….
You might remember my oat balls from last year’s Christmas with apricot and orange. This year, I’m trying coffee and cranberries. And I’ve also been experimenting with making these without the use of conventional or vegan butter. This has been quite a struggle, since butter is a large part of the dessert. But I settled…
It’s first advent today. I’ll be celebrating eating these delicious vegan snowballs. They are super easy and fast to make, too. You can buy these snowballs in the supermarkets in Denmark during Christmas. However, I find that they are much more delicious when homemade (probably because I use more marcipan and less sugar than the…
Here’s a new slightly modified version of my chocolate chip cookies, this time with Nutella! If you don’t want to buy or have vegan hazelnut/chocolate spread, then regular spread works as well (e.g. Nutella). The longer you bake these, the more the spread will soak into the cookies. Consequently, you wont have a soft middle…
I put for what is probably about a year ago a recipe up on the blog for delicious Danish “træstammer”. This is a vegan updated, which is very similar to the old “regular” recipe. “Træstammer” is a traditional Danish cake, which you can buy in almost every bakery. The name directly translated is “lodge”. It…
Peanutbutter cookies are one of my favorite type of cookie. And I have therefore made a vegan version of my favorit recipe for them. They taste just as good as “regular” cookies. However, they might be a little more dry when you don’t use eggs, so make sure to accompanying them with a beverage! It…
Cute small ghosts, perfect for halloween. These are very similar to the Danish cake “træstammer”. The cake is pretty easy to make, however, it does require a lot of time, since you first have to make the filling, then the buttercream, and then put it all together.
