carrot bread rolls-1

20 Dec Carrot Bread Rolls

The longer I stay away from the blog, the more difficult it gets to start writing again. I don't know where to begin or what you want to read about. So for now you'll have to hear me ramble on about these fluffy carrot bread rolls which I made about a month ago... They're delicious and fluffy and perfect for autumn (I know it's christmas in just a few days, sorry...). Since christmas is just around the corner one could think that I’d be baking cookies and other sweet stuff for the holidays. However I live alone, and can’t possibly indulge in all the cookies by myself. So I’m baking bread instead.

Single serving soft sprouted spelt pretzel-28

30 Jun Single Serving Soft Sprouted Spelt Pretzel

My dad: Thea, are you making flour at 10 o'clock in the evening? Me: Yesss... I'm just feeding my sourdough starter... Me and my grain mill(ehmm.. my mum's grain mill) probably have a little too close relationship. I spend more time with it then a normal person should, especially considering I'm only 18. Seriously, how many 18 year olds make their own flours? Even when I feed my sourdough starters (yep, I got two. Did  I say I was 18?) I grind a small amount of flour solely for that purpose because I don't want to store old flour in my cupboards. Such a waste of nutrients when I have the possibility to have fresh flour 24/7.

rhubarb almond cake-21

24 May Rhubarb & Orange Almond Cake

Seriously, two rhubarb recipes in a row? Sorry... (Not really sorry) I just can't help it. If you read my last post you'll know how much I love rhubarb and I can assure you that this will not be the last rhubarb recipe for awhile. Another thing I love is a cake with a nice and golden crumb. If you're anything like me(loves rhubarb and golden crumbs) you'll love this cake. The base consists of almond flour which makes it super moist and fluffy. The buckwheat flour adds a nice flavor and lightness to the cake and the corn starch gives it a nice crumb. Add rhubarb stalks for tartness, orange zest for a subtle citrus flavor, flaked almonds and a sprinkle of raw cane sugar on the top for some extra crunch. Then you've got your early summer dream cake.
