Desserts
Walnut and Raisin Cookies / Treats
Walnuts are amazingly healthy and are sometimes called the "heart's seat belt" because of their heart protective qualities. They are also good for our brain.
Vanilla Mousse
When I was a kid I never used to like the mousse you could buy in the shops.
Cinnamon Cookies
These are my favourite cinnamon cookies. There is absolutely nothing that announces the arrival of Christmas more clearly than the aroma of these baking in the oven.
Maple Syrup and Vanilla Cookies
These are absolutely perfect for Christmas, especially if you cut them into fun shapes such as stars, snowflakes, snowmen or whatever reminds you of the festive season.
Banana Patties
These patties are gluten free, dairy free and nut free. They are perfect if you have over ripe bananas lying around.
Peanut Butter
There is something deeply satisfying about making your own peanut butter.
Berry and Rhubarb Ice Lollies
These lollies are as colourful as they are healthy. They are layered and I always like layered colours in food because it is fun to look at and gives you a mini selection of different tastes.
Oatmeal and Jam Cake (Wedded Bliss Cake)
This cake is called Hjónabandssæla (Wedded Bliss Cake) in Iceland and is very popular in most households. It is similar to the Austrian Linzertorte.
Warm Blueberry and Vanilla Sauce
I absolutely love this sauce. It is so good with everything. I use it on pancakes, waffles, on ice cream, in milk shakes and whatever I think goes well with blueberries.
Rhubarb Muffins
When I have a lone jar of something in the fridge, like a jar of rhubarb jam staring at me for a very long time, I kind of become obsessed thinking about ways to use it.
