Are you on team muffins or team cupcakes? Personally I prefer unfrosted muffins with a classic domed muffin top to cupcakes, which can be quite sugary sweet and unhealthy, though much more decorative and prettier. You can add nuts, seeds, fruits or other mix-ins to make muffins really interesting and less guilty. The batter of these muffins come together really quickly. However, I decided to make these muffins with creaming method, so the texture is much more airy and lighter, and add a coconut macaroon top, just for fun and extra chew. If you want to use muffin-method (combine the dry and wet ingredients separately, then combine them), you definitely can.

This nutty fruity crumb cake is perfect for brunch, as a dessert or an afternoon pick-me-up. They are scrumptious by themselves, with some clotted cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Instead of butter, I used tahini to make the streusel, and sweetened the whole cake with a mix of date syrup and erythritol. If you want to make this gluten free, replace white spelt flour with oat flour.

These rye cookies are soft and gooey in the center, and crunchy around the edges. The dough uses a combination of medium rye flour and plain flour. Rye flour has a nutty, earthy, and characteristic malty taste that brings out the best in ingredients like chocolate, butter and warm spices. The low-gluten of rye gives these cookies a delicate and unique chewy texture that’s hard to beat. It also absorbs more water, making these cookies very moist and tender. Use dark chocolate or other dried fruit if you wish.

Chocolate cake is probably on many hobby bakers' must-make list. But if a simple chocolate cake isn’t interesting enough for you, you can simply pimp up the cake recipe with a few fruits - for example with delicious blueberries. This chocolate blueberry cake is so quick and easy to make! The super moist sponge with chocolate tastes so delicious with fresh berries. It is perfect at any time of year, but especially in summer when the blueberries are at their juiciest. However, the cake also works perfectly with other seasonal fruit or alternatively with dried fruit. This cake is a hit at any party, over a cosy coffee with friends and family or as the highlight of a festive brunch. Fresh blueberries bring freshness and antioxidants to the cake, while dark chocolate adds that little something extra.
Puddingbrezeln – Vanilla Pudding Pretzels

Puddingbrezel, Puddingteilchen, or Vanilleplunder is a sweet pretzel variant enormously popular in Germany, especially in the Rhineland. The Danish pastry is twisted into a pretzel and then filled with plenty of homemade vanilla pudding and crumbled raspberries. Feel free to use other types of fruit. After baking, it is glazed with apricot jam, just like from the bakery. Or maybe even better than from the bakery. Enjoy them as a snack, breakfast or serve them as a side dish with coffee.
Danish pastry is made from yeast leavened dough, so it’s slightly different from the yeast-free puff pastry. The key step in the production process is to incorporate the butter into the dough by folding it in and repeatedly folding and rolling it out. This process forms countless thin layers that rise during baking and create a crispy, airy structure. It is a bit more time-consuming, but I promise you, it's so worth it.

Make the most of fresh seasonal produce with this easy, but scrumptious spring salad. If you haven’t tried pairing fruit with your salad before, you are missing out. Seasonal fruits add not only colour, but also right amount of sweetness and texture to an otherwise boring green salad. Feel free to substitute baby spinach with other leafy greens.
Godnkipferl – Austrian Easter Crescent

A Godnkipferl is a super soft, fluffy brioche crescent in a large format (as long as 50cm and thick as an upper arm). The Godnkipferl / Godparents Crescent, aka Osterkipferl / Easter Crescent, is a pastry with a long tradition: in some parts of Upper Austria, godparents give their godchildren this oversized brioche crescent at Easter. They are usually braided, either with three, four or six strands and sprinkled with pearl sugar. However, you can also just simply roll the dough, with or without sultanas, into a long roll, then form into a crescent.
Date and Rye Bread

Making rye bread at home can seem a little intimidating because sticky heavy rye dough is fussy and more challenging to work with due to its weak gluten, but really there is no need for it with this easy date and rye bread recipe which used just 30% of rye. The dough is a bit sticky, but don’t compensate for the stickiness by adding more flour during kneading or you would end up with a dry and hard bread. Keep a bowl of cold water handy for dipping your hands in, rather than adding more flour to the dough if you are going to hand-knead the dough. Towards the end of kneading, you can also oil your hands to keep the dough from sticking to your hands. The wholegrain rye flour and sweet dates are a perfect pairing and this crusty dark loaf goes brilliantly with some aged cheese or simply slathered with butter.

Whether as a snack between meals, with an afternoon coffee or as an office treat: these apricot oat slices taste great and are a delight! They are easy to transport and can also be made in advance as they stay fresh in the fridge for several days. Conveniently, you don't need to use the oven, just chill them. Oat flakes, dried apricots, coconut flakes and almond meal are not only filling but also nutritious. A silky coating of Lindt white chocolate provides the fun gourmet factor. The subtly hot and fruity chilli thread are the perfect addition to elevate chocolate taste, adding a delightful kick to each bite.

These crispy bulgur kebabs with a fruity, spicy and sweet mango dip - delicious, quick and easy to prepare! I used fine spelt bulgur from DM drugstore, but you can use regular bulgurs from durum or red wheat. Carob syrup is made from the pods of the carob tree and characterised by its rich, dark colour, similar to molasses, and has a fruity, sweet flavour. It is low in fat, high in fibre, and packed with minerals. If you can’t find carob syrup, then simply use molasses instead.
