Lemon flavored braided mandazi

A snack enjoyed by many homes in East Africa. Balanced meal and simple in preparation. An inspiration from the Swahili culture

Mandazis are Kenyan local dishes which are perfect for breakfast accompanied by a cup of tea. They can also be taken with other food like beef stew.

These sweet tasting ‘beignets’ are a very common Swahili dish flavoured with sweet fennel and cardamom seeds.#mycookbook

Its a snack originally from the coastarians

From my sister and I

My son did a diversity/heritage project for school. He needed to take something to school that is from his families homeland. Being that he is 50% German, we chose this. *Note* These were not made in the classic shape.

My son loves this cornbread recipe that he got at school. So, we have this every time we have Chilli or soup beans.

mum loves making this for every occasion

Being a working mom I'm always looking for ways to short cut my cooking and baking times. This is easy to prepare and while its baking leaves time to help the kids with homework :)

My grandson loves to cook with me and also loves playing with his play dough. I wanted a cookie like his play dough so he could enjoy it with me. The first time we did this he placed the cookies on the cookie sheet and said "easy peasy!" For a 3 year old it was a hit.

Hello!!! I am finally done with painting part of the house. I discovered that some walls need to be wallpapered, and not painted. To be able to paint them I would have to start from the very basic rules, and since I am not a professional painter I decided to wallpaper them.While searching the internet, I came across so many designs, I had no idea that wallpaper was back in style!!! this will definitely give the walls a great look instead of just paint. I chose a few designs and expecting to receive them in the next few days.It was time for me to choose a recipe, so I sat around looking at the many different recipes I have and could not choose one that I really wanted to make…:) So, don’t laugh I actually did a “Eeny meeny miny moe” funny hahahahaha and this wonderful Almond Cake was chosen as the lucky recipe.

It is so so hard to get a picture of something before someone eats it!

We always make these at the beach. Left overs and great for a snack - just add a little peanut butter.

This is on of the best bread I have ever eaten and it's so easy and fancy looking! Definitely a win.

Desert is a passion, and when I'm with my bros we're always looking for a great snack and it led me to make cookies from scratch

This recipe is common in our country, it serve occasionally, snack, breakfast, or dessert. this one is my favorite foodie, and also my kids they love it too.

My son super loves bananas so we always have them in the pantry. To avoid wastage of over-riped bananas, I decided to make one of my favorite.

I was invited to Easter brunch and decided to try this easy quick bread recipe for the first time. I sampled it before I brought it to the party, and I can confidently say that it’s tasty (and stayed moist with a tender texture even though I used the wrong sized pan. Whoops.)This is from averiecooks.com with some modification.

I always make these cookies for family get togethers and they're always a hit!

This is my first time with brownie, I know it has “a little” fail 😄 Anyway, I still share this recipe because my son said “So yummy!” and he ate 3 at same time. Nom nom nom <3

My 4 year old loves bananas so I always have them on hand. Sometimes they ripen faster than he eats them. I had some very ripe bananas the other day so I decided to make banana bread. Now, I'm not a baker so I had to Google some recipes to get an idea of what to do and I can't believe my 1st attempt came out perfect! This banana bread isn't too sweet and has a good banana flavor. You can omit the cocoa or the walnuts if you prefer and it'll still be delicious.

family always loves these!!! :chef

My 6 year old son is a picky eater. He only eats brocolli, cauliflower and carrot. And he doesn't like meat but luckily, he loves fish.

I love pumpkin and zucchini bread so I decided to mix the recipes. I am a foodie....so I love baking and trying new things.

I tried Braided lemon bread by using Homemade Lemon curd by omitting All purpose flour. I took Chiroti Rava / fine semolina and loved it. Here, I have used oil, instead of butter and felt, butter is an ultimate option.I have made it a couple of times with a few changes here and there and it’s a huge hit at home#breads#goldenapron 14th recipe Date: 5th June 2019

A creation which came about due to a desperate need for something different and delightful.
