Macadamia Nuts are native to Australia and this delicious slice is very popular. If it is difficult to find Macadamia Nuts where you live, you can use other Nuts such as Cashews, Walnuts OR Pecans, but the slice wouldn’t taste the same. Smaller OR broken Macadamia Nuts are less expensive and they are perfect for this slice.

These bars are quick and easy to make and the variations of nuts,seeds and dried fruit are almost endless. My favourite combination includes pistachios, dried cranberries and pumpkin seeds.

There is a traditional Japanese sweet snack called ‘Karinttō’ which I love always. It’s a deep-fried sweet biscuit sticks coated with unrefined dark brown sugar same as muscovado. I have never made ‘Karinttō’ but this easy-to-make ‘Muscovado Coated Nuts’ are even tastier than ‘Karintō’ and healthier. However, I always make a small amount at a time because it is so hard to stop eating.

I like a bit of sweetness with my spice, but not too much, and this recipe, inspired by Yotam Ottolenghi's, gets just the right balance. You can add more honey, or a sprinkle of sugar for extra crunch if you prefer a sweeter result. This is so much more economical than buying spiced nuts, and way nicer too!

Orange and nuts go well together. New start to the month, decided to bake cake. Made it for my friends. Morning tea and cake who doesn’t love 😋😊. Easy and quick baking.

This recipe is Vegan with a Gluten-free option available, and contains no added sugar and only plant-based fats. It can be made all year round as a meat-free Sunday roast alternative. It's not just for Christmas!

If you can’t have any ingredients, use alternatives! That’s how I have been inventing new food. When I tried to make ‘Shiso’ flavoured miso paste and couldn’t find 'Shiso', I used fresh Basil leaves. Thinking of ‘Pesto Genovese’, I used Pine Nuts instead of Walnuts. OMG!!! Miso, Basil and Pine Nuts created a new flavour. What would you use this paste for?

The other day, when I was making Caramel to make ‘Coffee Creme Caramel’, I realised that I could make ‘Almond Toffee’ much easier. I usually cook Butter and Sugar together until the mixture turns brown, but I could cook just Sugar first, then add Butter and Almonds. I tried to make ‘Almond Toffee’ in that way and the result was almost the same. It was easier and quicker. Today I used Roasted Walnuts instead of Almonds, and it was also delicious. You might wish to double this recipe, but I recommend not to make a lot because this Toffee is actually quite dangerous. High in calories and very hard to stop eating it.

This one was a birthday cake present for a friend. She loves chocolate and nuts. I was like: chocolate cake or nuts cake, it was a difficult decision. And then click! Why not use the two in one? So I made the irresistible combination of carrot cake with chocolate cover and the final ingredient, nuts.

#sababutt#saladsI was feeling bored and hungry at the same time I’ve looked into my fruit basket then my mind was rushed to create some rainbow 🌈 bowl with fruit and nuts & turned over this deliciousness at last but not least for some yummy treat I’m in love with my own creations for sure 😋😋

When I first made Blondies, I used my ‘Brownies‘ recipe and I simply replaced Dark Chocolate with White Chocolate. It didn’t work. White Chocolate version became too wet. You would definitely need more Flour. Today I added Macadamia Nuts, that are native to Australia. You can use other nuts such as Walnuts, Almonds OR Pistachios. But Nuts are optional.

Another healthy breakfast I tried and it was lovely with the crunchy broken mixed nuts. Really nice. #breakfast

Two of my biggest challenges when it comes to muesli are the lower sugar ones are often full of nuts (I have a nut allergy) and the nut free ones are often filled with sweet fruits and are really high in sugar. This has left me with no option but to take matters into my own hands. So, I’ve come up with this mix which I’m pretty pleased with. If you do need something sweeter, you could add some honey or maple syrup but I normally eat mine with yogurt which has its own sweetness so this is just right. You could also swap any of the ingredients for different dried fruit, nuts, seeds, anything really.

I finally put science into baking! The golden ratio is 2:2:1:1 for flour:liquid:eggs:fatTry to make your own ingredients combination using this ratio and let me know how it turns out 😉Exchangeable ingredients:Dates syrup to Maple syrup or honeyApple sauce to melted butterRead more about the ratio here:https://thelilycafe.com/a-quick-guide-to-ratio-baking-muffins/

Home-made pesto is SO MUCH NICER than the commercial ready-made ones, and it is SO EASY to make!!!! I first made it in Florence during a family holiday years ago, and haven't stopped since. You can make a big batch and store for the week to use in all sorts of recipes. Pesto isn't only great with pasta - it also works really well in stuffed jacket potatoes, as a sauce for french beans, a spoonful in tomato soup gives the soup a fabulous tasty turn, and a teaspoon in home-made guacamole is a worthy substitute for fresh coriander... My sons even like eating my pesto spread generously on warm toast. Tradutional pesto sauce uses pine nuts but actually other nuts work really well too, especially cashews becauae their sweetness combines beautifully with the peppery and intense flavour of fresh basil. Keeps well in the fridge for a week.
