Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
  • 2 cups water or almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and water (or almond milk). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until quinoa is fluffy and liquid is absorbed.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in honey and vanilla extract, if using. Let it cool slightly.
  4. In serving glasses, layer the quinoa mixture, Greek yogurt, and fresh berries. Repeat the layers until the glasses are full.
  5. Top with a few additional berries and mint leaves for garnish. Serve immediately.

Notes

Storage: Keep the parfait ingredients separate and assemble just before serving to maintain freshness, especially the berries.

To enhance the flavors, consider toasting the quinoa lightly before cooking it; this will bring out a richer, nuttier taste. If you’re looking for a vegan option, substitute the yogurt with a plant-based alternative and use maple syrup instead of honey.

Feel free to mix and match the types of berries according to what’s in season or what you have on hand. This parfait can be stored in the fridge for up to two days, but it’s best enjoyed fresh for optimal texture and flavor. When serving, layer the parfait in clear glasses to showcase its beautiful colors!

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 4-5 tablespoons ice water
  • 2 cups fresh tomatoes, sliced
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add cubed butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  4. On a floured surface, roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Layer the sliced tomatoes over the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and chopped basil.
  6. Dot the tomatoes with crumbled feta cheese. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating it as you go.
  7. Brush the crust with beaten egg to give it a golden finish. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the tomatoes are tender.
  8. Allow to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!

Notes

Tip: For a savory twist, add some sliced olives or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for heat!

For the best results, use fresh, ripe tomatoes for maximum flavor. If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought pie crust instead of making your own.

Feel free to experiment with different herbs or cheeses — goat cheese also works beautifully in this galette! Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven for a crispy texture.

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender, finely chopped
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well mixed. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of each muffin liner to form a crust.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and honey until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the chopped lavender, eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the prepared crusts, filling each liner about 3/4 full.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle.

Notes

Tip: For a more intense lavender flavor, steep the lavender in the honey for a few hours before using it in the recipe.

For the best flavor, use culinary-grade lavender. If you can’t find honey, agave syrup makes a great substitute. You can also experiment with different toppings, such as fresh berries or a drizzle of chocolate.

To store, keep the cheesecake bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. They can also be frozen for longer storage; simply thaw in the fridge before serving.

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup softened butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9 inch baking pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt. Add softened butter and mix until crumbly.
  3. Press about two-thirds of the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form the crust.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, bourbon, vanilla, and egg until well combined.
  5. Stir in the chopped pecans and pour the mixture over the crust in the baking pan.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture on top of the pecan filling evenly.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set.
  8. Allow to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares and serving.

Notes

Tip: For an extra crunch, toast the pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant before adding them to the filling.

For the best flavor, use real maple syrup instead of pancake syrup, which can be overly sweet and artificial. If you’re looking to make these bars without bourbon, simply substitute it with additional maple syrup or vanilla extract for a non-alcoholic version.

Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. These bars can also be frozen for up to 3 months; just be sure to wrap them well in plastic wrap and foil.

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon limón zest

FOR THE FROSTING

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons limón juice
  • 1 teaspoon limón zest
  • 1 cup toasted coconut flakes for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and limón zest.
  4. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, shredded coconut, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with coconut milk. Mix until just combined.
  5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  6. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
  7. While the cakes are cooling, prepare the frosting by beating the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, coconut milk, limón juice, and limón zest, mixing until smooth and fluffy.
  8. Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving platter. Spread a layer of frosting on top, then place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake.
  9. Garnish the cake with toasted coconut flakes and additional limón zest if desired. Slice and serve at room temperature.

Notes

For a stronger coconut flavor: use sweetened coconut flakes in the frosting and cake for added sweetness.

For an extra burst of flavor, add lime zest to the cake batter and frosting. You can also swap out regular coconut milk for coconut cream for a richer texture.

Make sure to let the cake cool completely before frosting to prevent melting. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This cake also freezes beautifully; just wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil.
