Caramelized spiced nuts
The New Year is running already and we only have the eleventh of January! Last year was so eventful, this blog grew so much and I got to meet some really great people. Towards the end of 2016 Spicebar hosted a nut challenge to which, despite all the pre-Christmas stress I simply couldn’t say no. […]
Banana Bread with Dates and Walnuts
Happy New Year! Having wallowed in gluttony for the last months it’s probably time to consume salad and tea only for the upcoming weeks. It’s time to glower at the box with white flour and refined sugar and banish them to the back row in the cabinet. In short – we’re gonna detox all those […]
Stuffed Seitan Roast in Puff Pastry
Well then, are you enjoying a tranquil, stress-free Christmas season? Me neither. Work, present preparations and many other duties collide with the Christmas anticipation. There’s only Christmas in my kitchen currently and that’s only because I have a blog to fill and feel like I have to.
The best chocolate chip cookies of all time
Geez, that’s so typical me. After promising you to share my recipe for the best cookies ever it takes me more than a week to finally deliver. But finally, after a weekend in Hanover and one weekend in Munich it’s finally online! 🙂
Fanta Cake with mandarins & sour cream
Some cakes accompany your whole life. Just like this fanta cake with mandarins and sour cream which couldn’t be missing at any childhood birthday party ever. Next to my all time favourite fanta cake my grandma also had to bake my second favourite cake called ‘Eat-till-you-go-nuts’ a very heavy cake with vanilla pudding, chocolate and […]

Listen up: A vegan quiche with green asparagus, scallions, wild garlic and dried tomatoes. This was the first quiche I’ve ever prepared by myself and I succeeded […]
Colorful carrots with a sesame dressing
Hello everybody! Easter is fast approaching. To me it’s usualy just a weekend like any other weekend. But this Easter is also the first one with my blog online, so I thought I should share at least an Easter recipe with you. The question was, what could I possibly prepare. As I don’t often work […]
Stuffed Sweet Potato with spinach & feta
I have a thing for stuffed vegetable, let it be egg plant, zucchini, peppers and even mushrooms. It is such a convenient, comforting food that satisfies even the meat lovers (well, sometimes we fill it with ground pork, but even without it, they are happy… I guess).
Curry with Sweet Potatoes and Chickpeas
Ever been in the following situation? You visit a party with a slightly large number of people and while one goes to the washroom, another quickly goes to the coat check while another one meets an acquaintance or leaves for a smoke. And before you know it you spend the rest of the night trying […]
