This scrumptious tart is a delightful combination of tastes and textures. Golden, flaky puff pastry is topped with flavourful tomato pesto, a medley of roasted vegetables and melty mozzarella – it’s the perfect union of crunch and flavour. Are you hungry yet?
After being battered by storms and making it through a bitterly cold winter it seems to be safe to come out again and enjoy the outdoors. We tend to go into hibernation over the winter, but now that the sunshine is back we’re looking forward to more get-togethers with friends and entertaining at home.
I had to play around with this recipe a few times to get it just right, and I’m so glad I persevered because these ginger and dark chocolate bars are absolutely delicious! They’re chewy and oaty with a tasty hint of ginger. The dark chocolate layer at the bottom finishes them off perfectly. I would definitely classify these as a treat snack, and they are rather lovely as an afternoon pick-me-up.
Home made nut butter is one of the easiest things to make, you can play around with add ins and you have full control over what goes into it. Peanuts, almonds and hazelnuts are my nut butter go-to’s, but lately I’ve been playing around with macadamia nut butter and created a recipe that is next level delicious, I’m obsessed!
We are obsessed with stone fruit at the moment, especially plums. If only their season could be longer! We’ve been enjoying peaches, plums, mangoes and cherries in all sorts of recipes but mostly straight from the fridge – such an easy and delicious snack, especially when it’s hot outside. The end of season is fast approaching, and I wanted to get a quick plum recipe in before that happens.
What do you do when you find a jar of molasses at the back of the pantry? You grab your apron and whip up some ginger cookies! I love the depth of flavour that molasses adds to ginger flavoured bakes. I’ve also used muscovado sugar and crystallised ginger in this recipe and the resulting flavour is incredible.
The holiday season is on the horizon (are you counting the days like me?) and that means there’ll be lots of gatherings coming up. This latest recipe is perfect for entertaining and I hope you’ll love it as much as I do. Besides tasting great this snacky delight is also something that you can whip up relatively quickly. The crackers can be baked in advance and the feta can be whipped in minutes, so there’s no last minute stressing just before your guests arrive.
