These Wholemeal Honey Cookies are very easy to make and they are a healthier option for your kids. They taste delicious… don’t you love sweets made with honey? I do! I love the taste honey gives to these cookies. They are great both for breakfast and tea time. They are the perfect recipe for when…
5 Minute Vanilla Cake
My eldest daughter turned 10 a couple of weeks ago! Yes, 10… double digits already! As her birthday fell during the winter school break, we decided to postpone her party to the following week. However, I couldn’t leave her without a cake on her birthday!! So, I made her this quick 5 Minute Vanilla Cake….
Peach Jam
Peach jam has always been a favourite of mine. If you have read my Apricot Jam Crostata post though, you may remember that I was complaining about the fact that I can’t find any at a normal supermarket. I have no idea why that is.
Chocolate Chip Buns
My kids love chocolate. I think most kids do, wouldn’t you agree? I had some chocolate chips I wanted to get rid of in my pantry, so I thought of making these Chocolate Chip Buns. They are perfect for breakfast, and even more so to give to kids to eat at school. I am always…
Dolci Pellegrino
Today I will share with you the recipe for Dolci Pellegrino, traditional lemon flavoured cookies from the city of Naples. Apparently these cookies, like many other Neapolitan and Sicilian sweets, were created by the nuns of a convent. These nuns were also helping out at the Pellegrini Hospital (thus the name) and would make these…
Nutella Dorayaki
If you follow me on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter you will know that I have been travelling through Japan! Unfortunately, we are now back home and trying to get readjusted to our usual routine. I will be sharing the details of my my trip as soon as I finish to sort out all the photos…
Biscotti della Tresca
I am very happy about today’s post. If you follow Manu’s Menu, you will know that this blog is all about authentic Italian food. I do share many modern Italian recipes, but what makes me really happy is the possibility to share more traditional not so famous recipes, and above all, regional recipes. Italian food…
Leftover Buttercream Cookies
I loooove today’s recipe: Leftover Buttercream Cookies! As you know, I hate to waste food and I love recipes that transform leftovers into new amazing dishes, and this one is a fantastic idea!
Pineapple Strawberry Apple Smoothie
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! We have eaten a lot, as usual, so today I am back with something light and healthy! I love smoothies and this Pineapple Strawberry Apple Smoothie is amazing. I love the flavour combination and I think pineapple makes for a great addition, especially in winter, as it adds…
Macine Cookies
Italians are not big on breakfast. Traditionally, we mainly have 2 kinds of breakfast and both of them are quite light (compared to the traditional full American breakfast with bacon and eggs): the one we have outside (al bar – at a café) and the one we have at home. At a café we usually…
Coffee Sables
I really love to bake cookies, especially this time of year. Yes, I know it’s hot in Australia and we do not get all the White Christmas vibes people in the Northern Hemisphere get right now, but I can still switch my oven own thanks to my air-con! So, I don’t give up baking cookies!…
Chestnut Bread Rolls
I love baking bread at home and what I like the most is experimenting with different flours and flavour combinations (remember my Spelt and Hazelnut Bread?). My absolute favourite bread still remains my quick Ciabatta, but these Chestnut Bread Rolls are a must-try addition to your holiday menu. Italians often use chestnuts in our cooking,…
Strawberry Milk
My daughters love Strawberry Milk. They still call it “pink milk” like when they were little and it is their favourite drink. As strawberries are in season here in Australia, I thought of making it at home. The result was amazing so, even though this is quite a simple recipe, I thought I should share…
Wholemeal Chapati
When I had to undergo surgery a couple of months ago, my mother in law came to stay with us to help out with the kids and spend some time with us. I was so happy she was able to come. It was great to have some company and to have someone to talk with…
Copycat Starbucks Banana Nut Bread
I don’t know about you, but I always have ripe bananas on my bench top! My kids have this annoying habit of insisting that I buy bananas for them and then they don’t want to eat them. And I never learn… Anyhow, thank God for banana bread! I really like having a slice of it…
Vietnamese Iced Coffee
Vietnamese Iced Coffee, or Cà phê đá, is a traditional Vietnamese coffee recipe. Coffee was introduced in Vietnam during the French rule and it quickly became a strong exporter of coffee. Cà phê đá is traditionally made using coarsely ground dark roast coffee individually brewed with a small metal French drip filter, mixed with condensed…
Eggless Chocolate Cake
Recently we celebrated my eldest daughter’s 9th birthday. We usually have a party at our place and I take care of the food (remember the Frozen theme?), but this year we had to do something a bit different. Due to my recent surgery, I was not able to organise the usual spread of food, so…
Ricotta Pancakes with Honey Butter
Autumn holidays are now over here in Sydney, but we had some fun in the past couple of weeks! One of the days, we decided to have brunch at home. My kids love pancakes. My eldest daughter calls herself the “pancake monster”, so you get the point. Truth is, I rarely make pancakes at home,…
Baked Nutella Iris
Today I will take you all to Sicily, once again! Sicilian street food is among the best food in the whole world. Besides, you can find everything: desserts, snacks, savoury treats and even pasta in street food form! I am not joking, it is that awesome. I would actually go as far as to say…
Yogurt Plumcake
Today I am going to share with you a recipe from my childhood. While growing up in Italy, the morning treats I liked the most were small yogurt plumcakes sold by a famous Italian brand. I am not sure how this cake got its name, being that there are no plums in it… but it…
Banana Milk
Today’s post is a special one. The recipe itself is so easy that I am not even sure it could be passed on as a “recipe” per se, but it is my eldest daughter favourite treat and she insisted I “put it on the blog”… so here it is. When I was a child, my…
Rosemary Pine Nut Sablés
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
