  • Tri-Coloured Pancakes

    Tri-Coloured Pancakes

    I need more colour in my life! Enter – the tri-coloured banana pancakes. I don’t have any fancy food colourers like pitaya or blue spirulina (yet, that is) so I worked with blueberries and raspberries. And in the ones without added colour, I put chocolate chips. Just because I can, you know?.2 ripe bananas2 dl… Read more »


  • Pancake Platter

    Pancake Platter

    Once you pop, you can’t stop. Remember that slogan? Yep, that’s me in a nutshell. Now it’s platters this and platters that. I’m testing both my own and my children’s patience with these elaborate presentations. But I love doing it! I always need a creative outlet, and right now this is my favourite. Here are… Read more »


  • Chunky Monkey Granola

    Chunky Monkey Granola

    I haven’t made granola in ages, but when I saw this Chunky Monkey Granola from lovely @100kitchenstories I just had to make a batch. It’s so crunchy and full of flavour. Now I’ll enjoy this with soy or coconut yoghurt for a quick and easy breakfast. Here’s my take on the recipe, which means I… Read more »


  • Mango & Blackberry Smoothie Bowl

    Mango & Blackberry Smoothie Bowl

    Another smoothie bowl reminding me of lovely summer days. Mango with a blackberry swirl and fresh blackberries. I don’t know if the pattern is a subconscious way of expressing that I feel that I seem to be moving in circles… or just that I need to work on my swirl skills! Wishing you all a… Read more »


  • Chocolate PB Pancakes

    Chocolate PB Pancakes

    I’m glad this shot isn’t on video. Peanut butter dripping everywhere except where I wanted it to, bananas sliding off the hot pancakes, cacao powder going all over the place. Oh, the mess I made! And taking actions shots without a tripod, is not something I would recommend… But despite this kitchen chaos, the pancakes… Read more »


  • Pomegranate Fruit Platter

    Pomegranate Fruit Platter

    I think this will be my Saturday theme. It’s so much fun making these fruit platters, and it’s my secret weapon in the fight against candy for the kids. Featured this week is satsumas, pineapple, pear, kiwi, banana, pomegranate (which the kids eat by the spoonful) and cape gooseberry, according to Google translate. In Swedish,… Read more »


  • Strawberry Smoothie Bowl

    Strawberry Smoothie Bowl

    Anyone else already dreaming of next summer? I know, I’m hopeless. But I found this photo and wished the weather allowed for bowls like this. Just frozen banana and strawberries blended with a splash of oat milk and topped with redcurrants, pumpkin seeds, puffed quinoa and roasted coconut flakes. Those were the days! Read more »


  • Banana Pancakes with Berries

    Banana Pancakes with Berries

    How about a stack of banana pancakes to start this week off in the right mode? Topped with handpicked blackberries and blueberry & raspberry jam (called Queen’s jam in Swedish), and roasted pumpkin seeds, puffed quinoa and walnuts. My kids just wouldn’t stop eating. That’s the best compliment I can get! Ingredients3-4 very ripe bananas2… Read more »


  • Mango & Strawberry Smoothie Bowl

    Mango & Strawberry Smoothie Bowl

    Found this photo of a summery smoothie bowl that I hadn’t posted. Now I’m dreaming myself back to long, leisurely breakfasts, sunshine and warm days, the sea and beautiful evenings when the sun never sets. See, the good thing is that in my dreams summer is always perfect in every way! In this little bowl… Read more »


  • Porridge with Caramelised Banana

    Porridge with Caramelised Banana

    It’s definitely getting too cold for smoothie bowls in the morning now. Good thing that the alternative is really tasty too. I don’t like oat meal, so I make my porridge with rye instead. Then I add a heaped spoon of crunchy peanut butter and banana slices that I’ve quickly heated up in a pan… Read more »
