Moist Honey Cake
This is a super soft and moist cake , with the rich flavour of honey. Honey and coffee , also give it a deep golden colour. I quite often bake it and refrigerate it, which enhances its flavour and can then be served at room temperature. I have also tried to steam ,...
Mushroom Stuffed Semolina Buns
Baking with semolina has always been on the cards but baking just plain rolls or buns was not exciting. Semolina is rich in protein, fiber, and B vitamins and Semolina flour has more flavour and protein than white flour . The flour can be made by just blitzing the...
Whole Wheat Garlic Bread

Whole wheat focaccia bread
Focaccia is such a delicious bread but also comes always with a whole lot of guilt because of the plain white flour it is made of. Here I have tried the focaccia with whole wheat flour and believe me , this is equally delicious. It has a nice crumbly texture and is...
