Today is World Diabetes Day – I guess serving you a sugar-free and low-carb cake today makes sense, right? ;) All out there that need to cut back on sugar or just want to reduce their sugar intake a bit, this delicious Apple Cake is the cake to make. Who needs that white devilish stuff if you can enjoy sweet stuff without it? ;P
It’s official – we are in a second lockdown here in Germany. Well… not a complete lockdown. You can still go out, meet with a few people, go to work, go shopping… nothing compared to other countries I guess. Restaurants are closed though. This means that in the next few weeks there will be more cooking and baking happening at home. If you want to improve your baking skills while staying at home, you can try making this Pumpkin Apple Bread – another delicious and easy lockdown bake.
Muffins are the “boring” siblings of cupcakes, some people say. This is, of course, absolute nonsense ;) Apple Pie Streusel Muffins like these here are super delicious and can easily compete with any decorated cupcake… At least that’s what I think. If you have a different opinion here, you better go to the back of the room in that corner to your left and think about what’s wrong with you… just kidding! You can think about it right where you are sitting/standing ;P
“An apple strudel a day keeps the doctor away”, right?! Probably not. If you eat an Apple Strudel Cake like this one each day you are probably dead in no time… but it would be a happy death for sure ;P Just kidding! Today is “Apple Strudel Day” in the US and I had to celebrate that day, of course. Not necessarily with the original apple strudel but with my version, as you can see here…
Happy Apple Pie Day! Yeah… not an actual holiday here in Germany, but still a good reason to celebrate ;) Where I come from (Southern Germany) late summer and autumn are the time to bake apple cakes and pies – Americans celebrate their favorite pastry featuring apples in May. I’m fine with that – every day is a good day for an apple pie. So today I got an absolute classic for you: a Good Old Apple Pie aka. American Apple Pie. Grab a plate and fork and we can get started…
Today is the “Day of the German Apple”. You did not know that? Well… probably not. Neither did I up until several weeks ago ;) To celebrate this special day I a serving you a delicious Apple Cheesecake with Almond Topping. Sounds good, right? It was a coincidence that this “holiday” is on this day and that I had some apples at home to make this great cheesecake for you. Really… ;)
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
