It is the season for those lovely red carrots! Which means lots of carrot desserts 🙂 I usually end up baking a classic carrot cake or simple carrot muffins, but this time I decided to switch things up by trying a gluten free version, loaded with walnuts and chocolate chips. And oh my god! It is so good!
This is my favourite cake to bake this time of year. It’s chocolatey, boozy, soft and delicious! Perfect festive cake and just feels very Christmassy to me 🙂
What is love for citrus in baking if one doesn’t use oranges? 🙂 My simple orange cake is a great place to start baking with this lovely fruit but this one, with the added rosemary, adds a lovely oomph to it!
I love citrus flavours. As fruits by themselves, in dressings, as juice and especially in dessert. My lemon loaves are a favourite with family & friends, but I’m always looking for new ways to bring citrus into desserts. This mosambi (sweet lime) loaf is very close to my heart because it uses my all time favourite citrus fruit 🙂
This cake is one of the first ‘different’ cakes I learned to bake, once I restarted baking, around 7 years ago. Growing up, I mostly baked simple vanilla or chocolate cakes, nothing else. When I started living by myself, 7 years back, I got a tiny oven and rediscovered my love for baking 🙂 I started exploring more recipes and flavours and this became one of my go-to cakes. Easy, delicious, fragrant and just the right amount of fruit. What’s not to love?
