Swedish Cardamom Buns {Kardemummabullar}

Please forgive me for this super delayed post. To say Working From Home got the better of me is an understatement. I’ve never been pre-occupied with work as much as I have since last year! I honestly miss going into the office and teaching students 

Cinnamon Swirl Loaf

Cinnamon Swirl Loaf

This cinnamon loaf is a quick bread as it uses bicarbonate of soda to rise. It literally is quick and not to mention really easy to make! The secret ingredient is Fair Cape Dairies Amasi, which they kindly sent to me.   Ingredients 2 cups 

“The Great Depression Cake”

“The Great Depression Cake”

This cake is also known as crazy cake, but I prefer the name “the Great Depression cake”, because it has no milk, butter or eggs and these ingredients were really scarce and expensive at the time. Its a quick and easy recipe, very straightforward. Everything
