5 Easy Spreads for Breads

Für den Beitrag auf Deutsch, bitte hier klicken



Now I don't know about you, but I love bread for breakfast or as a snack and I have started to make my own spreads to go along with it. So much better than most of what you can get in the supermarkets these days. All of these spreads are vegetarian and some of them are also suitable for vegans and all yield about 10 servings. So let's get to it!

I somehow always seem to have leftover apples at home. I guess that's why I love recipes that help me use them up! I came across this recipe over at fitsugar.com. If you follow my Pinterest, you might have already seen it there. I just had to try it and share it! And it was sooo good! Here we go: my successful first attempt to make banana bread with apple pieces (small adaptions to original recipe)!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups (vegan)

Für Beitrag auf deutsch, bitte hier klicken. 



Who doesn't like a good desert? I certainly do and this recipe has made it to become one of my late favourites. Here's my version of the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups, adapted from the vegan recipe of Alicia Silverstone which can also be found in her book, 'The Kind Life'. I'm not a vegan myself but I appreciate cooking or baking vegan occasionally and I can only recommend everybody to try out a vegan recipe once in a while. I was really surprised about how good it can taste! Of course you could easily use conventional butter, milk and chocolate for this method.

DIY Tote bag from old T-Shirt

Hier klicken, um den Beitrag auf deutsch zu lesen. 


Inspired by Cassey Ho from Blogilates I was exited to try out this project of a DIY tote bag from an old t-shirt. I'm pretty sure every one of us has one or two t-shirts at home that are not being worn anymore for whatever reason. This makes them perfect for this quick and easy DIY! 

So get out the t-shirt...
