Blueberry, Cream Cheese Brioche Breakfast Buns
These beautiful, rustic breakfast buns are similar to an Eastern European Vatrushka bun. The light, buttery brioche is dimpled in the middle before being filled with a cream cheese mixture and glossy blueberry compote. They’re then topped with a oat and brown sugar crumble before being baked.
Herby Red Pesto, Ricotta and Cheddar Babka
This deliciously savoury loaf is made up of buttery soft brioche layered with a mixture of red pesto, ricotta, rosemary, cheese and black pepper. Feel free to use any cheese that you have leftover from the festive season. Regardless of what cheese I’m using, I always like to add in a bit of parmesan to amp up the flavour.
Raspberry Jam Finger Doughnuts
Finger doughnuts are an absolute classic. They’re my go-to whenever I pop into a bakery. I can’t resist them! The fresh pillowy doughnut contrasted against sweet cream and tart homemade raspberry jam, makes for a perfect bite.
Chilli Oil, Tomato, Mozzarella & Olive Focaccia
Few things beat a fresh batch of Focaccia. I adore the ease of this bread. Its minimal effort, maximum reward. Instead of using olive oil in this recipe to dimple and prove the dough, I’ve gone for a punchy chilli oil. Accompanied by fresh cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, thinly sliced red onion and green olives; this is my ultimate snack.
Lune Croissanterie Book Review
I’m one of those crazy people that will spend three days making croissants at home. I just adore every aspect of it. The making, shaping, baking and of course, eating. I find baking so therapeutic and spending days labouring away on some croissant dough is my idea of heaven. I promise that all the effort is worth it when you take that first bite of crisp, buttery, flaky pastry.
Super Seeded Loaf
If you love sourdough but don’t have the time (or memory to remember to feed it) then this is a delightful alternative. This delicious golden loaf is made using a preferment and takes 3 days from start to finish. Don’t be put off by the long prep time, it’s mostly waiting and hardly any ‘active’ time. This recipe makes two loaves which makes all the effort worth it as you can keep one sliced in the freezer for fresh bread whenever you like!
