🥹✨ Baba and her cookbook are in ‘Your Weeke

🥹✨ Baba and her cookbook are in ‘Your Weekend’ magazine today - you’ll find it in The Dominion Post, The Press and the Waikato Times (or check it out online!💃).

There’s an excerpt from the book, including some of Baba’s special food stories growing up, plus her ‘famous’ Croatian fried donut recipe (aka fritule or pršule).

Who knew our little project would lead us here💛 Thank you @nzstuff - Baba’s year is made, and it’s only February!🙏

Creamy matcha chia seed pudding🍵This one gives total matcha latte vibes!

Made with just 7 ingredients, it’s great to meal prep and enjoy as an easy speedy brekkie on-the-go.

It’s a good source of dietary fibre, and the matcha gives an energising caffeine boost too!💃

Comment ‘matcha’ below for the recipe and I’ll flick it to your inbox💚 #matcha #matchapudding #chiapudding

🍑Summerfruit Whipped Ricotta Tart🍒 My go-to

🍑Summerfruit Whipped Ricotta Tart🍒

My go-to dessert for summer! With summerfruit in season now in NZ, it’s the perfect time to give this a try. It might look a little fancy, but this one is surprisingly easy to make.

As a Nutritionist, I love fresh summer fruit🙏 Not only are they delicious—they’re packed with goodness too:

🍑 Apricots = A good source of Vitamin A
🍒 Cherries = Packed with Vitamin C
🍑 Nectarines = A source of potassium
🍑 Peaches = Another great source of Vitamin C

For more seasonal inspiration, make sure to check out @5adaynz💃

INGREDIENTS
Pie crust
1 ½ cup almond flour
1 cup plain or gluten-free flour
Pinch of salt
¼ cup melted unsalted butter
2 Tbsp runny honey
1 egg

Whipped Ricotta Filling
500 g soft ricotta cheese
¼ cup runny honey
Vanilla essence, to taste

Fruit Topping
Sliced summer fruit
Mint

METHOD
Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease a 23cm tart tin. Combine dry ingredients, mix in butter and honey until crumbly, then add egg to form a dough.

Press into the tin, prick with a fork, and bake for 10–11 minutes. Cool completely before removing from the tin.

Blend ricotta, honey and vanilla seeds until smooth. Spread ricotta mixture over base. Top with sliced fruit. Chill before serving.

Let me know if you give this one a go—I hope you love it!💛

New recipe✨ Double mint chocolate energy balls.

New recipe✨ Double mint chocolate energy balls.

I’m pretty careful about claiming a healthier take on a sweet treat tastes like the real deal—but these peppermint snack balls deliver SERIOUS After Dinner Mint vibes (or York Peppermint Patties for my US friends💃)!

They’re made with wholesome ingredients, are great to meal prep, and last for yonks in the freezer (though I reckon they won’t hang around that long🤤!).

Vegan friendly + gluten and dairy free.

If you’d like the recipe, comment ‘recipe’ below and I’ll send it to your inbox💛
