Spring calls for fresh desserts – and lemon and poppy seeds are a combination that never disappoints. This lemon and poppy seed cake is beautifully moist thanks to the yogurt, delicately sweet, and pleasantly lighter than classic pound cakes. It goes great with coffee, for a weekend breakfast, or as a simple dessert after lunch. You can serve it on its own or top it with fluffy whipped cream cheese and a little high-quality raspberry jam.
Crinkle cookies are wonderfully soft, fragrant and have the typical crackle that makes them a little chocolate dream. Plus, they come in a lightened version, with a bit of protein and applesauce, and they're easy to make gluten-free - just use gluten-free oatmeal.

Just mix a few basic ingredients, shape the balls in your hand and pop them in the oven for a while. After coating in cinnamon sugar, they taste like a little winter dessert that you can easily indulge in with your coffee.
