Fall Savory Galette with Ricotta, Roasted Pumpkin, and Nuts

Fall comfort food in a single bowl. This creamy oatmeal-buckwheat porridge is fragrant with cinnamon and gingerbread spices, and thanks to the vanilla glaze, poppy seeds, and warm caramelized plums, it’s reminiscent of the beloved Germknödel. It’ll warm you up, leave you feeling pleasantly full, and tastes almost like dessert—exactly the kind of breakfast you’ll look forward to on chilly mornings. It’s also great the next day, so you can let the porridge cool and layer the individual components into glasses.

Coconut Cake with Blackberries and Yogurt

If you have fresh blackberries at home, this cake is a great way to use them. The yogurt keeps the batter beautifully moist, the coconut adds a delicate aroma, and the blackberries provide a pleasant tartness. A little jam further enhances the fruity flavor while allowing you to cut back on some of the sugar. The result is a simple, seasonal cake that’s perfect with coffee, as a summer dessert, or as a sweet snack for the next day.

Gluten-Free Chocolate Loaf with Zucchini

A moist chocolate cake in which the zucchini is barely noticeable, but helps keep the batter pleasantly moist. Buckwheat flour gives it a slightly nutty flavor, while melted chocolate and cocoa create a rich chocolate base. The cherries complement the cake with a fresh, slightly tart flavor and perfectly balance its sweetness.

Baked Apricots with Cinnamon: A Sweet Summer Base with Many Variations

Homemade granola is one of those recipes you love to come back to, especially when you’re craving something fragrant, crunchy, and simple. This week, with the chilly, rainy weather outside, it’s absolutely perfect—it fills the kitchen with the lovely scent of cinnamon, brightens up a slow morning, and helps use up any leftover oats, nuts, or seeds. I bake it in one big batch, let it cool, and then break it into larger, crunchy pieces. This makes it great not only in yogurt or porridge, but also just for snacking on as a quick snack.

Quick Sheet Pan Cheesecake

This time, I made a sheet cake version of my small cheesecake batter—and honestly? It might have been even better. The fluffy, tender dough, sweet strawberries, and crunchy crumble topping create a combination that tastes perfect when still slightly warm. But other fruits, a layer of homemade jam, or even plum jam would work great here too. The cake is best fresh, but you can easily pack it in a container for the next day.
