Chocolate Quinoa Nests & Easter Egg Energy Balls {Vegan}
When I was a child, it was the Easter bunny, or lièvre de Pâques, that brought us chocolate eggs at school or hid them in our garden. Of course like all kids, I would just eat as many eggs as I could get my hands on.

Pumpkin Bread
Happy Halloween! Today I am baking a gluten free pumpkin bread. I do mean 'bread', in the French way, le pain, not the American classic, which is more like a cake. I am super happy how this bread turned out: soft and fluffy, with hints of pumpkin and spices flavors. That lovely pumpkin shape makes it festive, ideal for the season! {Recette en ...
Fig Crumble With Quinoa-Hazelnut Topping
"How do you come up with your recipes?" a friend asked me recently. Quite often a seasonal ingredient is inspiring me, such as luscious figs currently in the markets, and it all begins there. Baked in a pie, like in this indulgent fresh fig and almond cream pie I made last year? Turned into jam? As a pizza topping? Today I fancied a warm comforting ...
