Amaranth Sandwiches with Bean Buttercream
I don’t even know how these amaranth sandwiches came together but I am dead proud this experiment came out as a winner! I didn’t know where I was going thoughout the recipe process but the sandwich itself is a muesli bar that I make quite often when going on trips. And I somehow wanted to…

Walnut Prune Bread (vegan, gluten-free)
This glutenfree walnut prune bread I have been wanting to try for a very long time now. One of my lovely workmates brought in a version which was not vegan and didn’t seem very healthy. But still everyone was raving about it – so this little never-stopping crazy machine in my head started rattling…trying to…
