When we first shared a recipe for our banana bread series (click here for recipe 1 and here for recipe 2) someone on Instagram told us that her favourite recipe came from our cook book “Andere Koek”. And honestly, I do think that’s one of our best recipes. The workshop cake, breakfast cake and waffles are other great classics, but this one is actually really good! Vegan and gluten free…
Read MoreFor a blog that specializes in pies and cakes, my birthday cakes are generally surprisingly bad. There’s photographic proof of this on Instagram, where we just ended up sticking some sparklers in the cake, because it was really just that terrible. In the end, it took us a whole year to improve last year’s lemon meringue cake. But now I do have one (although it’s not the prettiest thing and the bad January lighting doesn’t help matters either) that’s actually good! It tastes delicious and: I have a birthday cake!
Read MoreTo be completely honest with you, I absolutely love kitsch. More so than I love white and minimalism. But even in my own home I go for light colours, only to then ask myself why I ever thought that was a good idea with three pets running around the house and me being the queen of getting chocolate stains absolutely everywhere. But, yes, I usually go for light colours and would describe the style of Food Bandits as “cake on marble”. But now the time has finally come for me to finally use my one true love: edible glitter. If there is ever going to be a recipe that somehow requires tiger print in any way, I will have finally completed my life goal on this blog. For the holidays we have created this wonderfully soft chocolate Bundt cake, complete with chocolate sauce. And now that the holidays are finally here, I think everyone can use a little bit of glitter or fireworks in their life.
Read MoreWhen we first found this recipe at Tasty Yummies, I could not believe that a recipe this simple, could taste that good. This recipe is quite simply perfect and I do recommend this as a “must try.” Vegan and gluten free, oh and all the chocolate goodness.
Read MoreImagine having a brownie, a chocolate cake, and a Schwartzwälder kirsch torte in one. And now imagine this also being incredibly easy to make, while also being gluten free and completely plantbased! No worrying about finding all the ingredients at your local supermarket. Doesn’t that deserve its own celebratory statue or at the very least its own song, written and performed for Food Bandits?
Read MoreGranola is the perfect recipe for someone who can’t bake to save their life, but it is also a great basis for a good healthy breakfast, and will give you a happy feeling for the rest of the week.
To be completely honest, this is also my way of cooking and baking: throw a bunch of stuff together and pop it in the oven. But, of course, Food Bandits does sound a lot nicer. We make a big bowl of granola regularly, and I have some every morning with some fresh fruits, and Johann drowns it in almond milk.
