Chocolate and pear clafoutis with caramel sauce
A clafoutis is a typical French cake, which is prepared with a liquid dough based on eggs, flour, milk, butter and sugar. The most traditional clafoutis is the cherry clafoutis, which was baked with the cherries whole and pitted. But you can make a clafoutis from any fruit! I personally adore strawberry clafoutis (we have it on the blog, here), and today we give the recipe a twist by making a base of clafoutis with cocoa -the flavor of the chocolate combines perfectly with the pear, with which we will crown this today's clafoutis.
lemon pudding cake
If there is any dessert that is the most fluffy and soft, it is this lemon pudding cake that we bring you today. We bring it in an individual version, presented in the Le Creuset mini cocottes that we like so much, both to present at the table and to bake, because the truth is that there are some luxury biscuits left!
Christmas panettone
This recipe that we bring you today is very special! It is a Christmas Panettone prepared in Cocotte.
Panettone is a sweet bread filled with dried fruit traditionally from Italy. It is a sweet bread with a spongy texture that is normally eaten for dessert at Christmas time, but I also really enjoy it with coffee or tea, either early for lunch or mid-afternoon for an afternoon snack.

Coke from Trempo
Today we land in Mallorca to enjoy one of its traditional dishes, the well-known Coca de Trempó, a simple recipe that is always a success. For both informal and not-so-informal dinners, presenting it in

Apple, almond and rye cake
One of the juiciest and richest cakes I've made lately is this almond, apple, rye and honey cake. It is inspired by a Dan Lepard recipe, but I have adapted quantities and added a couple of ingredients that I wanted to try, and the truth is that it has been delicious.
Pumpkin, hazelnut and mushroom pie
This pumpkin, mushroom and hazelnut cake works well for dinner as well as a first course at any meal. It is a salty cake for which you will prepare the filling very quickly, and the result is spectacular. A wonderful combination of autumn flavors in a surprising cake.
Traditional Vanilla Bundt Cake
I am not bringing you one bundt cake recipe but three: first, a basic and essential in any home, the recipe to make an easy and delicious vanilla bundt cake. You can turn that same recipe, in a very simple way, into a lemon bundt cake or an almond bundt cake. At the end of the post I will tell you how.
onion focaccia
Focaccia is a very easy and versatile recipe. Today we make it with red onion (exactly the same you can do it with white onion), but you can follow the same recipe and replace the onion with tomato, green or black olives, cheese, sausage, you can make it alone with oils and spices,... Focaccia will easily become an essential recipe in your day-to-day life, because it also lasts very well for hours if you keep it well preserved (it will last two days great if you make it a little thick).
pumpkin pie
There are many traditional fall products, but I love pumpkins. They fascinate me. That is why this year we had to start the season with one of my favorite cakes. Pumpkin pie, better known as "Pumpkin Pie".
Sweet potato panellets with cinnamon
This recipe is one of the most traditional at the time we are. It is an elaboration of the confectionery of Catalan, Balearic and Valencian origin and they were elaborated to celebrate the day of All Saints on the first of November. You are going to make homemade panellets because with this easy recipe they will be great!
Banana and oatmeal pancakes
I bring you some banana pancakes -Not with banana, but with banana!-. Ever since I saw it being made, I loved the idea of giving that characteristic and sweet flavor of the banana in the same dough as the pancake, also made with oatmeal. Healthy and sugar-free, they are pancakes that you will make in no time and with only 3 ingredients. It's a really delicious breakfast!
