Happy New Month, Loves! July is here! The second half of the year is already starting. Are you excited like I am? Well, a bit anxious but happy all the same. So, to kick off this second half of the year, I thought I'd share with you all the mug cake recipes that made it on my blog. Last year, I shared lots of Mug Cake recipes, and today's post is a recap of all the delicious little desserts called Mug Cakes. Single-serving desserts that you can literally whip up in less than 5 minutes, and there is no limit to the types of cakes that you can make. 

Sticky, Sweet, and Savory Balsamic Honey Glazed Chicken Thighs


If you're looking for a quick dinner that feels gourmet, these Balsamic Honey Glazed Chicken Thighs are exactly what you need. Perfectly seared chicken thighs are coated in a rich, glossy glaze made with balsamic vinegar, honey, garlic, and herbs. The result? Tender meat with a sweet-tangy finish that caramelizes beautifully. Serve them with rice, roasted veggies, or a fresh salad for a delicious, balanced meal. To say that I love chicken is an understatement! Chicken is THE dish that I would eat every day if I could! Fried, baked, stewed, boiled, curried, so many options to choose from. As you can see, I have a few chicken recipes on Nairobi Kitchen. I made this Indian chicken dish that was a total hit with everyone.

A Sweet, Crunchy Delight Cinnamon Peanut Glazed Doughnuts


If you love warm, fluffy doughnuts and the comforting taste of cinnamon, you’re in for a real treat. These Cinnamon Peanut Glazed Doughnuts take the classic doughnut to the next level with a buttery cinnamon coating and a thick, nutty peanut glaze. Whether baked or fried, they deliver the perfect balance of spice and crunch. Ideal for brunch spreads, cozy afternoons, or simply spoiling yourself with something sweet. I'm currently loving trying out different flavours of doughnuts. So far this is my second doughnut recipe. I made red glazed coconut doughnuts , which turned out to be a hit, and so I thought about what other combinations could work. Once you have the basic recipe for making doughnuts, you pretty much have a canvas on which to work with. I wanted crunchy doughnuts so I went with crushed peanuts on top. Delicious is an understatement! You can choose to fry or bake your doughnuts; either way they turn out delicious every time. I think my next recipe will be baked doughnuts. Yum!
