Blueberry Muffin Overnight Oats

Well hello there! Two oats recipes in less than two weeks? I must really want to eat healthy this year! Why am I even surprised? I should be eating oats daily, lol! I'm kind of falling or have already fallen in love with overnight oats. I used to imagine myself eating oats and I would totally dismiss it. The truth is, you never know what is good for you unless you try it! Oats can be boring if you just have them plain. Add texture, color, spice and aromaaroma, you have the best breakfast meal you can think of. Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day, hence the need to fill up on food that has immense nutritional value and keeps you full the whole day. You can never go wrong with oats, just add your favourite toppings and you have a complete meal for the day

Lemon Poppy Seeds Cake On Stove Top

I was craving cake but I don't have an oven, dilemma dilemma. Then I remembered I don't really need an oven if I want to bake. After the mug cake revolution, it was time to stop being conventional and start thinking outside the box. After all, our ancestors used to bake bread before these modern day ovens came to be. So I decided to make a stove top cake. What we call in Kenya "Mawe tatu cake" literally 3 stones cake. I have every step in the photos so you will be able to follow how I did it. Cake basics remain the same, only the baking part changes. I'm so happy how the cake turned out, not only was it moist and crumbly, it was delicious as heck! Now there really is no excuse when it comes to baking! Hope you enjoy this recipe and try out this "Mawe tatu" technique.

Coconut Sesame French Toast

French Toast Tuesday. That's what I'll be doing every week. I don't know but, French toasts are becoming my new favourite breakfast option. You can literally top the french toast with jam, honey, fruit, maple syrup or sugar for a sweet dessert or making savoury with your favourite sauce like ketchup, mustard or chilli sauce. If you want dairy free french toast, you can use orange juice, wine or rose water to soak the bread before frying. I love wholewheat bread because it is not only healthy but dense and will soak up the liquid without breaking apart. I like the French because they eat the toast as a dessert not as breakfast like most of us do, well, they did invent it so they decide how to eat the french toast.
