Healthy Banana Bread with Chocolate Chunks

Hello everyone!

Today's recipe is great for breakfast. Apart from being really good -chocolate-melting-in-your-mouth good- is very energetic and healthy! What else could you ask for?



This recipe is an adaptation from The Hummingbird Bakery's Banana Bread. I have made some changes -mild olive oil instead of butter, delicious dark chocolate chunks- and I am very happy with the results.



It is spongy and soft; trust me, you won't be able to eat only one slice! It also keeps really well, it can last a week or so, if you have enough willpower to resist it!

Nectarine and Raspberry Tart

Hello everyone!

If last recipe was induced by the amazing raspberries I collected in an orchad, this one comes from the fact that I got a crate full of nectarines. Perfectly juicy and big, and lots and lots of them.



In fact, they are so big that I only used two of them to make this tart!



The sweetness of the fruit is obvious in the tart and, in each bite, you will taste the intense nectarine flavour.

Mini White Chocolate Tartlets with Raspberries

Hello everyone!

I don't know if I had already told you, but for the next 2 months I will be living in the Catalan Pyrenees instead of Barcelona. Being here implies having a little less time for posting but, on the other hand, I have access to a fantastic orchard that has some amazing raspberries.


So, yesterday, I braved the unforgiving sun and I convinced my sister to go gather some raspberries. The berries were warmed by the sun and they practically fell into your fingers, staining them with their juice.


These tartlets are soft and light, fresh and perfect for the summer. Pair them with a cold glass of cava and enjoy them in the afternoon breeze.
