Baking tip: here’s my secret to getting the perfect split down the center of banana breads and loaf cakes. Pour the batter into a prepared pan and level it by shaking the pan. Then use a sharp knife to score a straight line down the middle of the loaf. Voilà…picture perfect split every time!

My homemade Italian Wholegrain Breakfast Cookies for perfectly into 12-ounce glass jars with screw tops. They stay beautifully crisp (and beautiful to look at on your counter) and ready to dip into morning cappuccino. Get my recipe and tutorial for these healthy breakfast cookies in my previous post and on my blog (tap the link in my bio).

☀️Buongiorno e buona colazione ~ good morning

☀️Buongiorno e buona colazione ~ good morning and good breakfast! These healthy oat cookies are my homemade dupe of the popular wholegrain Italian breakfast cookie, ‘Gran Cereale’ (meaning big cereal) biscotti by Mulino Bianco. Crunchy and barely sweet, they’re high in fiber and flavor with a satisfying texture and taste. These cookies are my go-to breakfast in Italy and I developed this recipe to replicate at home, making them gluten-free and super digestible with oat flour and plant based milk for an even healthier cookie (although you can use whole wheat flour and cow’s milk for the OG biscotti). Dip these crisp, honey-kissed cookies into a frothy cappuccino and pretend you’re in Italy!

Follow up news on the Italian Mimosa Cake I made for International Women’s Day yesterday (see previous post with video). It’s now gone and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite 😋. So light and delicate that it hardly had any calories 😂. I did make it with homemade GF sponge cake though 😇. I’ll post the recipe for next year’s #internationalwomensday ~ promise, but hold me to it🤞.

🌼 Italian Mimosa Cake for Women’s Day🌼
To all my soul sisters out there…this cake is for you (it’s GF too)! Torta Mimosa is the traditional cake for International Women’s Day (Festa della Donna) in Italy, and I can’t think of anyone I’d rather share it with more than all my lady friends and followers who support and nurture me to do the work I love every single day.

Love you all! Happy Women’s Day 💛

❤️Cooking tip from my kitchen to yours! Ever

❤️Cooking tip from my kitchen to yours!

Ever open a can or tube of tomato paste to use a little bit then forget it in the refrigerator too long? It goes bad after a couple months and is a shame to waste. Instead, transfer tomato paste to a freezer bag labeled with name and date. Lay it on a baking sheet and press into a flat layer about ¼ inch thick, making sure to press out all the air before sealing shut. I use a pastry scraper to smooth tomato paste and press out air. Freeze the bag of tomato paste until solid, then store it upright in the freezer to save space. It’s so thin and takes up no space at all!

Tomato paste lasts 3 to 6 months in the freezer as opposed to 2 months in the tube or container (if using canned paste, always transfer what you don’t use to another container before refrigerating). When you need tomato paste, just break off as much as you need (it’s easy to see a tablespoon amount) and toss it frozen into your pan. I always have fresh tomato paste in my freezer 🥰.

No more tomato paste waste❣️

Ciao ciao 👋
