INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

Creamy, slow-cooked oats, sweet, jammy pears, a crispy pecan-date crunch, and a final hit of passionfruit to keep things interesting. It’s rich but not heavy, naturally sweet but not cloying, and the kind of thing that makes you feel like you’re staying at a really nice boutique hotel (even if you’re still in pajamas). Plus, it’s easy to make ahead, which is always a win.

How to serve
Serve this in your favorite bowl, drizzle with a little extra syrup if you’re feeling fancy, and don’t skimp on the crunch, it’s the best part. The passionfruit should be the last thing you add to keep that fresh, tart contrast. If you want to take it up a notch, add a dollop of yogurt or a splash of coconut milk. And if you’re a texture person, toasted coconut or cacao nibs would be a solid move.

How to store
Leftover oats keep in the fridge for up to 3 days, just reheat with a splash of milk or water to bring them back to life. The pear compote and crunch store separately in airtight containers (compote in the fridge, crunch at room temp) for easy layering all week.

INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

This is the kind of breakfast that makes mornings feel a little fancier than they actually are. Creamy vanilla yogurt, perfectly chilled, topped with fresh banana, kiwi, and passion fruit for that sweet-tart balance, plus a generous spoonful of homemade granola that’s golden, crunchy, and packed with chewy dried fruit. It’s fresh, naturally sweet, and can easily be prepped ahead, ideal for busy mornings or lazy Sundays.

How to serve
This bowl is best served cold, straight from the fridge. For the perfect bite, get a little bit of everything on your spoon: creamy yogurt, juicy fruit, and crunchy granola. Want to level it up? Drizzle some almond butter on top or add a sprinkle of coconut flakes for an extra tropical twist. If you’re feeling fancy, serve it in a chilled bowl for that extra-refreshing vibe. Morning coffee on the side? Always a good idea.

How to store
The granola keeps for weeks in an airtight container, so make a big batch ahead of time. The yogurt and fruit are best assembled fresh, but you can pre-chop the fruit and store it in the fridge for a quick grab-and-go breakfast. Just add everything together when you’re ready to eat!

INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

This is not your basic French toast. We’re talking crispy, caramelized edges, a creamy vanilla yogurt topping, and a tangy passionfruit glaze that adds just the right amount of freshness. It’s that perfect balance of buttery, crunchy, and melt-in-your-mouth softness that makes brunch feel extra. Whether you’re treating yourself on a slow Sunday morning or trying to impress someone with minimal effort, this dish is a guaranteed win. Think tropical, cozy, and just fancy enough to feel special without the hassle.

How to serve
This one shines brightest when served fresh off the pan: crispy and golden. Drizzle that passionfruit glaze generously, dollop some vanilla yogurt on top, and let it all melt together in the best way.

How to store
French toast is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one day. Reheat in a pan to keep the crispiness. The yogurt and glaze should be stored separately and added just before serving.

Description

Recommended Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • two small bowls
  • piping bag
  • large pan

Ingredients

Units Scale

PANCAKE BATTER

  • 1 egg
  • 55 grams neutral oil
  • 1 tbsp white sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 250 milliliter full-fat milk
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 200 grams all-purpose flour
  • 1–2 tbsp butter for frying

CINNAMON SWIRL

  • 60 grams butter
  • 50 grams brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

  • 100 grams cream cheese
  • 1.5 tbsp milk
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 20 grams powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. For the pancake batter, whisk the egg with sugar, canola oil, salt, and milk in a large bowl until well combined. Then add the flour and baking powder, and mix everything thoroughly with a whisk until you get a smooth batter. Set the batter aside briefly.
  2. For the cinnamon swirl, combine the room-temperature soft butter (don’t melt it in the microwave or on the stove, otherwise, the consistency will be too runny, and the swirl will lose its shape when cooked) with brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Put the mixture into a piping bag or a plastic bag and set it aside.
  3. For the frosting, mix powdered sugar, cream cheese, milk, and lemon juice in a bowl until smooth. Add a little more milk if you need a runnier consistency. Set this aside as well.
  4. Heat a large pan over medium heat and add a small piece of butter. Once the butter forms small bubbles, spoon 1-1.5 tablespoons of batter per pancake into the pan. Let them cook briefly until the pancakes start forming small bubbles around the edges.
  5. Now, cut a small hole in the piping bag with the butter-sugar-cinnamon mixture. Pipe the mixture onto the pancakes in a swirl pattern. Cover the pan with a lid and let the pancakes finish cooking on the lowest heat setting until fully cooked through. Important: Don’t flip the pancakes! Otherwise, the swirl will disappear.
  6. Carefully remove the finished pancakes from the pan, spread them with the cream cheese frosting, and enjoy!

Print Recipe

Description

Recommended Equipment

  • large bowl
  • spatula
  • plastic wrap
  • round cookie cutter
  • parchment paper
  • large pan

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 7 grams drive-active yeast
  • 25 grams white sugar
  • 200 milliliters full-fat cow milk
  • 100 milliliters water
  • 1 egg
  • 40 grams butter
  • 1.5 tsp salt
  • 550 grams bread flour (in Germany Type 550)
  • semolina

Instructions

  1. Stir together the yeast, warm milk, warm water, and sugar in a large bowl and let it sit for 10 minutes. The milk and water should be between 32°-36°C / 90°-97°F.
  2. Add the egg to the melted butter, mix well, and pour it into the bowl with the yeast mixture. Then add the flour and salt, and mix everything with a spatula until the dough is smooth and sticky. Keep kneading by hand until the dough no longer sticks to your fingers. This should take about 10 minutes. Put the dough back in the bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Let it rest for about 45 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle some semolina on your work surface, place the dough on it, and flatten it to about 2-3 cm thick. Sprinkle a bit of semolina on top of the dough as well. Use a round cutter to cut out circles, place them on parchment paper, and cover them with a damp cloth to rest for 15 minutes.
  4. Heat a pan and once it’s warm (you should feel the heat when your hand is close to it), place the dough circles in the pan. Cook them on low heat for 5-7 minutes on each side until they are crispy and golden brown on the outside, and soft and fluffy on the inside. Keep the finished English muffins warm in a bread basket with a towel, and enjoy! 🙂
