Upside Down.

I am still waiting for the keys to my new home – but it’s not going to take long anymore! Until then, I can bake at home with Mum. This pie was teamwork. And this pie is a September pie – Apples taste absolutely great now! So we made Upside Down Apple Pie.


It’s really quick, easy and oh, tasty! (Deutsche Version.) More

Dearest Mum.

Happy Birthday! Since I’m in lovely Stockholm, I can only tell you from far away. Have a great day, love you!

Last week, we pre-celebrated Mum’s birthday. With a Black Forest Cake. (Deutsche Version.) More

What to Bake with Buttermilk. 1.

Buttermilk is summerly. It tastes fresh and sourly. So does rhubarb. Let’s make a Rhubarb Buttermilk Pie.

Simply Savoury.

This week, I made something quick and easy before I went to work: Apple Muffins. They’re so easy you only need one bowl, a mixer and a knife. But I can tell you, they weren’t only quick and easy, they were also absolutely tasty and luscious, too.

Fruity Pancakes.

This weekend, we were in the mood for a really nice breakfast. And since I found this great pancake-post on Foodiologie (I just love this blog title!), I wanted Pancakes.

We love pancakes with fruits. And as luck would have it, in the fruit and veg box I get delivered every two weeks, there was a Mango. More

What to do with a box full of apples.

First: Make apple sauce.

Oooh, yummy. Mix it with yoghurt for breakfast. You know you want it!

Then, go to the Christkindlmarkt (Christmas market) at Rathausplatz in Vienna.

What can you find there?

Cutting myself an apple break.

I’m sure you know this feeling when everything’s too much and you really need a break. Right now. My break looks like this. Apple Strudel.

Today I woke up after another bad night’s sleep with too much going on in my head. I was tired. I knew I had thousands of more important things to do and to study, but I couldn’t. Today, I decided I was going to take a break. So I wrote my most important mails of the day and went in the kitchen. And then I did what I wanted to do for a month. Bake an apple strudel.

Happy Birthday to us!

This is a piece of my and Mum’s self-made awesome Sacher birthday cake.

(We put a thin layer of marzipan under the frosting! Yummy, yummy, yummy.)
We’re celebrating today because I’ll leave Vienna by train tomorrow. Where will I go?

Blueberries beat the heat

I know I didn’t write a post here for quite a long time. It’s hot. It’s too hot to bake. It’s too hot to do anything.
But I did it. I turned on the oven. I made those. Blueberry Vanilla Muffins.


I know it’s summer. Heat is normal. But it’s hot like hell. This can’t be normal. It can’t be like that every year, can it?

But I also know: Summer means berries. Berries are tasty. Especially blueberries.

Sugar and Spice for Dad

In Austria, today’s Father’s Day.
Since my parents came home only yesterday, I had enough time to bake my present for Dad: a Linzer Tart.

You don’t know Linzer Tart? Oh, you miss something. It’s an Austrian speciality (Linz is the capital of Upper Austria) made of pie crust with spices and nuts and red currant jam. Sounds like a treat for winter, but it’s baked the whole year round.
