Quand on a envie de banane! – Cake à la banane et flocons d’avoine I think I am getting into a “oat phase” these days. I try to put oats and oat bran wherever I can.

Gâteau aux amandes sans gluten I have been playing around with this recipe for a while, changing quantities and I finally managed to like this version which is moist and soft.

Pour faire vivre les traditions – Gâteau au chocolat de Metz I doubt that anyone living in the US knows the city of Metz (pronounced Mess, even the majority of French people pronounce the “T” which is incorrect)…I know it because I went to school there and it’s located 50 km from Nancy where I [...]

Mon premier gâteau americain – Gâteau aux carottes, noix et cardamome This is an odd and very bright picture of the cake but I have so much light under my window with direct sun light to the table, that could not manage to shoot with a more subtle lighting.  The picture is incredibly bright, you [...]
