I promised you guys to show you the other pies I made a couple of weeks ago so here's the second one: a lemon meringue pie. Ever since I saw this pie for the first time in my Hummingbird Bakery cookbook, I knew I wanted to make it. And I knew it would be spectacular. So when we had visitors a couple of weeks ago, I thought it was a great occasion to make this pie. For the first time. Not the best idea I ever had.

Last weekend, my mother invited some friends over, so naturally this called for a lot of food. She made an amazing range of pasta dishes, but since this isn't a cooking blog, I'll skip that part. On to the desserts! I made three fruit-based desserts, which I will show you guys each in a separate post. Today I'll start with the crowd pleaser: an almond-pear flan.

     

How better spend a dreary autumn day than with a cup of hot tea and a piece of delicious apple pie? This one is really easy, but it's not something you could whip up in under an hour. Make this when you've got a couple of hours to spend. 

Ever tried a green smoothie?

Besides being incredibly healthy, they're extremely delicious and super easy to make. And best of all: you will not taste the spinach at all. The fruity flavors completely overpower the spinach. Convinced?

Well, onto the recipe then.

Ever since a couple of weeks, I’ve been playing with the idea of starting a baking blog, and here it finally is!

This week I was planning on baking an apple pie with apples from our garden. But when I got home, I stumbled upon some overripe bananas which my mother was about to throw away. Luckily, my sister saved them from my mothers cruel hands ;) I decided to turn the bananas into this delicious bananabread.
