Feijoa tart with sweet orange shortcrust.

Plum and feijoa tart. Prior to making this tart I stewed the plums with cinnamon and vanilla sugar, mainly because they were getting old, but also because I wanted something amazing on my muesli in the mornings. You can use canned plums if it’s easier. Also, if you don’t know what a feijoa is, you’re really missing out. I’m lucky to have a tree in my garden that’s currently spewing forth more fruit than we can handle. In my opinion they taste a little like root beer, but every time I say this people look at me funny. You can skip them if they’re unavailable. This will still be good. 250g non-dairy marg3/4 cup sugar 1 tsp No-Egg with 2 tbs water (or 1 tbs ground flax with 1/4 cup warm water)grated rind of an orange (or lemon)1 tsp vanilla extract2 1/2 cups plain flour2 1/2 tsp baking powder400g stewed or canned plums(4 - 5 feijoas, flesh scooped from the shells and diced)icing sugar to dust Preheat the oven to 190C and grease and flour a flan or cake tin.Mix together the marg, sugar, vanilla, zest and egg replacement until well combined. Fold in the flour and baking powder. You should end up with a tacky dough.Push 2/3 of this into the bottom of your tin and spoon over the fruit. Drop mounds of the remaining dough over the top and bake for 40 minutes. Let the tart rest for 10 minutes out of the oven before serving. Dust with icing sugar.

Blueberry and banana almond *crumb cake*. * Or East Coast coffee cake (though why you would call it a coffee cake when it contains zero % coffee is beyond me, and frankly downright deceptive).

Toasted oats, home-made soy yogurt, sultanas, roasted spiced apple slices, toasted seeds (pepitas, sunflower, sesame, chia, linseed), walnuts and ground flaxseeds. On the mornings I’m not at work (7:30am starts) I like to make a big ceremony out of breakfast. The apples I coated in agave, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg before roasting in a moderate oven until golden.
