It’s the kind of quick bread that is just ah-mazing, love at first sight, I need this every morning with my morning coffee/tea kind of bread. Yumm! But let’s back up…
Do you like buying food in bulk? J came back from a trip to Canada yesterday and my Family stocked him up with all my baking and cooking essentials from Costco and David’s Tea. I think that liking things in bulk is totally an American/Canadian thing. I just like knowing that I have chia seeds…

That is exactly what this Homemade Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Spread tastes like. Rich, decadent and addictingl-y good, I’m convinced this Chocolate Peanut Butter tastes ah-mazing on…
I hope you’re having a great week! I originally had planned to share a mashed potatoes recipe with you this week but then remembered the big day coming up. And mashed potatoes just aren’t that romantic, are they? I can’t believe I haven’t posted a recipe since last Monday but my thesis deadline is coming…
Chocolate Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies with only FIVE ingredients! I think we can all agree that peanut butter + chocolate is one of the best flavor combos ever. Peanut Butter is one of those things that we were never allowed as kids (due to my mom’s allergies) and well, chocolate.. enough said. My love for…
I’ve been on the hunt for the the perfect Vegan Chocolate Chunk Cookies for awhile. And I have very high expectations with cookies. The perfect Chocolate Chunk Cookie for me is soft and thick in the middle and perfectly chewy around the edges. Not too greasy (can we all agree that greasy chocolate chunk cookies are…
What’s your Christmas morning tradition? When we were kids, we were always so excited Christmas morning we could never sleep. My parents actually got into the habit of setting the clocks back an hour so we didn’t wake them up at 5 in the morning to see if Santa came. When it was finally time to…
Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend! I thought I’d switch things up from my regular #MoveitMondays post and share a smoothie with you for Williams-Sonoma Smoothie Week! The folks over at Willlams-Sonoma asked me to create a fun and quirky smoothie for Smoothie Week and I thought what’s better than to create a…
These Flourless Almond Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies are so easy, healthy and delicious it’s not even funny. Made with 7 simple ingredients: Almond butter, oats, ground flax seed, maple syrup, vanilla extract, baking powder and chocolate chunks + sea salt if you count that as an ingredient. Which I don’t because technically it’s a finishing touch….

And things have gotten pretty pumpkin craazzayy around here this Fall. I mean, I’ve been putting pumpkin in almost everything we eat….
My love for all things sweet and chocolate is no secret. I never say no to dessert and always look forward to the last and *best* course. And that’s probably why most of the recipes of #CearasKitchen are sweet eats. I love dessert and am all for indulging in decadent and rich desserts once in…
I’ve been enjoying these Flourless Pumpkin Oat Blender Pancakes every Sunday for the past few weeks. J and I like to go for a long run together Sunday morning. And by together I mean we start at the same pace and after a couple minutes he is way ahead of me until he becomes a…
Things I learned since moving to Belgium: They do not sell canned pumpkin puree here. Chia seeds and a lot of other superrr foods are only sold in special shops. And everything in those special ships is wayyyy overpriced. I mean, who can afford 8 euros for a tiny bag of chia seeds that will last me less than…
There is something about baking that is so therapeutic. I love creating new desserts in the kitchen, measuring out the ingredients, tasting the homemade dough along the way (always), adding a bit more or this or that and waiting anxiously for the final dessert to pop out of the oven while my entire apartment is…
Peanut Butter was sacred when we were kids. It was never allowed in the house. So the moment we would visit grandma’s we would politely ask for a warm, melty peanut butter sandwich for lunch – or quite frankly for any meal/snack of the day. It was only a plus if it was spread on a…
Breakfast is my most adored meal of the day. And I am always trying to find new ways to incorporate my two of my favorites – bananas and oats – into my breakfast routine. Make-ahead healthy breakfast cakes are the perfect breakfast option if you are like me and never seem to have enough time…
Welcome to Ceara’s Kitchen 2.0! I am super excited to launch the latest Ceara’s Kitchen today – the switch from Blogger to WordPress is one I have been meaning to do for awhile and is well worth it. I am a big fan of WordPress so far – it is faster than Blogger, easier to navigate and…
Can you believe that the summer is almost done? I can. The weather here has been unbelievably chilly for this time of year. Fall is-a-comin’ and to be honest And now that the summer is coming to an end, I am looking forward to settling back into life in Belgium with J…
I have been a bit off the blogging radar for the past couple weeks because I have been literally travelling nonstop. For the past couple weeks I have had the pleasure of showing my boyfriend and his wonderful family a small fragment of this beautiful country of Canada. We rented a big American SUV (the kind you…
Since coming back to Canada a couple weeks ago I’ve been indulging in lots of fruit including fresh and frozen wild Canadian blueberries. Blueberries remind me of my childhood, my great grandma’s stories of picking blueberries up north and, of course, homemade, warm and comforting blueberry crumble. For awhile now a couple of my…
