Soft, tender honey bites, sweet without being cloying, hugely popular around Rosh Hashanah and perfect to offer with a coffee or a tea.

Cantuccini come from Tuscany: small, dry almond cookies, as crunchy as can be, and the best friend your fall and winter teas and coffees could ask for.

These ring-shaped honey cakes, fried and then dipped in honey syrup, are one of the best-known pastries on holiday tables, especially for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Today I’m sharing my family recipe for Tunisian yoyos.

Craving ultra-moist double chocolate muffins? This quick and easy recipe is perfect for an indulgent afternoon snack. These cocoa and chocolate chip muffins will quickly become a staple. A few minutes of prep and no complicated ingredients, and you get beautifully domed muffins with a tender crumb (that hardly makes any crumbs!) and an irresistible chocolate aroma. Kosher and parve if you use plant-based yogurt.

These banana chocolate chip muffins are a recipe to hold on to… They are light, indulgent, the chips are evenly distributed and never sink to the bottom. A quick, foolproof recipe. Plus, you get to use up those very (overly) ripe bananas you didn’t know what to do with because nobody wanted to eat them. Kosher and easily made dairy-free.

A few years ago I shared a delicious recipe for banana chocolate muffins. Here’s a recipe in the same spirit: it’s truly indulgent, with a light, pleasant texture. Part of the oil is replaced with applesauce (you can’t tell) and part of the white flour with whole spelt flour, which is better for fiber and keeps you full longer. So it’s perfect if you’re looking for a slightly healthier recipe. It’s kosher, and parve if you use plant-based yogurt. You’ll never throw out your ripe bananas again. In our house, it’s a keeper!


A childhood memory… A mountain of golden roses, glossy with honey syrup, sitting proudly on a porcelain serving platter. The best part? How thin the pastry is. A wonderful treat to make for Purim or Rosh Hashanah, or for Shavuot, to recall the giving of the Torah on top of Mount Sinai.

No list of Rosh Hashanah honey sweets would be complete without this cake, the Tunisian harissa (nothing to do with the chili paste!), made with almonds, semolina, orange blossom water and honey. It’s probably the easiest one to make, perfect if you’re just getting started.

Here’s my go-to recipe for dairy-free chocolate chip cookies. These cookies are quick to make and irresistible, with melty chocolate chips and macadamia nuts.

Cookies are the classic after-school treat, yet they aren’t always easy to get right. Here is a tried-and-tested recipe for chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies, along with a few tips for nailing them every time.
