Simple Rhubarb Crisp

Rhubarb Crisp | Bijouxs Little Jewels

Rhubarb season is upon us. What’s better than a simple Rhubarb Crisp with Strawberry ice cream? Wow, I’m up to recipe No. 642 from the Collection Membership.

RHUBARB SEASON

I’m starting to see fresh Rhubarb in the markets, I saw Melissa’s Produce, so it is time to grab some and bake a simple crisp. Actually my neighbors grow it, I will have to look into this. It is a very tart vegetable, so many times you see it paired with strawberries for sweetness.

GRANDMA’S RUBARB

I have written about my Nebraska Grandmother, who came to LA later in her life. She really knew her way around rhubarb, she grew it in her suburban garden, along with potatoes and of course chickens. She was a farmer so this was normal for her. She always made a Strawberry Rhubarb pie, but I opted for something simpler like this crisp.

STRAWBERRY + RHUBARB

Simple Rhubarb Crisp | Bijouxs Little Jewels

You see these paired together in recipes. The strawberries cut the tartness of the rhubarb. I went straight rhubarb for the crisp and served it with a scoop of strawberry ice cream. Another Little Jewel recipe from the Membership Collection.
Thank you for your support!

Scottish Vintage Oat Cakes

Scottish Vintage Oat Cakes | Bijouxs Little Jewels

Simple with historic ingenuity these are still a staple today-Scottish Vintage Oat Cakes the newest Little Jewel in the Membership Collection.

SCOTTISH OAT CAKES

These oat cakes have been a part of Scottish cuisine dating as far back as the 14th century. The story goes that nuns in Scotland were making “little pancakes rather like communion wafers”, and this is thought to describe the making of oatcakes.  Scottish soldiers would carry oats which they moistened then griddled.

MODERN OAT CAKES

The texture of today’s oatcakes may vary from rough to fine depending on how the oats are ground They are a fantastically flexible cake, from breakfast to dinner and cocktail hour.

With just 5 ingredients these modern Scottish Oak Cakes are very easy to prepare, then keep on hand. Rolled oats, oat flour or finely ground oats, baking powder, salt, olive oil or butter along with hot water-that’s it. Really.

The dough is rolled out thin, cut into 2-3 inch rounds and popped in the oven to crisp. After 15-20 minutes golden brown and crisp cakes emerge ready for you to spread your favorite toppings.

CHEESE & CRACKERS

My favorite take on these cakes is pictured here, sharp creamy French Roquefort with a drizzle of rich local avocado honey-perfect. These very simple crackers are a vessel for your favorite sweet or savory spread. Nice to accompany a cheese plate too.

VIETNAMESE COFFEE

One of my favorite parts of dining on Vietnamese cuisine is the rich, sweet flavor of a Vietnamese coffee. At one point in time, I had a real Vietnamese coffee drip maker (update I just got a new one) and tried my hand at making these sweet and potent cups of coffee. Mine were never ever as good as the restaurant version. There also is a preferred coffee Cafe Du Monde to use for classic results.

COFFEE GRANOLA

Loving Vietnamese coffee lead me to a way to flavor granola with the same creamy, coffee sweetness. How? You begin with basic coffee ingredients of sweetned condensed milk and coffee. Next the basic granola components of rolled oats, cashews, pecans and pumpkin seeds. Flavor with cinnamon and cardomom. Melted coocnut oil is also mixed in with the granola mixture, completed.

Bake the granola on a standard half sheet pan lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Bake the granola, watching over it during the 40 minute or so bake, giving it a mix a few times during baking for even browning. That’s it. You favorite coffee is now in your breakfast bowl. Top with sliced fresh fruit and Vanilla Almond Malk. Coffee is served. Store the granola in a glass sealed jar. Good Morning!

Vietnamese Latte Granola

Vietnamese Latte Granola | Bijouxs Little Jewels

Good Morning! Coffee and granola for breakfast, together in one bowl. Here’s the newest little jewel Vietnamese Latte Granola. Enjoy!

VIETNAMESE LATTE GRANOLA

I love both Vietnamese coffee and granola, so I began thinking of a way to combine the two in one bowl. Vietnamese Latte Granola is simple and fulfills both breakfast cravings. Since I have so many granola recipes on my blog, (just search granola to find them all) I used the basic technique and added some espresso powder and sweet condensed milk, both part of Vietnamese coffee. I love Vietnamese coffee, but still need to purchase a traditional coffee drip.

SIMPLE INGREDIENTS

The key to this latte granola is the ground espresso and condensed milk, those are the two flavors present in Vietnamese Coffee. A collection of seeds and nuts are added to rolled oats. Off the oven to crisp things up. Allow to cool before storing the granola in sealed glass jar.

GREAT GRANOLA

The coffee flavor is not overpowering, so the granola pairs well with fresh fruits. On this bowl I used fresh blueberries and bananas, but just top with your favorite fruits.
