Join me on my quest of making homemade treats with less sugar!
This is a very simple Chinese steamed buns recipe. I used to steam the buns with my bamboo steamer set over a wok. But recently I discovered that my 30cm-bamboo steamer sat snuggly over my 8 quart Instant Pot. I gave it a test run and immediately fell in love with this method. I liked... Continue Reading →
My husband and I are both a big fan of durian. However, the price for fresh durian is way too much in Toronto. We could only enjoy them every time we visit my in-laws in Hong Kong. My friend sent me a pack of frozen durian as a gift last month and I didn't open... Continue Reading →
The big bottle of peanut butter sitting in my pantry was going to expire soon. I turned it into cookies in order to use it up more quickly. These soft cookies are crisp around the edges, soft in the center and filled with some crunches of peanut. I made them slightly bigger than usual (34... Continue Reading →
After sharing my Oatmeal Raisin Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe last week, one of my readers asked if she could omit the ground cinnamon as her kids didn't like cinnamon. I said yes because cinnamon is a spice that contributes to the flavor so feel free to adjust the recipe according to your personal preference. If you... Continue Reading →
I feel like that I have dedicated myself to making cookies the entire March. I’ve shared different cookie recipes like No Bake Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Energy Balls, Chocolate Chip Cookies as well as Triple Chocolate Cookies previously this month (how come they all contain chocolate chips?).

I've developed a recipe for Dark Chocolate Chip Soft Cookies more than three years ago. The use of bread flour and melted butter gives the cookies a soft and chewy texture. With a more traditional version this time, the cookies are more on the crunchy side. In fact, the softness could be adjusted by varying... Continue Reading →
These no-bake protein energy balls are loaded with nutritious ingredients such as flaxseed, chia seeds and oats. Natural peanut butter is used as a binding agent. They are naturally gluten-free, egg-free and can possibly be dairy-free (and hence, vegan) too if the chocolate chips are either omitted or replaced by cacao nibs or vegan chocolate...

I prepared some chocolate chip muffins for my kids as after school snacks yesterday. My elder daughter would break off the crispy muffin top and devour it right away, leaving behind the bottom part (how smart is that!). My younger son simply ate the whole thing in a jiff as usual. Homemade baked treats made... Continue Reading →
It is important for people with diabetes to limit their simple carbohydrate intake as these are broken down by the body quickly, resulting in an immediate rise in the blood glucose levels. My type one diabetes has led me to the exploration of diabetes-friendly desserts prepared with sugar substitutes. However, many of the results were... Continue Reading →
