🩷VEGAN CRANBERRY CHOCOLATE SCONES🍓

This is a staple. Best. Scones. Ever.

I n g r e d i e n t s👀
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cups non-dairy milk Silk Canada
1/3 cup coconut oil, room temperature Nutiva
1 cup cranberries, fresh or frozen Driscoll's
Large grained sugar, optional for sprinkling

D i r e c t i o n s🥣
1. Preheat oven to 400ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt).  
3. Cut-in the coconut oil using a pastry cutter or fork until small crumbs remain.
4. Mix in milk to create a dough with no flour crumbs at the bottom of the bowl (you may not need all the milk).  The dough should be slightly sticky.
5. Gently fold in the cranberries.
6. Shape the dough into a ball and transfer it to the baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Shape and flatten the dough ball into a round disc about 1.5-inches thick.
7. Cut the dough into 8 pie-shaped pieces using a sharp knife. Sprinkle with large grained sugar, such as turbinado if you like an extra sweet crunch.
8. Bake at 400ºF for 15-22 minutes. 
9. Run the knife through the pre-cut dough and carefully pull apart the scones. Allow to cool before serving.

🍑PEACH UPSIDE DOWN COOKIES🍑
It’s still peach season and these are a delicious cookie version of a classic upside down cake with caramelized peaches!

I n g r e d i e n t s🧈
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
2 tbsp milk
1 tbsp corn starch
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups ap flour
2-3 tbsp brown sugar
4 small peaches, thinly sliced

D i r e c t i o n s🥣
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together butter, sugars, milk, corn starch, vanilla, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
3. Fold in flour with a spatula until soft dough forms. Use your hands if needed.
4. Sprinkle 1/2-1tsp brown sugar onto baking sheet in spaced out spots. Place 4-5 peach slices over brown sugar, layering them so they overlap slightly. Top with a scoop of cookie dough and press down with your palm so the peaches stick.
5. Bake for 13-14 minutes until edges are golden brown.
While cookies are warm, use a cup or cookie cutter to swirl the cookie and form a circle. Cool for 10mins on sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool peach side up.

🍫 Chocoberry Chocoberry Canada | Calgary, AB 🇨🇦

Came for the sweet and savoury brunch 👀

What we tried:
🍳 Turkish Eggs – not bad, but nothing that really stood out.
🍅 Shakshuka – soft-poached eggs were cooked perfectly but small portions for the price
🍫 Belgian Chocolate Kanafe – strong cardamom flavour. Decent, but the texture was a little confusing—some parts crunchy, others a bit mushy.
💚 Pistachio Crepe – good flavour, although the crepe was a little dry/hard in spots.
🍫 Dubai Chocolate Bar – actually really good but $$$!

The restaurant was busy when we went, service was decent, and portions were on the smaller side for the price.

Overall: decent experience, but not a new favourite. The Dubai chocolate bar was the standout for me!

Would you try the brunch or go straight for the chocolate? 👇
