Are you hungry? Just imagine: cloud-soft, melt-in-your-mouth dough, creamy, moist plums, and crunchy sprinkling… Mmm, these plum buns are truly delectable! And though I usually eat buns only when I’m extremely hungry and have no other option, these buns are really wonderful, and you won’t be able to stop until you devour the last tiny bit. Beware, after you try them, you’ll never be able to savor store-bought buns and will probably become bun addict ! Would you dare to risk?
Zucchini cake
This delicious zucchini cake makes for an ideal appetizer or side dish. It reminds me of a favourite dish of my childhood – fried zucchini with mayonnaise and tomatoes, only this one is far healthier and certainly tastier. It also looks great, thus it’s wonderful for family celebrations. What’s more, zucchini pancakes are very basic and you can experiment and change the filling to your liking. So, while there are still fresh zucchini on the markets, cook it and enjoy every bite!

It’s impossible to spoil, so, while peaches are still on the stalls, give it a try!
