Chili Granola
This quick and easy recipe for a crunchy granola with zing is suitable for breakfast, brunch or as a snack. It’s very versatile as it can easily be adapted to suit your needs or supplies at home. If you want variety at the breakfast table or are a granola fan anyway, then you should try this simple recipe. It’s quicker to prepare than my indulgent lentil-cocoa granola because it uses soy flakes as a protein source.

Cinnamon Stars
The cinnamon star is found in Switzerland, Austria and Germany. It is another typical Christmas biscuit. Cinnamon stars are sweet almond biscuits with a distinct cinnamon flavour. They are usually coated with a white egg-white sugar icing. Cinnamon stars are said to have existed as early as the 16th century, but as cinnamon was precious, the biscuits were found among the aristocracy. Recipes were not published until the 18th century.

Totenbeinli
Totenbeinli (literally: small dead legs) are Christmas biscuits that are particularly characterised by their hazelnut flavour. They are therefore sometimes also called Nussstängeli (literally: small nut bars). This pastry originates from Graubünden and used to be served at funeral feasts. Hence the macabre name. Today they are one of the classic Swiss Christmas biscuits.
