Poppy seeds have long been a staple in our grandmothers’ kitchens. We know them from both sweet and savoury recipes, which they enrich with a specific taste, texture, and a wide range of beneficial nutrients. They perfectly complement pies, muffins, or cakes, as well as salty sticks or a sweet lunch.
You can easily start your day with poppy seeds. They work well in pancake or crêpe batter, yoghurt, or a quick mug cake that you can prepare in the microwave. Breakfast porridge can also be enriched with this ingredient. It’s always a good idea to have oat or quinoa porridge with poppy seeds.
As the header suggests, poppy seeds can also be part of the main course. With them, you can create, for example, poppy seed dumplings, steamed buns, or poppy seed rolls, even in a healthy version with whole-grain flour.
You can prepare a countless number of desserts and cakes with poppy seeds. Bake a classic poppy seed strudel, poppy seed roll, or the beloved poppy seed cake with apples or pudding. You can also add them to a Bundt cake or cheesecake. If you prefer lighter recipes, you might be interested in a flourless poppy seed cake or a quark cake.
Poppy seeds can also shine in savoury recipes. They are commonly used, for example, as a topping for savoury baked goods. Feel free to bake your own long bread rolls or baguettes and garnish them with poppy seeds. They also stand out on cheese sticks or in poppyseed crackers.
Moreover, if you have a powerful blender at home, try your hand at preparing a homemade poppy seed drink, commonly known as poppy seed milk. Simply soak the poppy seeds in water, let them sit overnight in the refrigerator, and then blend. After straining the mixture through cheesecloth, you’ll have a tasty poppy seed drink, which serves as a great alternative to cow’s milk.
The combination of plums, poppy seeds, and almonds is perfect for chilly days. Besides its fantastic taste, it will win you over with its captivating aroma. The blend of moist dough with crunchy almonds is just amazing.
