In keeping with the Moroccan theme of the week, (click here to read about my Moroccan inspired outdoor movie night), today’s recipe pays homage to the French influence in Moroccan cooking. Despite the short lived colonization of Morocco, France’s influence on the country’s food remains. And this Apricot Lavender Cake is quintessentially French in flavour.
Every Sunday when I go over to my parent’s place for dinner, I eye a stunning lavender bush out front, debating taking a cutting or two. For some reason I’ve resisted, until this past weekend. Why I waited so long, I’m not sure! With this one simple cutting, my place smells amazing and I’ve been inspired to explore what I could do with lavender, which is when I discovered these Lavender Honey Popsicles. Don’t they sound like something you’d find at the best spas in the world? Don’t be fooled – they are incredibly simple to make, and just as divine and healthy as you’d expect.
If you’ve been following me for any amount of time you know I’m not shy about baking indulgent delights, but in the summer months, I find myself craving lighter treats, perhaps it’s the lighter layers and sleeveless tops 😉
