Warm, sticky, delicious and made with nothing but pure love – this is what these breakfast jam rolls signify to me. These instantly make me think of little kids running around the fields with sticky hands and jam streaked faces, giggling and playing with each other.

This is adapted from a cinnamon roll recipe by Dessert for Two – a simple recipe that is made instantly, with no eggs and no yeast – perfect for instant breakfast plans, perfect for the unorganized mum or in my case, unorganized aunt! That’s the sheer beauty of this recipe – whip it up in less than 10 mins, no proofing, no rising, no slow baking – it is instant gratification of warm jammy buns, and with a layer of the nutritional Prickly Pear Jam!

Butter + Jam Bread Pudding

This is my easy-peasy kid’s breakfast morning recipe. It works wonders with all age groups though and I have once added rum-soaked raisins as well, or hints of orange zest, an added lashing of brandy, sometimes allspice, sometimes frozen berries for a red jolt. I’ve never made anything easier, that made a huge impact. When I serve this in the morning, I also pair it with hot chocolate and create a bar with toppings – caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, nuts, sprinkles, chai spices, maple syrup and whipped cream – which work as toppings for both items. And let me tell you, the kids have a jolly good time!

Olive + Cheese French Toast

This is a delicious quick meal that can be had at any time of the day and perhaps one of my most favourite. Once I had an olive baguette that I used, and ever since, I’ve been adding olives into the egg batter. The dash of Worcestershire sauce is like a Welsh rarebit recipe – and adds a dash of oomph. Lots of herbs and chilies and then the best part is – lots of cheese on top – until nice golden and crispy! Eat as is, with sides of ketchup or hot sauce, some Dijon works too!

Pineapple Mithai Oatmeal

Oatmeal in a mithai flavour format? This is a real killer with the elderly who love sweets, but need a bit of fibre alongwith. I make the oatmeal the old-fashioned way in water with a pinch of salt, and for flavour i char-grill pineapple bits, add kesar, elaichi, badam and pista. If you like, add a dash of malai at the end and stir well! All the richness without the guilt!
