You can't deny that the autumn is coming. In my kitchen strawberries and chard have been superseded by plums and chanterelles. More often we want hot soup rather than cold soup and fruit cocktails. Today I would like to share with you the recipe for buns with plums, which admittedly need more work, but I assure you that it is worth it. A warm bun is excellent with a cup of tea and if you are not able to eat everything, you can pack it in your children's lunchbox. This sweet surprise immediately brightens up a grey school day.

If you use fresh yeast you need to prepare leaven with the yeast, sugar and tepid milk. I used dry yeast. You only need to mix it with flour and knead with the rest of the ingredients.

Ingredients (6 buns)
dough
5g of dry yeast
200g of flour
125ml of milk
1 egg
3 tablespoons of sugar
30 g of butter
a pinch of salt
crumble topping
30g of butter
30g of caster sugar
60g of flour
8-9 plums
2 tablespoons of milk

The raspberry season is finished. Occasionally, you can buy quite nice fruit. Though they aren't as cheap as in the summer, I got tempted and bought a box. Some of the fruit was eaten at once by my children – raspberries are one of their favourite types of fruit – I used the rest in some oat-banana muffins. My home again smelled of summer. What a shame that the next raspberry season will be in a year's time. Oat-banana muffins are also excellent without fruit or with a different seasonal fruit. Now you could use apples, pears or plums. Make a note of this recipe and in the future make some muffins with raspberries, strawberries or blackberries.

Ingredients:
200g of banana
140 g of flour
40g of rolled oats
70g of brown sugar
50g of butter
50g of natural yoghurt
1 egg
1 teaspoon of baking powder
raspberries

In my home the beginning of the autumn smells of apples. Cakes, apple pies, tarts, desserts – I have prepared everything at least once. Today I would like to share with you the recipe for a swift dessert – apples in French pastry. They are perfect if you don't have a lot of time. Unless you are a cake master and you make the French pastry yourself. I used the finished product. I made the cookies to give my busy daughter a helping hand. Then she told me that with these cookies even "Pan Tadeusz" might be a good idea (the book "Pan Tadeusz" is a poem by Adam Mickiewicz. It is one of the most difficult set books in primary school).

Ingredients (6 cookies)
1 pack of chilled French pastry
2-3 apples
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
2 tablespoons of orange juice
3 tablespoons of milk
3 tablespoons of brown sugar

Whenever I have looked for ideas for a cake with pears, many times I saw interesting tarts with rolled edges called rustic tarts. I decided to prepare my rustic tart with pears. The thin crunchy almond cake, pithy pears and vanilla-fruit fragrance, which drew even my daughter from her room –is quite simply a dessert which you have to prepare. It has only one fault: it disappears too fast. But I tell you my solution. You just have to quickly make another one.

Ingredients:
dough
130g wheat flour
3 tablespoons of wheatmeal
4 tablespoons of minced almonds
2 tablespoons of caster sugar
2 tablespoons of cream
120g of butter
stuffing
3 pears
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
1 teaspoon of wheat flour
1 tablespoon of lemon juice
3 tablespoons of brown sugar
2 tablespoons of milk
2 tablespoons of apricot jam

I don't know anybody who doesn't like chocolate. Maybe except for those who like sausages more than sweets. Chocolate with nuts, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, muffins, cakes – I and my family like everything with chocolate. Some of us have to be careful with the amount of chocolate, but everyone sometimes allows themselves something mega chocolatey. Today I would like to share with you the recipe for an excellent chocolate dessert. It is similar to soufflé, but we don't need to worry that the cake will collapse, and the chocolate inside comes out nicely after slicing. You must be careful. The chocolate is extremely hot like lava, so it is excellent with cool fruit sauce and Vanilla ice cream. Do you know anybody who could resist this temptation?

Ingredients (for 4 people)
1 banana
50g of flour
50g of butter
100g of dark chocolate + 8 pieces of chocolate
100g of brown sugar
100ml of milk
