Summer is coming to an end and we are looking forward to autumn! This cosy time of year invites us to try out delicious and sustainable recipes that are not only good for our bodies, but also for the environment. Without meat, fast food and unnecessary packaging, the autumnal plate will be colourful. Here are some of our favourite recipes for autumn that you should definitely try.

 

Flammkuchen pastries with grapes and pumpkin: rolled instead of flat! This crispy classic can be wonderfully varied and is perfect for cosy autumn evenings.

 

Banana and almond cake with cinnamon: Sweet and fragrant, this fruity delicacy is the perfect accompaniment to a hot cup of tea or coffee.

 

Orange and buckwheat crostata: We have reinterpreted this Italian tart with oranges, blueberries and honey. Not only delicious, but also a real eye-catcher.

 

Grape and beetroot salad with feta: This is how hearty we love salad in autumn! The fruity component and the delicious dressing make it a real discovery. A healthy and filling meal.

 

Sourdough bread with bananas au gratin: easy to prepare and full of flavour - perfect for cooler days. Banana, fig and mozzarella - this combination sounds perfect.

 

Sustainability in the Kitchen Is So Easy

 

With our autumn recipes, you can not only conjure up delicious dishes, but also make a contribution to sustainability. Here are a few tips on how you can cook in an environmentally friendly way:

 

Use seasonal and regional ingredients: You can support local farmers and reduce your carbon footprint.

 

Avoid unnecessary packaging: Buy loose goods and bring your own containers.

 

Opt for plant-based ingredients: not only are they good for your body, they are also better for the environment.
