A fun twist on a all time favorite! The light floral flavor makes this breakfast extraordinary! Drizzle just about a tablespoon of lavender simple syrup on top if your a lover of lavender. We liked using Texas style toast for this breakfast, but any type of bread will work.  Lavender French Toast 2 eggs 1/2 cups milk 1 tsp Lavender Extract 1/2 tsp Culinary Lavender Bud 1/2 tsp Ground Culinary Lavender Bud 6 slices of bread In a shallow baking dish combine eggs, milk, lavender extract, culinary lavender bud and ground culinary lavender. Mix with a whisk until combined, set aside. Heat a skillet on medium heat until pan is warm, spray with a little oil. Dip your bread into the egg mixture on both sides, place on hot skillet. Turn each french toast slice when golden brown. Optional, drizzle finished french toast with 1 Tbsp Lavender Simple Syrup or your favorite maple syrup. Serve while warm and enjoy!  We always love to see people make our recipes! If you do #norwoodlavenderfarm so we can see them. Enjoy!
We were inspired to play around with some cranberry vodka we had got from Wild Roots and the result was this fabulous recipe that is perfect for the Christmas holiday. Getting into the spirit of Christmas isn't hard with this beautiful drink. So easy to tweak the ingredients to make it to your liking.  Christmas Cranberry Cocktail 1 shot cranberry vodka ¾ cup cranberry juice 1/2 shot Lavender Simple Syrup top with champagne or sparkling water Garnish with Lavender Cocktail Picks and cranberries. To your glass add all ingredients and stir. To rim your glass you will need 2 plates, on one you will place about 1 Tbsp of lavender simple syrup on the second plate lavender sugar (or you can use plain sugar). Dip your glass edge into the syrup until all edges are wet. Then into the sugar. See below on how we sugar coated our cranberries and lavender.  Sugar Coated Garnish
Here is how we sugar coated our lavender and cranberries. Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper. To a small bowl add an egg white. With a whisk beat the egg whites until light and frothy. In a second bowl add 1/3 cup of lavender sugar (or plain will work). With a small paint brush, paint a little egg white and dust with sugar. Turn your oven to 150-200℉ until dried (about couple hours). Feel free to share our recipes tag us #norwoodlavenderfarm we would love to see it! This lavender appetizer is sure to please anyone looking to add the sophistication and elegance to their appetizer plate. These infused wine and lavender blackberries are a treat on top of brie cheese and a elegant lavender lemon curd. Dreamy....delicious and oh so yummy!  Wine & Lavender-Soaked Berries 1/2 cup red wine ( or non alcoholic version would be grape juice) 1 Tbsp Lavender Simple Syrup 1 tsp lemon juice Lavender Cocktail Picks Lemon Lavender Curd 1/4 cup Lemon Curd 1/2 tsp Lavender Extract Thin wafer style crackers Stir together, red wine, Lavender Simple Syrup and lemon juice into a small bowl. Add 1 1/2 cups of fresh blackberries to your wine mixture. Let the berries soak for at least 30 minutes and up to overnight. In a small bowl combine lemon curd and lavender extract, stir until combined.  Brie & Berry Cocktail Bites
To assemble your Lavender Cocktail Picks, smear a little Lemon Lavender Curd onto your cracker, cut your brie cheese into small squares, poke a hole through the cheese with a toothpick. Insert your lavender cocktail into a pre-poked berry and then into cheese square, place on top of cracker and lemon curd. The trick to Lavender Cocktail Picks is to think light. They aren't super strong, so you are looking to add the garnish bling but keeping in mind they are fragile. Make them just before serving. We always love when we inspire others with our lavender recipes! If you make this share with us #norwoodlavenderfarm so we can see it. If you share our recipe or photo we just ask that you give photo and recipe credit. Go out and be inspired with lavender! |
