Hazelnut Butter and Coffee Meringues
For a high-contrast swirl, go easy when folding in the nut butter. A stroke or two with the spatula is enough.
Oat and Pistachio Sandies
For a delicate—not brittle—crunch, don't overbake. It's okay if the center of the cookie is still pale.

Yes, the dough is buttery, but replacing the brown sugar with pureed dates is a nutritional game-changer.
Weeknight Porchetta

Chickpea Pancakes with Leeks, Squash, and Yogurt
Weekday pancakes sound like a stretch? Make the batter Sunday evening and start the week strong.
