Healthy carbs at breakfast
Another key element of every breakfast is carbohydrates. Healthy carbs at breakfast give your body an energy boost, which it needs for the day. Here, at Schloss Leizen, you won’t get your carbs through the usual bread or muesli…
There’s a better way 🙂
Vitamins: What are they and what do they do?
Your body needs a lot of important nutrients to stay fit and energized throughout the day, for example, vitamins. These can be either water-soluble or fat-soluble:
🌱 Water-soluble vitamins include vitamins C and B. Your body needs vitamin B for a proper exchange of nutrients in the cells (metabolism). Vitamin C blocks dangerous molecules (catches free radicals), which helps the immune system.
🌱 Fat-soluble vitamins include vitamin A, D, E and K. These are important for building new cells in the body.
We always make sure that children get their portion of vitamins with each and every freshly cooked meal we serve, especially at breakfast. Check out the pictures below!
How are you today?
Good mood can set the tone for the rest of the day. This is why we value the family atmosphere at our Schloss Leizen breakfasts so highly. We get to enjoy the first sunlight together, joke around, help each other wake up still sleepy kids and discuss our plans for the new day. And all that – as a big family, with the young and the old at one table.
Berry Shortbread Cookies Recipe
Kids in Leizen always love to know what is going on with the Schloss. Check out how they test the recipe for ORGANIC COOKIES to be handed out to the participants of the Association of German International Schools (AGIS) Conference taking place in Hannover this coming weekend. Schloss Leizen prides to be a sponsor and will be presenting its residential class trips and holiday camps this coming week-end.
INGREDIENTS YOU WILL NEED:
300g organic spelt flour
200g organic cold butter
100g organic raw cane sugar
1 organic egg, size L
1 pinch of Vanilla powder
Peel of ½ organic lemon
To gain a fruity taste, we use 6 teaspoons of either: raspberry powder, mango powder, blueberry powder & strawberry powder.
HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT COOKIES!
1. Mix the spelt flour with vanilla and the relevant fruit powders.
2. Transfer this mixture to a work surface and form a well (hole) in the middle.
3. Cut cold butter into cubes and place them into the well. Also add the sugar, lemon zest and the egg.
4. Quickly, knead everything into a dough, cover it with cling film, and let it rest in the refrigerator for 45 minutes.
5. Finally, form the dough into desired shapes. Bake the cookies in a pre-heated oven at 400°.
