No better way to start a week than a sweet and sinful breakfast. Everybody hates Mondays, right? And those who don’t, nobody needs an excuse for something yummy, really.

Get creative with the toppings: Żubrek likes his with pecans, or with bacon. When bilberries are not in season, I like mine with whatever other fruit is. What’s your favourite?
