1/4 cup safflower oil

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

3/4 cup raisins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil baking sheet. Grind oats and almonds to a coarse powder in food pro-cessor or blender. Pour them into a large mixing bowl. Stir in baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Spring Eggs

4 large eggs
3 tbsp puréed spinach (frozen or fresh)
1 tbsp pine nuts
1 tbsp raisins
3 tbsp olive oil
4 rounded lettuce leaves
Salt & pepper

Soak the raisins for 30 minutes in a bowl of very hot water. Drain and dry. Grind the pine nuts roughly.

Cook the eggs for 10 minutes in boiling water. Let them cool and then peel. Remove a small slice from the largest (bottom) end of the eggs so that they stands up on their own. Top them as you would a boiled egg and remove the yolks carefully.

Mash the yolk in an egg and then cream with the spinach and olive oil using a fork until you get a creamy mixture. Season, add the pine nuts and raisins and mix well.

Fill the eggs with the mixture and serve upright on salad leaves.
