ANNA OLSON'S CRISP FRUIT CHIPS
Yes, this is another recipe from Food and Drink Magazine! "A garnish of fruit chips is a dramatic way to add shards of concentrated flavour and snappy crunch to winter desserts and soups. Pastry chef Anna Olson, host of Food Network Canada's "Sugar" and owner of Olson's Foods and Bakery in Port Dalhousie, particularly loves pear or pineapple chips. They're easy to make at home, she says, but cautions "the real trick is having a good sharp mandolin slicer to cut the fruit thinly." I had fun making these beautiful garnishes so I thought I would share! They may be made with your favourite fruits, unpeeled pears or apples sliced lengthwise, or peeled and uncored pineapple are good choices. Use your imagination!! Ingredient amounts are approximate, you can add more or less fruit and icing sugar to taste.

Steps:
- Using a mandolin slicer (inexpensive Japanese versions are available in most kitchen supply stores), very thinly slice your favourite fruits.
- Arrange slices in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet; sprinkle with icing sugar.
- Top with another sheet of parchment and another baking sheet.
- Dry in a 225ºF (110ºC) oven for 45 minutes. Remove top baking sheet and top layer of parchment; continue drying in the oven for at least another 45 minutes, until crisp. The more moist the fruit the longer it will take to dry.
- Let cool completely; store in an airtight container.

DELICIOUS DATE LOAF
This recipe belongs to Anna Olson, a very famous Canadian chef. I reduced the original amount of sugar and oil just to make them it a little lighter. It works really well for muffins, too. I do not recommend the use of baking paper cups, because the muffins will stick to them.

Tips:
- Use fresh lavender flowers. Dried lavender can be used, but it will not have as strong a flavor.
- Harvest lavender flowers just before they fully bloom. This will ensure the best flavor.
- Use unsalted butter. Salted butter will make the honey lavender butter too salty.
- Let the honey lavender butter come to room temperature before using. This will make it easier to spread.
- Store the honey lavender butter in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
Honey lavender butter is a delicious and versatile spread that can be used on a variety of foods. It is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It can also be used as a dip for fruit or vegetables. Honey lavender butter is a great way to add a touch of elegance to any meal.
