You should never skip breakfast, it's the most important meal of the day. Include cereals, fruit and milk, yogurt, kefir or buttermilk.

A Sweet Breakfast

In Sicily breakfast usually consists of sweets and coffee or cappuccino. 

Here is a Ginger Sponge pudding that I made and other sweets.

A Croissant from Buon Giorno Bio, an apricot tartlet, Fig Newtons and my Ginger Sponge Pudding. 

What's for breakfast in Sicily?

Unlike the full course breakfast of the British and Americans, Italians only have coffee, or cappuccino,  and a cornetto (croissant). Nutritionists are now criticizing this habit and are trying to convince parents to give their children cereals and milk and a fruit and educate them about the importance of a proper breakfast. 

Here are my homemade croissants, plain and with, guess what? NUTELLA!

It takes two days to make homemade croissants and it's a very tiresome procedure but they are so much better than the store bought ones, and the ones sold at the cafes. At home you know what you put in them ... good quality flour, yeast  and butter.
