Peasant Girl with Veil dessert recipe
Farmer's Girl with a Veil is a classic Danish dessert that tastes absolutely wonderful!
A delicious apple porridge – which I like to make with a little extra spices – crispy and delicious rye bread crunch and a fluffy whipped cream, as well as blackberry jam which I think goes perfectly with it, but which is not an absolute must.
It is a lovely easy dessert that can be prepared well in advance of serving.
