You might be wondering why you should use a food processor instead of your regular kitchen tools. Well, there are many benefits to using one!
It's easy to make delicious baked goods with the help of a food processor.
You can easily cut down on prep time by using it instead of having to chop or grate ingredients by hand.
You can also save money by buying whole ingredients instead of pre-cut fruits and vegetables.
Easter Treats You Can Make With a Food Processor
- Hot Cross Buns
- Carrot Cake
- Easter Cookies
Tips For Using a Food Processor
Choose the right blade. If you're going to be chopping up a lot of vegetables, use the main bowl with the main blade. If you'd like perfect slices, use the slicing discs. Grating is also much easier when using a food processor compared to grating by hand. Don't forget, you can also transform your Magimix food processor into a blender by using the BlenderMix ring.
Use the pulse button if you are doing a recipe for the first time --this will help prevent over-processing and ensure that everything gets evenly chopped or sliced without being turned into mushy pulp!
Make sure you take advantage of the three bowls. These are provided for your convenience. Chop in the main bowl, slice ad grate in the midi bowl, and emulsify in the mini bowl! There's no need to wash up every time you switch up your ingredients.
Easter Recipe Ideas
Hot Cross Buns
While hot cross buns are readily available in supermarkets, they are often fillled with additives and preservatives. Nothing beats freshly made hot cross buns, and you can do it at home easily with the food processor.

Carrot Cake
There's nothing easier than a carrot cake all made in one bowl. Grate the carrots, add in the rest of the ingredients, pulse a few times, et voila! Really, there's nothing easier.
