Summary of article
From blending sauces to grating vegetables, the Kenwood food processor attachment is the perfect addition to your stand mixer. Here’s some inspiration for using the tool in the kitchen, as well as delicious dishes that you can make with your attachment.
Why use the food processor attachment?
The food processor attachment makes light work of processing ingredients and is useful for various kitchen prep tasks.
You can blend sauces and dips such as pesto and nut butters, as well as grate, shred, slice and chop vegetables in the food processor bowl. There are also six cutting discs for thick or thin slicing, fine or coarse grating, and blades to julienne and rasp vegetables.
It sits neatly on the top of your stand mixer, so you don’t need multiple kitchen machines taking up space on your worktop. The bowl is also shatterproof and easy to clean (even in the dishwasher), which is great for switching between ingredients .
This delicious Autumn Bircher is the ideal healthy breakfast or light dessert option that can be easily prepared in advance in larger quantities.
Oats, seeds and dried fruits are soaked overnight in apple juice and then served with freshly grated apple, pear and carrot using the coarse grater plate on the attachment.
Mixed nuts and seeds are also pulsed using the food processor to create a gorgeous crunchy topping. Try serving your bircher with creamy greek yoghurt and cinnamon or honey to sweeten.
Our Peanut Butter Energy Balls are a brilliant, healthy ‘grab and go’ snack.
The energy balls are really simple to make - most of the ingredients are blended together in the food processor bowl before adding chocolate chips and being shaped into balls.
They make a convenient and nutritious post workout snack that can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for whenever you need an energy boost.
Praline is an indulgent confectionery often used in French baking. Made from caramelised hazelnuts and almonds, the mixture is blended into a thick paste using the food processor attachment.
The praline can then be added to cakes such as eclairs or macarons, made into chocolates, or used in praline mousseline cream.
It’s a fairly simple recipe to follow that really pays off in flavour and adds a taste of luxury to cakes and desserts.
Vegan Rose Apple Tart
This Sticky Date, Peanut and Chocolate Slice is a quick, no-bake treat to make with Our Vegan Rose Apple Tart is a real showstopper that will certainly impress your guests.
Apples are delicately sliced using the thin slicing disc on the food processor attachment and then shaped into flowers on top of the tart.
Serve with a delicious vegan cinnamon cream made using coconut milk, pairing perfectly with the tart apples.
