HOLESOME BAGELS

Bagels sprinkled with poppy, sesame or coarse sea salt are so versatile. Split in half, try topping with thickly spread cream cheese and chopped fresh dates. Mmm… my mouth is watering already.

It’s also your big chance to do a satisfying loop-de-loop with your index finger when making the classic central bagel hole. It will be an enlightening experience, no doubt!

Lemon Curd

Great on scones, muffins, toast, in Danish pastries or on any buttered bread… Lemon Meringue, Jammy tarts and for the filling in a Victoria Sandwich — as well as being a great dressing in combination with other ingredients on salmon, for example. Such a versatile recipe!

Chocca Blokka Cakies

Although these have the appearance of chocolate chip cookies, the advantage is that they are a lot lighter and more like a condensed Genoa-ish sponge— or Pound Cake— as well as being loaded with satisfyingly decent chunks of milk chocolate.

Not Cross Buns

I can never get enough of ‘em—bunnies that is! And right on cue, here’s a recipe for no, not Hot X Buns but Not X Buns! Hot X Buns are traditionally eaten at Easter time but if, like me, you enjoy them all year round, then this is specially for you.

Marzipan
