A long lazy breakfast with family is a nice way to start the New Year

Caraway, which is related to fennel or cumin, has a very distinct, aromatic flavour that gives the bread a savoury feel. Perfect with leftover turkey, ham and some cranberry sauce 

The perfect festive nibbles for Christmas Day grazing 

Plus, lime, coconut and white chocolate snowballs 

Make your cakes and mince now so they can mature over the coming weeks 

I have fond memories of eating treacle toffee with my grandmother - it was very tasty but not so easy on the teeth.

Bitesized bits for grasping, busy hands - including veggie and breadcrumb muffins, and mini pancake treats!

This year I am making spooky sticky tarts and almond fingers

Baking your own treats can take a little time but is much more cost-effective

The simplest vanilla custard poured, slightly warm, over stewed apple or a berry crumble is both comforting and delightful.
