Baking Recipes

	Banana Bread Marie's recipe for banana bread is delicious, rich and moist and has chopped pecans to add an extra nuttiness.
	Battenberg Cake I remember this delicious teatime treat from when I was a kid growing up in England. I've tried a few recipes and this one is the best.
	Black Midnight Chocolate Cake Marie has made this cake for years, we really can't remember where the recipe originated, but it is rich, moist and very chocolatey - just perfect for a birthday party!
	Blueberry Oat Muffins Another great muffin recipe! Blueberries and buttermilk give a great flavour to these traditionally favourite muffins . Try them with cranberries for a change.
	Boiled Raisin Muffins These muffins have a truly delicious flavour, not unlike old fashioned gingerbread. My wife remembers her mother making this recipe regularly when she was young.
	Butter Tart Squares Marie has made this recipe for years as part of her Christmas baking. The squares are succulent and delicious and our family Christmas wouldn't be the same without them!
Carrot Nut Cake A great carrot cake recipe, enhanced by the addition of walnuts.
	Carrot Orange Cake A version of carrot cake with orange that is a family favourite! This is actually a very low-fat recipe and it tastes great.
	Chocolate-Nut Banana Muffins This is a delicious way to use up over-ripe bananas, and everyone knows that bananas and chocolate are one of the world's best flavour combinations.
	Chocolate Zucchini Cake Grated zucchini adds richness and moistness to this great bundt cake recipe. Technically zucchini is an unripened fruit which explains the popularity of its use in baking.
	Christmas Cake This is a beautiful moist cake with a heavenly aroma and rich flavours. Try to make it at least a month ahead of Christmas, so you can 'feed' it with brandy.
	Cranberry Scones Every bit as delicious as English Scones, these are a great favourite with our family. Scones are probably the easiest comfort and luxury food there is!
	Cranberry Squares Not just for Christmas! These fruity cranberry squares are great as a dessert with ice cream or as individual cakes.
	Croatian Walnut Roll The most delicious bread, or cake we have ever tasted! This recipe makes two loaves as shown and it is fantastic!
	Date Squares (Matrimonial Cake) Date Squares are a traditional Christmas treat in many families - the delicious date filling is sandwiched between two crumbly flour and oatmeal layers.
	Dutch Apple Cake with Pecan Streusel Topping A gorgeous spongy cake with a layer of apples and a rich streusel topping with pecans. In some ways this is Apple Crisp taken to a whole new level! The pecans are my own addition to this classic recipe.
	English Fruit Cake Our version of a classic English Fruitcake.... great for afternoon tea or as a nutritious snack!
	English Scones Just the thing for a cold winter evening treat, or for an afternoon tea in Summer! English scones with fresh Devon cream and raspberry jam.
	Frostings and Icing Includes basic frosting, maple frosting, orange butter frosting and double boiler frosting for use on sweet breads or cakes.
	Gingerbread with Pecans and Raisins A soft spongy, cake type gingerbread made with light cream cheese replacing some of the butter and crushed pecans and juicy raisins for a great texture.
	Guinness Chocolate and Walnut Cake This is a wonderfully rich, moist chocolate cake with the surprise ingredient of Guinness! It has an incredibly rich chocolate flavour and also tastes fabulous with butter and Cheddar cheese.
	Gumdrop Cake This recipe for an unusual and beautiful fruit cake comes from Susan McGoldrick. The gumdrops become nice and soft after baking so that slicing the cake is no problem.
	Home Made Cinnamon Buns Cinnamon buns are one of the most irresistible sweet breads. There is nothing to compare with the wonderful aroma of fresh baked cinnamon buns!

	Spiced Nectarine Cake This is a delicious lemon sponge cake with a spiced nectarine topping. Delicious with English custard if you wish, as a dessert. You can substitute other fruits for the topping, too.
	Oatmeal Spice Cake A classic cake that is very easy to make. Use our Maple Frosting or your own frosting recipe to finish.
Old English Gingerbread English gingerbread is an old-fashioned favourite that is still enjoyed by kids today! This is a soft spongy gingerbread, rather than the cookie-type that is used for gingerbread houses.
	Orange Pumpkin Cake with Cranberries A great, easy to make cake that the whole family will enjoy.
	Pumpkin Cupcakes Great for Halloween or at any time of the year, these little cupcakes will be an instant hit with the kids. Decorate with cream cheese frosting and sprinkles.
	Sarah's Carrot Muffins Carrot muffins - great anytime, even for breakfast! These are a little different because of the addition of sunflower seeds.
	Scottish Shortbread A delicious shortbread recipe from Sarah McGoldrick. Shortbread is simplicity itself, and non-purists (like me) have been known to add rogue ingredients such as dried cranberries to the basic recipe.
	Strawberry Flan Strawberry Fruit Flan is very easy to prepare - try various fruits that are in season to make different versions.
	Streusel Coffee Cake Another family favourite that Marie has made for years, great as a snacking cake or as a dessert.
	Swiss Roll An old stand-by that is great as a cake, or as a dessert with custard. Great for use in making English Trifle.
	Walnut Praline Coffee Cake Truly decadent and absolutely delicious, the secret ingredient to this cake is strong black coffee as well as home made walnut praline. It's a great recipe for any special occasion.
	Williamsburg Orange Cake We had lost the recipe for this family favourite until recently - here it is back again!
