Easy cheesy pea fritters

If you’re missing the ‘easy cheesy’ in your life, these fritters are here to sort you! Packed with sweet peas, fresh mint, and two kinds of cheese, they’re the ultimate light spring dish. And let’s take a moment to appreciate the humble frozen pea – the unsung hero of the freezer aisle. Picked at their peak and frozen in a flash, they bring that vibrant pop of green yumness to any dish…

Coconut-lime sheet cake

Can’t get enough of coconut? Same here. We love it in this cake which has slightly retro vibes, and where coconut is represented in creamy, desiccated and extract form. With an amazingly fluffy texture and a ridiculously rich, lime-spiked, creamy frosting, it’s special enough to bring out for an occasion, but without the fuss of a layer cake...

Apple sour cream pie

If you’ve been playing along with the LSC so far, you’ll be bracing yourself for the expected “this isn’t a hard recipe” and true to form, we’re saying “this recipe isn’t hard.” Cooking is all about timing and keeping a tidy bench most of the time, and this recipe has a third factor - breaking things down into manageable sub-tasks...

American biscuits

Having never made American biscuits before, we initially imagined they’d be a bit like a scone, but they’re not really. Biscuits are loaded with butter, whereas scones contain relatively little. Some biscuit recipes use a percentage of vegetable shortening (Kremelta by any other name), but we prefer the flavour...

Cheesy breakfast sweet corn loaf

Is your dad a sweet guy or a savoury type? If you’re planning to make a fuss of him on Father's Day, that’s a detail you really need to nail down. No point making him sweet pancakes for breakfast if he’d prefer a cheesy, corn-y quick bread, loaded with roasted tomatoes, avo, a few leaves and whatever else he likes...

Everything bagel tattie scones

Take a Scottish classic, sprinkle over a popular American seasoning, then serve with eggs and smoked salmon and let the deliciousness flow! Tattie (for ‘potato’) scones are more like flatbread or griddle bread than an actual scone and they don’t rise too much. But they’re wonderfully potato-y and easy, and are the perfect foil for everything else going on here....

Rum syrup cake

When life gives you rum, you make a cake, no? Well, we do. We don’t touch rum ordinarily as it conjures unfortunate memories of scooping Dark ’n’ Stormies from a plastic bucketful (true story) in our Uni days. Which was not an occasion that crowned anyone with glory, and it’s a miracle we can still face anything flavoured ginger…
