Welsh Cakes

Welsh cakes are another version of scone that are made on a griddle. They are very good toasted.

Singing Hinnies

From the North East of England again. Singing Hinnies are another type of griddle scone made with butter, lard, and dried fruit.

Drop Scones ( Scotch Pancakes )

Scones originated from Scotland, and this is a variation known as a Drop Scone in other areas of the UK. The batter is thicker than a pancake batter.

Fillet of Pork x 2

Here are two pork recipes, one made in a frying pan, the other in the oven. Both result in tender tasty pork.

Parkin

This cake made with oatmeal is associated with Yorkshire and Lancashire. Traditionally eaten around Bonfire Night.

Ginger and Guinness Cake

My neighbour gave me this recipe. I found it a bit too dark for my tastes, so I have adapted it. The cake is very light in texture, and keeps well.

Pan Haggerty

In the Geordie language of the North East this could be described as lush. Meaning lovely or nice.

Treacle Tart

Another school days recipe for those of you with a sweet tooth. This was always a favourite of mine.
