Mairi MacRitchie is in the Highlands and Islands learning from home bakers who have a passion for food. With plenty of tips they show her the perfect recipes for biscuits to dunk in your tea and traybakes to take on an afternoon picnic. From the Isle of Skye to Inverness Mairi tastes some delicious recipes that are easily prepared. Homemade classic Bourbon biscuits are so simple to make with the help of a handy biscuit cutter, but they have twice the snap and crunch as well as a much more generous layer of chocolate buttercream.
Mairi sees how rich chocolate brownies can be made as gooey as you like with the perfect cooking time and given texture with crunchy pistachio nuts. From her home in Uist Mairi bakes some afternoon tea treats. French madeleines are a pretty addition to any cake stand and Viennese whirls will disappear from the biscuit tin in next to no time.
