Mairi MacRitchie is in the Highlands and Islands meeting home bakers to find out their favourite recipes using seasonal fruit. With a rich abundance of great local produce they show us how to make the most of what we've got on our doorstep. Travelling across the country from Tain to Uist Mairi sees how the classic toffee apple flavour can be adapted for a fruity loaf with soft pieces of apple throughout and a sticky caramel icing.
With brambles so readily available she tastes a recipe for an upside down cake, combining them with apples and a bramble sponge topped with a crunchy crumble topping. From her own kitchen in Uist Mairi shows us how she makes the most of seasonal produce. Using beautifully tart pink rhubarb she gives the classic French clafoutis an unusual twist and with ripe red raspberries and strawberries she adds flavour and a vibrant colour to the traditional souffle.
