Blueberry Pie

I remember eating my first ever blueberry pie many years ago when travelling the states.  Back then blueberries were rather scarce and I would certainly never have had enough to fill a pie.  Thankfully times have changed and we are very fortunate now to have delicious, plump blueberries grown locally and in abundance. 

This pie has a crisp, buttery crust which holds the juicy blueberry filling. It is delicious eaten straight from the oven with fresh cream. It is also one of life's great joys to have a slice the next day.

It’s just the perfect pie.

Leftover Quiche

Using Heritage Bakers shortcrust pastry makes whipping up a quiche quick and easy. I also like that you can also use up leftovers. Ingredients like cooked potatoes, pumpkin, broccoli and greens. Leftover meats such as ham, cooked bacon and sausages are fantastic. Using up those crumbs of cheese left in your fridge also works wonders in a quiche..

Beef and Cheese Sausage Rolls

Who doesn't love a sausage roll? My mum always made sausage rolls on the weekend, which were great as we were always so busy with weekend sports. We could eat them hot or cold and also great to enjoy on the go. They are quick to prepare, especially when you have sheets of Heritage bakers ready rolled flaky puff pastry.
