Cheese and Sweetcorn Scones

Adapted from this BBC recipe, these scones have become a staple in our house and I always have a stash in my freezer for my daughter. You can omit the sweetcorn if you are a purist and just want straightforward cheese scones. 

These scones are so good and are incredibly addictive; so much so that I usually double up the quantity when making these to ensure I don't run out immediately. This would probably make around 8 large scones, though I usually make mini scones so that they are toddler sized, in which case it makes around 16.

Roast Butternut Squash, Brussel Sprouts, and Goats Cheese Gallete

This was the first free-form pie I ever made and I have to say I am totally sold. They are easy to make, very tasty, and best of all, adaptable i.e. a good use of whatever  veg and cheese you have leftover. This can take a while to make, but you can always cut down time by making the pastry beforehand and storing in the fridge until needed, or using ready made pastry.
