Did someone say Chestnut?

The days are getting shorter, the temperatures are dropping and the leaves are turning golden. Put your cosiest cardi on and grab that jar of chestnut honey which is STILL in the cupboard.

A few seasonal treats to try:

Use up niche chestnut themed ingredients in my second, even more chestnutty Chocolate Chestnut Cake.
Chocolate Cookie Pear Pudding makes a happy home for stale cookies & oatcakes (chestnut spread optional).
And for something other than crumble for your autumn fruit harvest, try Autumn Eton Mess. A twist on the usual strawberry & cream combo, optionally using goat’s cheese to temper the sweetness of the fruit.
If man cannot live on dessert alone, go for something like duck and braised lentils before diving into the sweeter side of life – although a few Pickled Cherries will work a treat with the duck.
