Treacle Tart

I love The Great British Bake Off. Really, I do. It’s not only really good Tuesday evening television – a welcome twist on the regular (and crap) X Factor-style reality shows, but it’s made baking cool again. It’s no longer a hobby confined to just cute old grandparents or the women of the WI. I for, one, am all for this development as my numerous blog posts indicate!

Practise makes perfect, and what better way to improve my baking skills than if I attempted some of the recipes from the show? This week was Tart Week, and for the technical challenge the contestants had to produce a treacle tart, using Mary Berry’s very own recipe. The BBC website had a link to the recipe, I had 2 homemade white loaves almost ready to throw out, it’s Harry Potter’s favourite dessert and quite frankly it would have been rude for me to not give it a go!
