The Hebridean Baker

After an incredibly successful debut cookbook, Coinneach is serving up a fresh selection of exciting new recipes, charming stories and breathtaking photography from the Hebridean Islands. With his family, community and a few household names (including Westie pup Seoras), the Hebridean Baker takes inspiration from Celtic mythology, family history and some of his favourite occasions to bring us nourishing and flavourful dishes with a story to tell.

Cosy up with a Hot Toddy Bundt Cake or a Cullen Skink Tart and enjoy a dose of Hebridean Hygge. Reviving classic recipes and showing us all that Scotland's larder has to offer, Coinneach uses fresh and local produce to transform well known dishes into rustic modern fare. Alongside his signature hearty recipes like Beef Cheek with Dumplings, Cock-a-Leekie Soup and Treacle Toffee Banoffee there are opportunities to impress with Bradan Rost Pate on Blinis, Hogmanay Whisky Espresso Martinis and a spectacular Queen of Puddings.

Filled with inspiration from Nordic bakes to Granny Ann's Wedding Banquet, this book is absolutely filled to the brim with recipes to explore, stunning landscapes and Gaelic words of wisdom to bring a breath of fresh Scottish island air to your kitchen. Including some special guest appearances, there is something for everyone in this lovingly crafted collection of homemade delights.
