No matter what CleanTok has to say, we can all agree that whether you love to cook or are reaching for your phone’s delivery app multiple times a week, the worst part of any meal is the washing up afterwards. And the same can most definitely be said when it comes to baking. There are few better things than a freshly baked slice of something to go along with your 11am cuppa or to beat the 3pm work slump, but who wants to be left with mountains of mixing bowls, whisks and tins when all you wanted was a chocolate brownie?
Here to take the faff out of baking – and ensure that our sweet cravings are always more than sated – is food writer and blogger Jane Dunn and her latest release Jane’s Patisserie Easy Favourites. Featuring simple recipes that either take 30 minutes or less, use just five ingredients, are guaranteed crowd-pleasers or yield a small batch, the bakes all aim to take the stress out of being in the kitchen. And because we all know that while folding, whipping and mixing can be enjoyable, scrubbing a sink full of washing up never is – so these three easy bakes use just one tin.
