While our beloved British baking television show has taken a few creative turns these past few years, we love that the show continues to inspire home bakers around the world. Plus, it introduced us to many baked delights with roots in the UK. With this class, we're taking a step back to learn about the classic British bakes that influence today's British baking. These are classic recipes with modern flavor variations, like cakes, shortbreads, and puddings to enjoy with a hot cuppa (or a wee dram of scotch), and savory soda bread and oat biscuits (waiting to be slathered with sweet butter). Students will work together in small teams to bake these recipes and will delight in Jennifer's knowledge of the science and history of each dish.
