The Best Bakes for World Baking Day
Rising on the 17th of May, World Baking Day is quite literally what it says on the tin - a day to celebrate all things baking! From cookies to cakes, or whatever you bake, this is your sign to stay in your pyjamas and spend the morning enjoying your fresh-from-the-oven bakes.
- The Cyberjammies family have whisked together our favourite baking recipes for you to (taste) test… There is nothing quite like the smell of freshly baked cakes wafting through the house. Have a few star bakers who want to get their oven mitts on? Fairy cakes are the bake for you. This timeless classic is forgiving enough for beginner bakers and allows each family member to decorate their own cupcakes the way they want to - from pink food colouring to a pile of sprinkles, the floor is yours!

- The Plum, Blackberry and Bay Friand Bake from Yotam Ottolenghi's SIMPLE cookbook is another oven favourite. The whisked egg whites and little flour make this bake light, whilst the ground almonds keep it moist. A delicious alternative to a crumble with the flexibility of swapping in whatever fruit is in season at the time. Find the recipe at www.ottolenghi.co.uk/recipes/plum-blackberry-and-bay-friand-bake.
- Next up aren’t just plain cookies, they’re Jamie Oliver’s Sophisticated Chocolate Chip cookies. Using fresh rosemary, black pepper, and nutmeg to trick tastebuds, while coconut sugar, molasses, and flaxseeds provide the perfect chew. This vegan recipe is a savoury spin on the traditional chocolate chip and should always be enjoyed when warm from the oven. Make the baking more fun with matching pyjamas for everyone. The Cyberjammies Family Collection has prints and patterns to suit the whole family. What’s better, they are made by a team of true nightwear experts with over 150 years of combined experience, meaning impeccable quality, repetitive washability and excellent value are always in the recipe.
