Sticky plum and almond tart

250 g shortcrust pastry

150 g butter,

150 g golden caster sugar

essential Waitrose Eggs

75 g ground almonds

75 g essential Waitrose self-raising flour

½ tsp baking powder

tsp vanilla extract

400 g essential Waitrose Home Ripening Plums, stoned and quartered

tbsp flaked almonds

apricot jam

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180ºC, gas mark 4. Roll out the pastry thinly on a floured surface and use to line a 23cm deep, loose-bottomed tart tin. Chill for 5 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, place the butter, sugar, eggs, ground almonds, flour, baking powder and vanilla extract in a large bowl and whisk until well blended.

Step 3

Spoon the filling into the tart case then press the plums evenly into the mixture (they will sink into the centre as the tart bakes). Scatter over the flaked almonds and bake for 40 –45 minutes until risen and golden brown.

Step 4

Melt the apricot jam with 1 tbsp water in a small pan. Brush over the top of the tart and leave to cool. Cut into slices and serve.

This filo pie is perfectly crispy and packed full of flavour. A take on the Greek dish, Spanakopita, it's easy to prepare and works brilliantly with salad, with lunches or dinners.

Spinach, pine nut & feta filo pie

butter

red onion,

spinach leaves, washed

nutmeg

essential Waitrose Free Range Eggs, beaten

feta,

g pine nuts, toasted

pot Waitrose Green Pesto With Basil

270 g Jus-Rol 6 Filo Pastry Sheets

Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6. Heat half the butter in a large pan, add the onion and cook over a medium heat for 3–4 minutes until softened. Add the spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from the heat and add the nutmeg, then leave to cool.

Stir the eggs, feta and pine nuts into the cooled spinach mixture with the pesto and season. Line a buttered 20 x 30cm oblong, deep baking tin with half the filo sheets, brushing each with a little melted butter and leaving the edges over the sides of the tin. Spoon in the spinach mixture and spread level. Fold over the edges of the filo sheets to cover the filling and brush with butter. Arrange the rest of the filo sheets crumpled over the filling to cover. Brush with any remaining butter.

Bake for 30 minutes until crisp and golden. Serve warm or cold, cut into squares.
