Clafoutis without the alcohol

Asked on 25 May 2023 by Simon01

Hello Lindsey. I would love to make today's recipe (Apple, Prune & Armagnac Clafoutis) but our house is an alcohol free zone. Can I make with a non-alcohol substitute?

Conventional oven setting

Asked on 23 May 2023 by Sara

My conventional oven has various options for where heat comes from - top, bottom, or both. I usually use my fan oven but want to try the conventional one but which heat source option do I choose? I’m baking our favourite maple and pecan sponge from Delia’s cake book if that makes any difference
