Recipe Of The Week: Baklava Shortbread • The plate is lava. Baklava, to be specific. Question: What do you get when you cross Turkey's most iconic confection with Scotland's favourite baked good? Answer: A crosscultural confection made in culinary heaven. Which is precisely what our #RecipeOfTheWeek is. This Baklava Shortbread expertly marries the rich, sugary flavours of traditional Turkish baklava with the buttery texture of Scottish shortbread to present a baked treat fit for a Monday...and pretty much every other day of the week!

In a mixer, on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture and beat until combined. • Divide the dough in half and refrigerate for an hour. • Combine the honey, cinnamon stick, and vanilla bean in a small saucepan.
