Tha M脿iri NicRisnidh a' siubhal na G脿idhealtachd is nan Eilean a' coinneachadh ri na b猫iceirean is fhe脿rr. Tha i a' faighneachd d猫 ghabhas fuine nuair a tha am frids falamh agus nach eil dad agad ach na th'air fh脿gail an c霉l a' phreasa. Eadar Ste貌rnabhagh san Eilean Dubh, ch矛 i d猫 n矛 b猫iceirean nuair a dh'fheumas iad am mac-meanmna a chuir an s脿s, gun cus aca mun l脿mhan. Gheibh i blas de lof bheairteach dinnseir le c貌mhdach cn貌-ch貌c貌 - a sheasas fad seachdain, sin ma sheachnas tu i - agus briosgaidean, milis le s霉gh mhalpais, agus l脿n r貌saidean. A-staigh an Uibhist tha M脿iri a' d猫anamh ceic bun-os-cionn le sirisean is pineapple - thig sin 脿s a chrogan, agus chan eil an c貌rr a dh矛th ach min, 矛m is si霉car, airson na c猫ice, a tha aotrom agus tais. Agus ma tha mionaid aice, n矛 i macar霉naichean traidiseanta le cn貌-ch貌c貌 - bi iad deiseil ann an tiotan ma nochdas duine le sannd air cupa t矛.

Mairi MacRitchie is in the Highlands and Islands meeting the nation's best home bakers. She is on the hunt for recipes that you turn to when the fridge is empty and you have to depend on what's in the cupboards at home.

From Stornoway to the Black Isle she sees how bakers get creative when they have to make do with what they have in the store cupboard. She tastes a rich gingerbread slab covered in desiccated coconut that can be kept for over a week and also samples sweet maple syrup cookies with raisins and dates.

At home in Uist, Mairi shares her recipe for a retro upside down pineapple and cherry cake. All you need are sponge ingredients and tinned pineapple to make this light pineapple-flavoured sponge with a moist layer of fruit at the bottom. She also makes traditional coconut macaroons that can be thrown together in minutes for unexpected guests calling in for a cup of tea.
