Description

Sticky Fingers, Green Thumb invites your imagination to travel out of the kitchen and into the garden. Almost sixty recipes celebrate vegetables, herbs and edible flowers in cakes and other sweet snacks. Tips on how to harness their unique flavours, prep them for baking and even grow them yourself will inspire you to create flavour-packed baked treats that aren’t loaded with empty gestures. Say goodbye to mushroom risotto and zucchini fritters and hello to porcini caramel and chestnut cake, and apple cider and zucchini muffins. This is earthy, seasonal baking at its best.

Sticky Fingers, Green Thumb livens up classic baked desserts with vegetables, herbs and edible flowers. Alongside recipes for cakes, muffins, cookies, brownies, pies and more, you'll find tips on how to grow these ingredients in your own edible baker's garden.
