B. Dylan Hollis Makes Vintage Pies | Baking Yesteryear (Penguin Random House video)

That's Food and Drink loves apple pies. Our parrot also helps us to consume some of the apples used to create apple pies.

But what if we were to tell you that there are some apple pie recipes that don't, actually, contain any real apples?

In this tutorial video baking expert, cookbook author and Tiktok and YouTube star, Bermudan B. Dylan. Thomas will show readers of That's Food and Drink how to make two such pies via the magic of the Penguin Random House YouTube channel:-

 

Thank you B. Dylan Hollis and Penguin Random House for sharing this on YouTube.

(I'm going to be ordering my copy of Baking Yesteryear later this week.)

Decades covered are the 1900s right through to the 1980s. 

The book is available via Amazon and other bookshops/bookstores. The RRRP in Pounds Sterling is £20.00, the Amazon price is £15.49, or £9.99 on the Kindle format.

Baking Yesteryear is a baking cookery book written by baking enthusiast and TikTok and YouTube star B. Dylan Hollis. 

It covers interesting baking recipes from throughout the 20th century

If you'd like to know what baking recipes that your grandparents and great-grandparents made and have a go at baking them for yourself, then this book is for you. 

In it B. Dylan Hollis highlights some of the most unique baking treats of yesteryear.

Take a trip back in time on a delicious jaunt through the 100 years of the 20th century as Dylan shows you how to bake vintage treats, many of them long-forgotten baking gems.

He has selected the top of these recipes for this bakebook, with top recipes from each decade.

However, there are some recipes included that might not have stood the test (or taste?) of time as they are said to be spectacularly dreadful! But why not give these a try, too? You can't say you weren't warned!

A few of Dylan's favourites are:

- 1900s Cornflake Macaroons
