Christmas snack recipes
Together we snack! From cheeseboards and cheese straws to lebkuchen and tiffin, Christmas snacks are some of the best eating moments of the season. Canapés are all well and good (and we have loads of ideas), but a Christmas Day grazing table is hard to beat.
Do snacks properly this year with our festive recipe ideas, including gingerbread, devils on horseback and sausage rolls galore.
Our Glow Up mini recipes are the easy way to add festive pizzazz to all the old Christmas standards. How about a tongue-tingling hazelnut, orange and rosemary chilli oil to dip those sausage rolls in..?
