Cheese-Onion-Pie-4-266x266

Ingredients

  • 1 kg onions – roughly chopped in chunks
  • 1 kg potatoes –well scrubbed
  • 30g Avonmore Butter
  • 100ml Avonmore Milk
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 x 250ml carton Avonmore Cooking Cream
  • 150g Avomore Cheddar Cheese – grated

Directions

  1. Steam or boil the potatoes until they are tender
  2. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a heavy bottomed pan that can go in the oven, add the onions and sprinkle over the fresh thyme. Cook the onions slowly over a low heat for 30-40 minutes until they have turned a deep, golden brown colour, turning them occasionally.
  3. Drain the potatoes and roughly chop them in the pot with a knife, leaving some chunks, add the butter and milk and season well with salt and pepper, stir well to combine
  4. Top the onions with the potatoes and pour over the contents of the carton of Avonmore Cooking Cream, sprinkle with the cheese and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 30 minutes
  5. This is a great dish for a meat free night, served with lots of hot, buttered kale and broccoli. Alternatively it makes a hearty meal to add to some meaty sausages or pork chops, enjoy it immediately to make the most of the creamy potatoes and sweet onions.

Flahavan’s White Chocolate Drizzled Berry Oat Bars


flahavans
Take a break from the pre-Christmas prep and bake up a batch of these moreish White Chocolate Drizzled Berry Oat Bars – the perfect snack to enjoy in front of your favourite family movie this afternoon 🙂 #FlahavansOats

Serves 12 Oat Bars|Takes 35-40 minutes

Ingredients:

4 tbsp coconut oil
2–3 tbsp maple syrup
3 tbsp nut butter
200g Flahavan’s Progress Oatlets
50g blueberries
50g raspberries, cut in half

Drizzle:
50g Butlers White Chocolate with Coconut & Almond Bar
1 tsp coconut oil

Method:

Preheat oven to 160°C (140°C Fan/325°F/Gas Mark 3) and line
a 20cm (8 inch) square baking tin with parchment paper.

Melt the coconut oil, maple syrup and nut butter together in a
large saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until
the mixture is smooth and well combined. Remove from the
heat, then add the oats and stir to coat thoroughly. Gently fold
in the berries.

Spread the mixture into the prepared baking tin, then press
firmly with the back of a large spoon so the mixture is even
and well packed. Bake until the sides start to turn golden
brown, about 18–22 minutes.

Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely in the
baking tin. Chill in the fridge for at least an hour.

Prepare the drizzle by melting the white chocolate with
coconut and almond in the microwave in 10–15 second bursts,
stirring in between, until the chocolate has mostly melted.

Remove from the microwave and stir until the residual heat
has melted the remaining chocolate. Add the coconut oil and
stir until the drizzle is smooth. Drizzle over the top of the bars
with a spoon.

Remove from the tin, then use a large sharp knife to cut into
bars. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
