The Fabulous Baker Brothers Season 2 Full Episode Guide
The boys don their Christmas jumpers and re-light the wood-fired oven for a very special Yuletide episode featuring a flurry of festive recipes... and not a sprout in sight. Forget stuffing the turkey and icing the cake - Tom and Henry have devised 12 fantastic recipes to celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas in true Baker Brothers style. They show how to cook your own presents as well as serving up classic cocktails with a twist; tasty Christmas crackers you can eat; whisky-smoked salmon; the ultimate Christmas morning breakfast; and a 'medicinal' hangover cure to top all hangover cures. And their alternative to a roast turkey dinner is the most indulgent Christmas bbq ever - luscious lobster with a garlic brandy butter and home-made venison kebabs washed down with spicy mulled cider, all served outside under the stars.

Tom and Henry make Viking flatbreads, a slow-roasted lamb wrap and toffee apple yorkies for an eaterie in the heart of York. The Cornish Bakery in York is run by Richard and Fiona Parkinson. Tom and Henry want to help the bakery stand out. Their first recipe is toffee apple yorkies - sweet, mini Yorkshire puddings served with caramelised apple, vanilla ice cream and a toffee sauce. Their second dish takes inspiration from one of York's most notorious residents, Guy Fawkes. Gunpowder Lamb is a spicy, slow-roasted lamb wrap served with a fiery carrot, coriander, chilli and red pepper salad. As York is also famous for its connection with Vikings, for their third and final dish, Tom and Henry come up with the idea of Viking flatbreads - a spelt pizza-like base topped with red onion, sorrel, curd cheese and delicate marjoram oil baked in the oven.

Tom and Henry are on home turf, making fish pate, a Tory cobbler and pear lovelies for The Chestnut Tree tearoom in the centre of picturesque Bourton-on-the-Water. Henry tea-smokes a local trout to make a tasty pate. Then there's a Tory cobbler - not only a nod to the political leanings of the area, but the local pheasant - that is topped with miniature dumplings with flecks of green to represent the Cotswolds' rolling hills. For the final recipe, the boys come up with some pear lovelies - little pear cakes with pear slices poached in local pear cider and topped with a cream-cheese frosting.

At Jean Haslam's Deli Café in Stratford-upon-Avon, the boys try out slow-roasted pulled pork, a beef sandwich and Juliet's fool - a decadent raspberry and chocolate pud.

Exmouth in Devon has all the charms of the classic English beach resort: sun, sea, sights and two miles of breathtaking beaches. But Tom and Henry are convinced people would prefer more locally inspired flavours.
