Favourite walnut recipe

Does anyone have a good walnut recipe they would like to share? My tree has produced a bumper crop and I'd like to use them for once (rather than having a bowl out a Christmas and the rest going to waste)

or a Waldorf salad?

Add them to a banana cake mix?

We love walnuts - use them loads Smile

Pear, blue cheese and walnut salad. You can use figs instead of the pears too.

Great. Walnut pesto now on the menu for the weekend.

I have pears so the salad sounds good. Need to check the fig tree.

Jealous of your lovely harvest!
You're in the South of France?

I was just away to suggest chicken Waldorf salad - fond memories of this as it was the first dish we ever made in Home Ec at school - it was the first dish anyone made for years and years, I wonder if it's still on the menu/syllabus 25 years later!

I also like chopping walnuts and adding them to chic chip cookies, brownies and crumble topping

Of course - brownies! Why didn't I think of that.

I'm in western France - near La Rochelle.

Chopped and used as a coating before frying pork chops.

Added with apricots to a tagine.

Served with cubes of cheese for aperos.
