5 Recipes you will want to try from The Unofficial Bridgerton Cookbook by Lex Taylor

The Household Hasty-Bake Oatmeal Pies with Sugared Berries

If you are looking for a dish that is quick and relatively easy to make, while also looking elegant then this one is for you. The recipe is for either four mini pies of one larger pie and it takes less than an hour in the kitchen. This is also one of those recipes that you can make your own, especially in terms of the sugared berries, which are as much a garnish, as they are a fun addition to the pie.

Anthony's Approved Chicken Croquettes

Made with a chicken dry rub and chicken drumsticks, this is a recipe for even the most discerning of chicken lovers. This dish elevates the idea of fried chicken in an elegant way that even a picky Bridgerton will love. Not only is this the kind of dish we would eat any day of the week, but it is also one that is extra crispy for those of us who love a lot of crunch with our wings.

Queen Charlotte's Puff Pomeranians

We love a good puff pastry and that is exactly what this dish is. The fact that it has a fun name is an added bonus that we can't resist. And of course, we love that this one is inspired by not only the queen, but also her beloved dogs. This is an elegant treat that is perfect for Afternoon Tea or even as a delicate dessert after a long day of socializing. As far as sweet treats go, this is a win.

Rumor-Stirring Blueberry Lavender Fizz

There are not just food recipes in this cookbook, there are also beverages as well. And this fizz drink is an elegant offering that will have any lady of the ton enamored. This is a non-alcoholic drink that looks beautiful in the glass and tastes amazing on the tongue. It was interesting putting this drink together as it didn't seem like these ingredients would work, and yet they did. This is a fun sip any time of the year, but it is especially perfect for those summer get togethers.

Winning Pig Bacon Bites

Think of these as mini hand pies that have decadent bacon in the center. As soon as the cookbook opened to this recipe, it was a must-try. This is definitely a more intense recipe than some of the others, but it is so worth trying thanks to the combination of bacon and maple syrup in the center. The dough itself is reminiscent of a flaky masterpiece that perfectly compliments the meaty insides. Honestly, if you love bacon, then this is a no-brainer in terms of recipes to try from The Unofficial Bridgerton Cookbook.
