Mary returns to the city where she learned to cook – Paris! It is a place that lives and breathes food, and Mary wants to sample the very best of it. Where better to start than a fromagerie to buy cheese for her own version of a melting, crunchy croque monsieur.

Next, under the spire of the Eiffel Tower, Mary enjoys the perfect bistro lunch, all washed down with a drop of fine wine, before she heads to one of the city’s favourite creperies to finesse her technique – whipping up the classic lemon and sugar crepe.

Heading to one of Paris’s bakeries, Mary is shown the underground secrets of perfecting croissants and producing the masses of baguettes that are baked fresh every day. Inspired by the sweet pastries she spots in Parisian patisserie windows, Mary makes her own brioche and apple frangipane tart. This is served up alongside a succulent slow roast leg of lamb with ratatouille and an elegant starter of a crab and herb blinis.

  1. Tried this and it's a great dessert to make. The brioche at the base is a brilliant idea.

  2. Will definitely try this, looks gorgeous and very easy to make, whenever you feel out of sorts, watch Mary Berry!! very comforting ☺ absolutely love her xxx

  3. What an excellent recipe! Love this because I don’t have to make the pastry base (which usually takes 10 billion years)

  4. How much butter do you use if you don’t give the amount of butter. That recipe sounds delicious and I would like to make it. Please tell me how much battery you using. Thank you

  5. خیلی زیبا..خیلی دوسداشتم..دوسدارم کتاب شما رو بگیرم…توایران..نمیدونم کدام شهر هست ک کتاب اشپزی شما رو میفروشن…ممنون بانو

  6. Fattening with all that endless butter. And barely any fruit. It’s an empty dessert really. I think this could be assisted by adding a good layer of shredded apple underneath the top layer of slices. It might just cut the pain in two.

  7. I absolutely love to watch and listen to Mary Berry. She just has that peaceful way of explaining everything to you. I would much rather watch her than Paul Hollywood any day. Would love to see more of her cooking here in the US❤️

  8. Waitrose sells a large round dish which has a wavy top ,it’s £15 . It’s from the John Lewis range it would be perfect for this apple pudding they do a smaller one but it’s more like for a dish for egg and bacon pie..

  9. If you're going to go to a shop to buy brioche, you may as well just buy a ready made pudding 🙄

  10. Wow, I can buy brioche in the shop!
    Hurray I no longer have to trotte to Paris for it? Pardieu je n’y aurais jamais pensé.
    Et surtout il ne faut jamais confondre almond extract with almond essence.
    I never used almond essence whatever that is. The patronising never stops. Ouf.

  11. I made this today it’s incredibly easy to put together even with a broken shoulder! The only thing I need to help with was cutting the apple it came out looking perfectly scrumptious and tasted even better! I served it with crème fraîche just to cut through the sweetness of the glaze. The family were very impressed!

  12. Yum yum yum!! I love apple pudding, especially when it’s Mary related. She’s such an inspiration to me. Keep up the good baking Mary 😊😊
