Enid Blyton Jammy Buns Recipe
We’re continuing with our series of Enid Blyton inspired recipes by drawing the focus to jammy buns. They made their appearance several times in Blyton’s boarding school series – Darrel, Sally, Alicia and all the other characters from Malory Towers chowed down on them at midnight feasts and after lacrosse matches.
