Singing hinnies
Hailing from the North East, singing hinnies are similar to Welsh cakes but without added sugar, as the sweetness comes from dried fruit. Hinny is an affectionate dialect term for ‘honey’, mostly used for women and children, while the ‘singing’ part of the name comes from the sizzling sound these make on the griddle pan as they cook. Traditionally they would be made with lard
