Father’s connections to baked goods (7)
I believe the answer is:
pasties
'baked goods' is the definition.
(Cornish Pastie)
'father's connections' is the wordplay.
'father's' becomes 'pa's' (pa can mean dad or father).
'connections' becomes 'ties' (tie is a kind of connection).
'pas'+'ties'='PASTIES'
'to' acts as a link.
(Another definition for pasties that I've seen is " Food associated with Cornwall".)
I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
