Leave nut recipe for final (8)
I believe the answer is:
eventual
'final' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'leave nut recipe' is the wordplay.
'recipe' indicates an anagram.
'leave'+'nut'='leavenut'
'leavenut' anagrammed gives 'EVENTUAL'.
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for eventual that I've seen before include "Final - happening as a consequence" , "Coming at last, ultimate" , "Happening at the end of a period of time" , "Net value (anag.)" , "Money such as bail" .)
