Continue ReadingA classic strawberry rhubarb pie, with my easy buttery flaky pie crust, and a perfectly sweet, with a hint of tart filling! Are you a rhubarb fan?

However, it marries perfectly with strawberry to make a deliciously pink filled pie. For this recipe I used my classic pie dough and paired it with an easy blend of strawberries and rhubarb, to make a pie that everyone can enjoy. It’s perfect for…

A few weekends ago I went strawberry picking, so the berries used in this tart are farm to table. Though they didn’t grow rhubarb on this farm, they did have some at their little farm store,…

It tastes a bit like a strawberry shortcake, and is sooo easy to eat! My mom loves this cake, so I’ll be making it for dessert for Mother’s day brunch this year.

A chewy, fudgy brownie covered in a shiny chocolate ganache, and topped with rainbow covered chocolate chips. This skillet brownie is out of this world! Ready for some nostalgia?

Top with some fresh whipped cream and pomegranate arils/berries, and you’re all…

It’s basically any fruit that has a fleshy pulp on the outside, and a single shell, that surrounds a seed, on the inside. So, cherries (!), peaches, plums, etc. I often have a hard time deciding what my favorite baking season is. On the one hand, there’s summer – which gives us alllll the cherries, and berries, and stone fruits, and just everything amazing. Then, there’s Fall, which, I mean, is basically a food blogger’s dream. It’s not too hot outside so you…
