The last of my frozen sour cherries are now gone, No. 664 Summertime Sour Cherry Crisp marks the end of summer – sweet Summertime Sour Cherry Crisp.

SIMPLE DESSERT

I love the simplicity of this crisp recipe. Just mix the cherries with the 1 tablespoon of flour and sugar then turn into the baking pan.

CLASSIC CRISP TOPPING

Next make the crisp topping by mixing the flour, oats, brown sugar and butter together with your fingertips to create small marble-sized pieces.

Sprinkle the crisp topping over the cherries and bake-now that’s a beautifully simple dessert. Bake and remove from oven.

Brown Butter Sugar Baked Peaches & Salted Ginger Granola

Peaches the best part of summer here simply roasted with butter & brown sugar then topped the Salted Oat and Ginger Granola. Recipe No 659 Brown Butter Sugar Baked Peaches & Salted Ginger Granola.

PEACHES

This one word says summer. Roasting peaches simply with butter and brown sugar creates a dessert to remember. The butter browns and keeps the peaches soft and tender.

SALTED GINGER GRANOLA

The crunch from the salty granola offsets the sweetness of the peaches. The simple granola topping is made with pantry staples. The salty-ginger taste is fantastic. Do not pass on making the topping.

Baked Rhubarb with Labne Yogurt

Baked Rhubarb with Labne Yogurt | Bijouxs Little Jewels

Every Spring the rhubarb shows up at the famers markets, the early harvest is the best. The taste is very tart and mostly rhubarb is used for pies, tart, and jams, or baked here with a sprinkling of sugar. No. 652 Baked Rhubarb with Labne Yogurt in the Membership Collection.

RHUBARB

Not the first spring vegetable you think of, but Rhubarb’ tart stalks are wonderful when baked or cooked until soft and sweetness with sugar. Most people have tried Strawberry Rhubarb pie, which one of my Grandmother’s regular pies. She baked a pie every Friday to have on the ready for weekend guests. We grew rhubarb in her tiny LA garden which made it fun as a child to head out to the garden and cut some stakes. Of course, I did take a taste, wow was it bitter!

SIMPLE RHUBARD RECIPE

This baked rhubarb recipe is one of the easiest introductions for rhubarb. The stalks are mixed with sugar, vanilla bean paste with lemon rind strips. Just pop it in the oven for about 20 minutes until tender. Do not over-bake, the rhubarb will get mushy.

Serve with labne yogurt lightened with some whipped cream. The original recipe called for chopped pistachios on top, but I sprinkled a little cinnamon sugar instead. If you find the rhubarb still to tart place a dollop of strawberry preserves on top as well.

LEMON BROWNIES

OK, who does not love a brownie? Think outside the box to a lemon brownie-same tender cakes but with a light lemon glaze. The technique is basically the same as a chocolate brownie, but uses lemon infused sugar and lemon extract. A simple one-bowl mix and off to the oven to bake.

PAMPERED CHEF BROWNIE PAN

I was gifted from a neighbor her extra Pampered Chef Brownie Pan. I was not familiar with these pans, but all her brownies were perfectly sized. You can use the pan to make many other recipes in single serve sizes. Single-serve bake brownies are the way to go. Mine shown here have crispy brown edges which I did not mind, all from my ancient oven that seems to burn everything:) These can of course be bake in a standard 8×8 pan.
