Cherry clafoutis is original from France, and it's usually made with unpitted cherries, which gives the clafoutis almond flavor during the baking. But nowadays we always pit the cherries in order to eat it easier later on, so you can add a little bit almond extract, which will definitely give your clafoutis almond taste without worrying about the pits from the cherries!

Fresh peaches fill into an almond and flour crust, the sweetness, slightly sourness, and refreshing taste from the peaches go very well with the nutty crusty. It's a light, fruity and delicious dessert that fits a hot summer day wonderfully!

Inspired by the fresh peach tart recipe I made a few days ago, yesterday came out this fresh peach and plum tart recipe. This time I used a lot both freshly seasonal peaches and plums, and also made a 11-inch tart to satisfy my fruit tart craving. It came out beautiful and delicious, definitely the kind of dessert that I love to have in summer!

Fresh or frozen strawberries, both work well here, and the shortbread like crust on top gives the nice crunch with the soaked in strawberry juice. It is full of fresh strawberry flavor, and it is so refreshing and tasty. A great fruity dessert.

Honey nut flavored cream cheese spread on grilled peach halves makes a very quick and easy summer dessert. A little drizzle of extra honey tops it all off. A nice change to your typical peaches and vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

A famous Scottish style pie or tart. Plums baked in a rich and creamy custard.

This fresh strawberry pie is absolutely ultimate. It's loaded with strawberries, and packed with strawberry flavor. Best of all, you don't have to bake it. A perfect cool-fruity dessert for a hot summer day.

This delightful dessert is so good, the crust is buttery and flakey, and the pear-almond filling is scrumptious and juicy.

A bright, silky smooth fruit sauce bursting with raspberry flavor. Perfect to dress up ice cream or cheesecake and especially good with angel food cake or chiffon.

Ran out of plums and had leftover so developed this recipe to use strawberries instead of plums that the original called for.

Watermelon Sorbet recipe

A delicious and healthy dessert to make with juicy pears fresh from the orchard!

This year I switched CSAs, to one that was a bit more fruit-heavy (so I thought). It turns out, this CSA share is 75% fruit, leaving me with a whole heck of a lot of peaches. I had saved this recipe for Oven Roasted Peaches from Real Fit Mama, but it turns out that I totally bungled my grocery list, and didn’t have most of the ingredients.
