9 tea berry recipes

Peach and berry kanten made with agar-agar and apple juice. A vegan, gelatin-free fruit jelly dessert that sets at room temperature with no refined sugar.

Bone broth caribou soup loaded with potatoes, carrots, parsnips, turnip, and cabbage, seasoned with juniper berries and white wine. Even better the next day.

Nate's mulligan stew: browned chicken simmered with rutabaga, potato, carrots, peas, and parsnips, topped with unexpected buttermilk dumplings studded with wild blueberries. Frontier comfort food.

Nothing beats a tasty stew and savory dumplings that warm you up during the winter season.

Traditional English scones bake tender, flaky rounds with raisins and a tall layered rise. Served warm with berry preserves and clotted cream for a proper afternoon tea.

Berry teatime muffins with rolled oats, brown sugar, and fresh or frozen blueberries or raspberries. Hearty, lightly sweet, and quick. Bake as standard muffins or mini muffins for tea service.

Black currant tea brownies layer cassis-infused fudge squares with a glossy berry preserve and a silky black currant tea ganache. A boozy, perfumed showstopper.

Patty's cake: a cornmeal-and-lemon tea cake with yogurt tang and fresh berries. Rustic, gently sweet, and built for an afternoon with a cup of tea.

This crumb cake is like a coffee cake, not too sweet, which fits my taste. I often eat it with a cup of coffee or tea in the afternoon. I do substitute raspberries or blackberries for blueberries depending on what berries I have on hand when I want to make it. No surprise, it comes out great every single time.
