Dessert recipes

A fantasitc recipe, I made this recipe for my kids, and my husband he loves it too.

A fresh blueberry pie with a stovetop filling where most of the berries stay whole and uncooked. Poured into a baked pie shell and chilled, it's fruity, bright, and barely sweet.

A deep dish apple pie with homemade crust and a secret: heavy cream poured through the slits mid-bake, creating a luscious sauce around every cinnamon-spiced slice.

Thin, crispy oatmeal Florentine cookies made with toasted oats, cinnamon, and just a tablespoon of flour. Lacy edges with a nutty, caramelized crunch.

Old-fashioned looped jumble cookies with cinnamon dough rolled into ropes, shaped into loops, and topped with a poured chocolate glaze. A charming heritage cookie with a fun shape.
