Berry Good Eats: Blackberry Recipes

Image
What do you do when your husband brings you lots of blackberries?   I bake, of course. One nice thing about the summer is all the fresh fruit available.  My husband has planted strawberry, blueberry, and blackberry plants.  He recently brought an abundance of blackberries into the house.  So, I started looking up recipes using blackberries.  I needed something simple, so I found a recipe for blackberry crisp.  I love apple crisp, so I decided to make this.  This recipe comes from Allrecipes website.  I picked this one because it received 5 stars and only used 5 ingredients. I am a less is more kind of person. And here are the results:                     This recipe was easy and delicious.  It didn't take much time to whip together. I highly recommend the dessert.

July 2022 Taste of Home Bakeable's Challenge - Peach Cobbler

Image
Summer is the time of year to enjoy all those fresh veggies and fruits. So, why not use those fresh fruits in some delicious desserts. As you may well know by now, I’ve taken the Taste of Home Bakeable’s Challenge, and this month it’s a peach cobbler.  This recipe is fairly simple and only takes 15 minutes to prep. It’s a bit different than other cobblers I’ve made. It has beaten egg whites in the topping which made it super crunchy on the top. I happen to like it but my husband isn’t a fan of egg whites and could tell by the taste and texture. The peaches I bought weren’t large so I would recommend getting a couple of extra if your peaches are not large.  Check out some of the other Bakeable’s Challenges that I’ve made like the Lemon Meringue Pie  & the Vanilla Cream Fruit Tart  . If you want to sign up for the  Take Our Monthly Bakeable Challenge | Taste of Home  you can join me and a host of others in making delicious desserts. Iva's Peach Cobbler Re...
