Potluck Apricot CobblerAn old-fashioned cobbler makes a hit with crowds and one of my favorite cobbler fruits is apricots. These perky golden first fruits of summer have a nice balance of sweet and tart. Fresh in-season fruit is preferred, but I have often used my stash of frozen cots from season’s past, and they work well for cobblers, as do canned. This… |

Faux Chocolate Silk PieA chocolate lover’s delight and so easy for Easter or Mother’s Day dessert. Rich and smooth, this take on French chocolate silk pie has a secret - tofu replaces heavy cream! But no one will know the difference - unless you tell! I tried this out on my unsuspecting son who avoids tofu-anything. He sampled it, then scarfed the whole… |

Upside-Down Caramel Apple PieIf there's pineapple upside-down cake, why not pie? Fall is here and why not use apples instead of pineapple? On the internet there's a few listings for this pie.

Crustless Tomato PieFrom the Good Housekeeping Test Kitchen (July 2013), this easy recipe met my needs for a novel and nutritious way to use up the last of the season tomatoes. A nice change of pace from quiche for a brunch or light supper. |

Crumbly Apple PieWhen it comes to apple pie, I love mixing up the apple variety in the filling. I use Cortland and Honeycrisp apples. Cortland's will give the filling and applesauce like smoothness. While the Honeycrisp will remain firm when cooked. Finally a buttery brown sugar topping is a fabulous variation on this classic American apple… |

Amazing Zucchini PieI came by this recipe from the Parents Action for Children web site, and as the name suggests, it is indeed “amazing.” Rather like a brunch quiche, this is one delicious way to serve summer’s bounty of zucchini. To simplify prep time, use a commercially prepared crust. Then just add a tossed salad and fruit for dessert! |
