‘Tis the season when the farmers’ market is abundant with apples and pears. The variety is remarkable! This past weekend, I picked up some Fuji, Honeycrisp and Stayman apples. I also picked up some Bartlett pears. In addition to serving as deliciously portable snacks, apples and pears lend themselves to a wide range of dishes, both sweet and savory.
Inspired by my purchases, I tested some new recipes. This Apple Oven Cake is a tasty warm breakfast pancake. Much like a dutch pancake, it’s more “egg-y” than “cake-y” in my opinion (but delicious nonetheless!). Honey-Roasted Pears with Greek Yogurt show, once again, how roasting fruit intensifies its sweetness and gives it a smooth, almost creamy texture. Just one more reason to love fruit for dessert. Enjoy!
