Rhubarb, strawberry and nectarine crisp under vanilla ice cream

I'm so glad someone invented crisp ... and so glad someone put it with ice cream.

Bigger apple crumble w/whole spelt

My sister has been baking this apple crumble regularly. She did it when I was visiting her last and was telling me how she made it work with rice flour or xylitol. And she was right, her crumble was fantastic. Good news for me is that she's been actually reading my blog and found this recipe here. So, the other day, when Hania felt like a fruit cake, I dug an old recipe out and made it ... bigger and better!

Summer fruit cake

Just after I said that summer fruit is better when straight from the bush, I came across this recipe.

All-crumble almond cake

I get nervous when I don't bake anything for too long, usually two days.

Rhubarb strawberry crisp

I like rhubarb. But I didn't know Hania and Julian liked it too. This dish is full of it. I got all excited and bought more than enough the other morning, fresh from the market. My backpack was packed with the vegetable. I just started shopping and I don't have a front basket on my bike.

Apple crumble

Sunday, Jan. 27. 4 pm. Kids, husbands and cats went for a drive. I have a Sunday afternoon to myself. I'm not on the phone, not on FB, not writing e-mails. I'm baking.

Cranberry and apple cake

We loved it! I took it to my parents yesterday, even my Dad tried it and even took a second! It was gone in 15 minutes.
