An early fall cobbler with blackberries bubbling in their juice beneath a golden cream biscuit. A crunchy oatmeal crisp made with mid-summer's sweet nectarines and raspberries. Or a comforting pear bread pudding made with brioche to soften a harsh winter's day. In RUSTIC FRUIT DESSERTS, James Beard Award-winning chef Cory Schreiber and Julie Richardson, owner of Baker & Spice, share their repertoire of classic fruit desserts, including crumbles, crisps, Betty's, buckles, and pies that showcases the freshest in-season fruit available. Simple, scrumptious, and always a cherished favorite, these heritage desserts are (thankfully) experiencing a long-due revival.

Summary: Rustic Fruit Desserts 2010-06-09
Comment: Every receipt I have tried, I LOVE! I really like the way the book is broken up to receipts that use fresh fruit in season. The cherry/rubarb is my favorite so far & I didn't even like rubarb before this receipt. I get hungry just thinking about it.

Summary: Great Apple Crisp with Brandy Soaked Currants 2010-02-22
Comment: Just made my first recipe for a dinner party for 8.......page 138. It was wonderful served with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream. Was not hard to make and everyone at the table and all family members commented on how terrific it tasted. I used Gala apples for mine and only had time to soak the currants for about 6 hours but they were soft and flavorful. Jan from West Chester
