A cinnamon spice fresh pear cake captures the Taste of Fall with its moist texture, chunky pears and flavorful cinnamon. I’ve reduced the fat by replacing the oil with healthy applesauce. What a delicious way to use this season’s pears!

Deep purple Concord grapes make a very flavorful homemade grape jelly. I’m sharing the lazy-cook’s way to make simple grape jelly without adding pectin. I’m even including the easiest way to preserve it longer-term by simple water-bath canning. Delicious, homemade and makes a great gift idea too.

Peach cobbler is one of my favorite dessert recipes. This simple peach cobbler recipe uses canned peaches and is baked in a 10″ cast iron skillet. Quick enough to bake on a random weeknight yet special enough for company.

So many fun desserts are topped with pie filling. Not only for a burst of flavor, but also for pretty presentation. But today I’m just using it as topping. Buying a full can of pie filling would be a waste.
The good news is you don’t have to plunk down the money for that can of pie filling. You can easily make it yourself in minutes with a simple can of fruit for cheap.

RancherMan’s a huge ice cream fan. He would eat it every day if he could. LOL
I wanted to make homemade peach ice cream and I had some fresh peaches that needed to be used up before they went bad. So I decided to make his favorite cold sweet treat for him.

When fresh apples are in season they’re cheap, they’re fresh and they’re delicious. I like to made a fast dessert with them – spiced rum-fried apples.
