Greetings!

At this time of the year, we can't resist the temptations of the farm stand. Those piles of aromatic peaches and jewel-colored plums beckon to be eaten.

Here are three recipes, variations on the theme of summer fruit dessert. A cobbler of blueberries and peaches has a surprise burst of cinnamon under its biscuit topping. We've tucked luscious plums under a layer of crumbs nestled on top of our favorite almond cake batter. And for those who can't decide what to make, we've got a recipe for streusel that you bake ahead and add to any assortment of fresh or cooked fruit.

FROM OUR RECIPE BOX - Blueberry and Peach Cobbler with Cinnamon Biscuit Crust
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bluebery Peach Cobbler
There's so much fresh fruit at the end of the summer that we can't come up with enough ways to use it all up. Make this blueberry and peach cobbler when the peaches are very ripe but have lost their eye appeal. These sweet fruits yield lots of juice, which you may like to thicken with some starch or tapioca or let it run loose. Or make the cobble with all blueberries or all peaches.

Fluffy southern-style biscuits work well to sop up the juice. We're provided a biscuit dough recipe but purchased refrigerator dough saves one step. You can also make them in individual serving dishes, one way to dress up a dessert without much effort.

FROM OUR RECIPE BOX- Plum Crumble Almond Cake

Plum Almond Cake

Tartine Bakery in San Francisco is a must-visit for any serious foodie or just those who love a great bakery. We took inspiration for this Plum Crumble Almond Cake from a breakfast cake they sell, a recipe for which appears in their cookbook. Our favorite Almond Tea Cake batter forms the moist base for a layer of plums topped with buttery crumbs. You can use an assortment of fruit; peaches, cherries, raspberries, blueberries would all work well. Even a layer of quality fruit preserves could be used in place of the fresh fruit. As much as we'd enjoy this for breakfast, it really makes a perfect summer dessert. Slice it thinly and you can justify a dollop of cream on the side.

FROM OUR RECIPE BOX - Almond Oatmeal Streusel
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Almond Streusel

Here's a crunchy garnish that turns a few ingredients into a satisfying dessert. We've taken the goodness of crumble and added a nutty, almondy sweetness. By making this topping ahead of time, you always have it on hand and your fruit crumble is never soggy. Serve it over a simple bowl of ice cream. Sprinkle it over fresh strawberries and cream. In summer, slice the ripest peaches or plums and serve them with this crumble and sorbet or ice cream. When fall brings a bounty of pears, bake them and serve them warm with mascarpone cream and this crumble. Jazz up chocolate ice cream in the winter. Or nibble it with a cup of coffee.
