Description:

A collection of simple and satisfying recipes for crisps, slumps, buckles, grunts, and other old-timey desserts by a beloved Portland bakery owner in collaboration with one of the region's top chefs.

Rustic fruit desserts have broad appeal and come together easily--even for inexperienced bakers
Recipes are grouped by season and showcase local fruit

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 favorite, these heritage desserts are (thankfully) experiencing a long-due revival.

This book is fabulous! My family loves the desserts. They are tasty and a great compliment to fresh seasonal food from the local farmer's market.

i am the queen of fruit crisps of all kinds, so i bought this book to expand my repetoire of fruit desserts. so far i have tried 2 pandowdy recipes, the apple and the pear ginger. in both cases the amount of liquid for the top crust was WAY OUT OF PROPORTION to the amount needed, probably by at least 2x too much. it may be that they are in the pacific north west at sea level and i am in the southwest at 6000 above, but that doesn't make much sense. so...........my advise to anyone trying the recipes is to add only small amounts of liquid into the dough at a time. it is worth the effort because the recipes are yummy if the fruits are available in your locale.
