2 cups flour 2 tsp baking powder ½ cup nut flour ½ tsp ground cinnamon ½ tsp ground nutmeg or mace 1-2 oranges or clementines or tangerines 12 Tbsp butter 1 cup sugar 2 eggs 1 cup plain yogurt 3 Tbsp melted butter 1/3 cup brown sugar 1 ¼ cup grated apple

Preheat the oven to 350° F.

In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, nut flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg/mace.

Peel the oranges and manually remove the pith and seeds. Blend the orange flesh in a food processor to create a thick pulp, it doesn't have to be totally liquefied. You need to get 2/3 cup of orange pulp.

In a large bowl, cut the butter into the sugar, then beat them until they are creamed together. One ingredient at a time, beat in the eggs, yogurt, and orange pulp.

Spray the bottom and sides of a large cake pan. In the bottom of the pan, spread the melted butter, then evenly sprinkle the brown sugar, then evenly spread the grated apple.

Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Spread the batter evenly over the apples. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until the cake tests done.

Let the cake cool until it has shrunk away from the edges of the pan, then turn out up-side down onto a serving tray.

Crust: 1 ¾ cup flour 1 tsp ground nutmeg ½ tsp ground cardamom ½ tsp ground ginger ½ tsp ground black pepper ½ cup butter, cut into pieces ¼ cup brown sugar ¼ cup cold water 1 egg

Filling: 4 ½ cups raw cranberries (18 oz) 1 cup plain Greek yogurt 1 cup sugar ¼ cup corn starch 1/8 tsp salt

Preheat the oven to 350° F.

Whisk together the flour and spices. Cut in the butter. In a separate bowl, dissolve the brown sugar in the water, then beat in the egg. Stir the water mixture into the flour mixture in 2 parts, forming a smooth paste. Form into a thick disk, wrap in plastic, and chill while you make the filling.

Use a food processor to coarsely mince the cranberries. Stir together all the filling ingredients.

Roll the crust dough into a thin crust and place into a 9” deep-dish pie pan. Fill with the cranberry filling. Use leftover dough to make a decorative top crust. Cover with foil and bake for 60 minutes, then remove foil and bake for 10 minutes.

2 cups flour ½ tsp salt 1/3 cup sugar ½ tsp ground nutmeg 1 Tbsp baking powder 6 Tbsp cold butter, cut into pieces 2 eggs 1/3 cup plain yogurt or sour cream 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 cup peaches, diced small (fresh, canned, or frozen)

Preheat oven to 375° F and line a baking sheet with parchment.

If the peaches are frozen, they need to be thawed and not too cold.

In a large bowl, stir together the flour, salt, sugar, nutmeg, and baking powder. Cut in the butter until there are no large chunks.

In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, yogurt/sour cream, and vanilla extract.

Stir the wet ingredients and peach pieces into the dry ingredients, until a loose, wet dough is formed.

Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the baking sheet; lightly press down the top of each one. Sprinkle the tops with sugar, if desired.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown. Let rest on the baking sheet for a few minutes before moving them to a cooling rack.

2 cups pears, chopped, with core removed 1 cup strawberries, chopped with leaves removed 2 Tbsp butter ¼ cup cream ¼ cup sour cream or plain yogurt 4 eggs ½ tsp salt ½ tsp ground allspice ½ tsp ground ginger 2 Tbsp honey

Preheat the oven to 325° F. Grease the bottom and sides of a large pie tin with 2 Tbsp soft butter.

Cook the pears in enough water to cover, over medium heat, until they are soft enough to easily pierce with a fork. Strain the fruit and put in a blender with all the other ingredients. Blend the ingredients very thoroughly, so that it is completely smooth.

Pour it into the pie tin. Bake for 60 minutes. Chill before serving.

2 cups orange juice ½ cup plain yogurt ¼ tsp salt 2 Tbsp lemon juice 1 Tbsp vanilla extract 1 cup milk ½ cup cream ¼ cup honey

Beat all ingredients together until smooth and frothy. Churn in ice cream machine according to its instructions. (This recipe is too large for my machine so I churn it in 2 batches)

2 cups plain yogurt ¼ cup honey ¾ cup frozen raspberries

Stir all ingredients together, & churn according to your machine's directions.

For my machine (Cuisinart), the bowl needs to be completely frozen in advance, then churn for 15-20 minutes.

4 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen 3 cups water 2/3 cup sugar 2 cups plain yogurt ¼ tsp ground allspice

Combine the blueberries, water, sugar, and allspice in a large pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

Cake: ½ cup butter ¾ cup raw sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract 2 eggs 2 cups fine semola 1 tsp baking powder ½ tsp baking soda ¾ cup plain yogurt ¼ cup finely chopped almonds

Syrup: 2 cups raw sugar 1 ½ cups water 1 Tbsp fresh orange zest 1 tsp dried floral tea ½ tsp lemon juice

Preheat oven to 300° F. Grease a large cake pan.

In a large bowl, mix the butter, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and beat well.

Mix the semola, baking powder and baking soda in another bowl. Add this slowly into the butter mixture alternately with yogurt.

Spread batter into the cake pan. Sprinkle chopped almonds over the top.

Bake for 30-35 minutes.

For the syrup, dissolve sugar in water over medium heat, add the lemon juice and the rose essence and bring to a boil. Let it boil for 5-7 minutes, then pour into another container. Put that in a bowl filled with cold water to cool the syrup so it doesn't overcook.

When the cake is done, slowly pour the cooled syrup over the hot cake. This works best to keep it in the pan so the syrup can be soaked into the cake. Serve the cake once it is completely cool.
