¾ cup cold buttermilk 2 Tbsp brown sugar or honey 1 egg 2 cups flour 1 tsp baking powder ½ tsp salt ¼ cup butter ½ cup blueberries (fresh, frozen, or dried) sugar cardamom

Preheat oven to 375° F.

Combine flour, baking powder, and salt, in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Cut in chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in the blueberries (if using frozen, bring them to room temperature and pat them dry). Add milk, brown sugar/honey, and egg, stirring just until moist.

Place dough onto a floured surface and knead lightly until the dough is all together. Place on a baking sheet that is either greased, or lined with parchment. Form dough into an approximately ¾” thick, 9” circle. Cut dough into 12 wedges all the way through.

Sprinkle cardamom and sugar on top. Bake until golden, 18-20 minutes. Serve warm.

butter 2 Tbsp honey 3 or 4 ripe pears (whatever will fit in the pan) 1 cup plums, pitted and chopped ¼ cup butter 2 Tbsp molasses 2 eggs, separated ½ cup flour ½ tsp ground ginger 1/8 tsp salt

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease an 8” round cake tin and line the bottom with paper, then spread a thin layer of butter on the paper.

Drizzle the honey in the bottom of the pan. Cut the pears in half and remove the cores. Arrange the pear halves with the cut side down, in a circle in the pan, leaving an open circle in the middle. Put the plums over the pears, concentrating them in the space in the middle and between the pears.

In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and molasses. Beat in the egg yolks on high speed until creamy.

Stir in the flour, ginger, and salt. Beat the batter on medium speed for about a minute.

Warm the egg whites in a double boiler until about body temperature. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites on high speed until they form soft peaks. Fold the egg whites into the rest.

Pour the batter over the top of the fruit, spreading it out to cover the fruit.

Bake for 50-60 minutes. It will look juicy and bubbly, but the cake part will be firm to the touch.

Let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a serving plate and remove the paper.

Duff:

2 eggs, separated ½ cup brown sugar ¼ cup butter ¼ cup cream cheese 2 cups plums, pitted and quartered 1 cup flour ½ tsp salt

Warm the egg whites in a double boiler with a bit of the brown sugar, whisking. When they are warm, remove from heat and beat until stiff peaks form.

Beat egg yolks and a bit of the brown sugar. Cream in the rest of the sugar, cream cheese, and butter. Stir in plums. Fold in the egg whites.

Fold flour and salt into plum mixture. Pour into a well-greased 1-quart mold or bowl, and tie waxed paper loosely over the mold, or cover with foil scrunched around the edges. This is to prevent water from dripping onto the pudding when it condenses on the lid of the steamer. Place mold in steamer and steam for 1 hour or until pudding tests done.

If you don't have a steamer, you can place the mold in a large pot with water. The pot needs to be large enough that the pudding mold doesn't stick out the top. If it floats, that's fine, if not, use something underneath to stabilize it and keep it off the bottom of the pot. Place a well-fitting lid on top of the pot.

When done, remove from steamer and let cool slightly. Loosen the edges of the pudding by running a knife between the pudding and the bowl. Turn out onto the serving plate.

Sauce:

½ cup water ¼ cup honey 2 Tbsp fruit juice (or other sweet, non-dairy drink) 2 tsp arrowroot powder 2 tsp water

Mix ½ cup water and honey in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil. Boil steadily for 5 minutes. Add fruit juice to taste. Reduce heat. In a cup, mix the arrowroot with 2 tsp water until smooth. Stir into the hot liquid. Increase heat to medium-high. Heat gently for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly as the sauce thickens. Remove from heat reaches a boil.

Filling: Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the honey and mix well. Blend in the egg. Pour the filling into the crust.

Topping: Toss the ingredients together, to coat the apple slices. Place apple slices in a decorative fashion on the top of the tart. You want it to be about double layered with apple slices.

Bake 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 400° F and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown (apples are soft when pierced with a fork), and filling is almost set. Remove from oven and let cool before serving.

1 Tbsp butter 6 eggs ½ cup milk ½ tsp ground pepper ½ cup grated cheese

Put the butter in a skillet over low heat. As it melts, beat the milk, eggs, and pepper together until mostly homogeneous. Stir in the cheese.

Increase heat to medium high. Pour the eggs into the skillet and let sit for about a minute. Gently scrape along the bottom of the skillet with the flat edge of a spatula. Let sit again for about 30 seconds, then scrape again. As it loses liquid, stir it more frequently until it is all cooked.

For larger clumps and a stronger egg flavor, reduce milk to ¼ cup.

¾ cup sugar ½ tsp cinnamon ¼ tsp grated nutmeg ¼ tsp allspice 1/8 tsp salt 1 egg 4 egg whites 1 ½ cups milk 1 ½ cups half-and-half

Combine sugar with the spices in a large bowl. Add the egg and egg whites and beat on high speed for 5 minutes.

Heat 1 cup of milk, stirring constantly, until it is steaming (not boiling). Slowly mix half of that into the egg mixture. Stir the egg mixture back into the hot milk in the pan. On medium heat, cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring constantly, until it is steaming again and thickened enough to thinly coat the back of the spoon. Do not boil it.

Remove from heat and stir it frequently as it cools for 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining milk and half-and-half. Cover and chill.
