Chef John's Fresh Berry Fool
While certainly not light on the calorie counter, this fresh berry fool recipe (from the French "fouler" meaning "to mash") is shockingly airy on the palate. The contrast between the rich, fluffy cream and the syrupy, tangy fruit makes this so much greater than the sum of its parts. Fresh berries are typical, but this would work with peeled, diced, ripe peaches.
Sharlotka
Sharlotka is a traditional Russian apple cake. I like to make it in a deep pie dish and serve it with a brown sugar glaze in a fashion similar to a pineapple upside-down cake. However, the recipe may also be used (minus the glaze) to make a single loaf, mini loaves, or cupcakes. Traditionally, it is baked in a cast iron skillet.
Old-Fashioned Apple Pie
This classic and traditional American apple pie recipe is time-tested and truly delicious! Use tart, firm apples that will hold up to baking.
