Juicy bites of pineapple, mixed with chewy oats and sweet coconut to give this Pineapple Baked Oatmeal a fun tropical twist. When the idea for this oatmeal first popped into my mind, I couldn’t wait to try it. My boys went crazy over this breakfast last week and begged for it again just a couple of days later. As it turned out, I liked it every bit as much as the kids did! I love the convenience of making oatmeal for breakfast; whether...

I love this method of baking fruit. I followed Deborah Madison’s recipe for an all-butter crust and it was perfect. The outer crust was...

Turtle Cheesecake with Caramel, Chocolate, Pecans, and an Oreo crust is a dessert that gets talked about long after the plates are cleaned. Sweet, decadent, and almost magically delicious, this cheesecake steals the show. I make this Turtle Cheesecake only once or twice a year and it is always by request.

I love a warm apple dessert spiced with cinnamon and slightly sweetened but I don’t love eating the soupy dish that sometimes masquerades as an “apple crisp.” This fruit-filled dessert recipe is not at all soupy, with soft apples covered with just enough crunchy topping to make it perfect. All by...
