Homemade rustic Italian style pie, perfect for summers, peach and blackberry crostata

Summer season in many places is the season of fresh sweet berries and fuzzy peaches and nectarines. I am no expert in making fine desserts nor do I like them very much. I prefer rustic handmade desserts which feel more wholesome and homely. Italian cuisine definitely is all for such dishes. So this peach and blackberry crostata is the answer to represent those dishes.
Peach and blackberry crostata is basically a simple and rustic pie filled with the most fun filling. The best part is making the crust and the crumble topping. It’s a very nice process and tastes oh so delicious because of the butter 🙂 The important part to remember is to use cold butter and cold water to get a flaky crust. ... “Peach And Blackberry Crostata | Dessert Recipes”

A soft fluffy cake loaded with colourful tutti frutti sounds like a fun cake to eat. I have used homemade tutti frutti in this eggless tutti frutti cake. It is completely free of preservatives and the taste is uncompromised. You can use a simple vanilla sponge cake recipe to make this eggless tutti frutti cake.
I have used wholemeal flour to make the eggless tutti frutti cake. Also I have baked it in a loaf tin making it more tutti frutti loaf than a cake. But then who’s to judge, it’s all fun to eat! Adding yogurt or buttermilk to cake makes the crumb really soft and moist. Use good vanilla to flavour your cake, makes a lot of difference. Avoid using artificial vanilla or other flavouring substances in the interest of taste and health. ... “Eggless Tutti Frutti Cake | Tutti Frutti Loaf | Cake Recipes”

Moist, melt in the mouth, sweet honey cake reminds me of childhood. This was one of the perks of growing up in the 90’s. A delicacy from the local bakery used to be a treat. Eggless honey cake has to be one of the best cakes on earth. Who agrees with me?
The oozy jam mixture on top of the honey moist cake makes it very succulent. I have used a basic eggless orange cake recipe for this cake. I sometimes also make this eggless honey cake with whole wheat flour using the recipe for whole wheat orange muffins as the base. But to get that authentic moistness I make this cake with all purpose flour. ... “Eggless Honey Cake | Bakery Style Honey Cake | Eggless Cake Recipes”
