Clafoutis is a simple and easy to make recipe that has luscious texture reminiscent of a pudding or a flan. It’s basically pouring a pancake batter over fruits. Its richness pairs perfectly with any fruit you use, whether fresh or frozen. Every bite is delicate and decadent at the same time. You only need a handful of simple ingredients and 45 minutes to have this on your plate. Serve it as dessert or breakfast, totally your call!

If I’m going to be honest (as I’m always with you!) we ate this for breakfast. Please don’t judge and remember this is a safe place to share : ) Maybe it’s because when I first learned about clafoutis many years ago was through Ina Garten’s book “Barefoot in Paris”, and she…

Rustic Pear and Blueberry Tart

This flaky and buttery pear and blueberry rustic tart is a dream! The sweet and tart flavor of the blueberries enhances the sweet earthy notes of pears. A layer of sweet cream cheese not only adds more texture and flavor but also protects the crust from getting soggy. Bits of bleu cheese and roasted walnuts add so much contrast and make this tart extra flavorful. It’s a simple pleasure that you can have anytime!

I’m so happy I made this pear and blueberry tart! It’s been a while since I’ve made my buttery and flaky pie crust. I guess I ate too much pie in previous years so pies and I decided we needed a break. But who’s kidding? I missed them a lot and when I took out my food processor and made a crust in less than 10 minutes, I realized…

Tres Leches Tiramisu

Two of the best desserts in the world combined! This no-bake tres leches tiramisu is made with traditional ladyfingers that are soaked in a three milk syrup, as in the traditional tres leches cake. This is an insanely rich and creamy tiramisu that never gets soggy because the syrup is thick and velvety. That’s why this decadent dessert is so delicious! It’s a delicate combination that celebrates the beauty and simplicity of using everyday ingredients in unexpected ways.

I think tiramisu is one of those desserts that can be intimidating but in reality it’s ridiculously easy to make. You don’t have to turn the oven on, which I never mind but still is one step less, and requires simple everyday ingredients…

Jumbo Banana Blueberry Muffins

So many of my favorite things for breakfast in one single bite! Bananas, blueberries and almonds! These Jumbo Banana Blueberry Muffins have almond in the batter and are made with some almond flour as well. They’re so tender and crumbly! The top is crunchy thanks to a nice layer of Demerara sugar over them! You only need one bowl, a whisk and a wooden spoon, that’s it! NO mixer or special equipment required. And the cool thing with these is that you can make the batter the night before and just bake them the next morning.

When I wake up with that rush for making muffins, I know it’s going to be a nice, warm and slowly paced morning. I love the idea of taking a glance at different corners of my kitchen and being inspired to bake a fresh batch of muffins with what I already have. This morning I happened…

Blueberry Cream Cheese Sweet Rolls

These sweet rolls are bursting with blueberry flavor in each bite! They’re filled with a spread of cream cheese and a homemade blueberry compote where you can see the whole blueberries on it, making these perfectly satisfying and not overly sweet. A pretty purplish cream cheese icing bring these to a whole new level! Oh, and these are perfectly made the day before, another big yes for these soft gooey rolls!!

Sweet rolls is something we can crave most mornings. Pretty sure you can crave them too. I love the idea of just grabbing a piece of something for breakfast without too much thought…

Peanut Butter Coffee Cake with Homemade Blueberry Preserves

The taste of peanut butter shines in this Peanut Butter Coffee Cake. It has peanut butter in the batter and in the streusel for extra peanut butter goodness. The middle is filled with homemade blueberry preserves and the pieces of blueberries plus peanuts in the streusel give this cake a very nice bite! The consistency of the cake itself is like a quick bread but still super soft and fluffy. I can’t believe it’s already gone from my kitchen!

I’m not kidding when I tell you this cake if for peanut butter lovers, not likers. And I don’t want to scare away peanut butter neutral people because…

Blueberry Jam Heart Shaped Doughnuts

You know it’s not Valentine’s in here if there aren’t Heart Shaped Doughnuts in my kitchen!! This year I sticked to my bready dough and filled them with a sweet elderflower blueberry jam. I also used the Tangzhong method for the dough to make it soft and fresh for days, not only the day they were fried. I’m also telling you how you can make these overnight and a few cool tips on how to reheat doughnuts to make them taste even better than when fried!

Maybe it’s because everyone loves these doughnuts so much, from you my readers to my neighbors in the first floor, that I couldn’t help to make these for Valentine’s. There’s something magical about them and ironically, I think it is the amount of work behind them, haha!! After you finally sit down with a doughnut in one hand, a cup…

Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream

This ice cream you guys!! It’s your favorite cheesecake in a cone! This eggless ice cream is loaded with fresh blueberries for a nice burst of freshness every time you bite one. It has lots of graham cracker pieces for that crunchy texture we all love from a good cheesecake. Each spoonful you take is super creamy, tangy, rich and extra flavorful! You and your people won’t been able to stop eating this stuff!

If you are wondering how cream cheese tastes in an ice cream, let me tell you it’s a match made in Heaven that you don’t want to miss out! It’s precisely the tanginess of the cream cheese that balances out the sweetness from the sugar and fruits and the fat from the heavy cream. Cream cheese also adds a lot of viscosity to the ice cream texture, making it creamier than anything else.

This blueberry cheesecake ice cream has no eggs. It’s made with heavy cream that was…

Ricotta Blueberry Almond Cake

This Ricotta Blueberry Almond Cake is such a dream! The crumb is incredibly soft and rich. The bounce of the cake, as you can see in the video, makes you want to jump right over it. The edges are crispy, the top is a bit chewy and the center keeps a nice pudding-like consistency even after days of being baked. If you haven’t try this cake yet, sorry to tell you but you are missing out. Big time! You need to change that ASAP!

Even if I love sweets, I’m not used to eat cake for breakfast. But I’ll be more than happy to have this ricotta blueberry cake with a cup of coffee any given morning. Cakes for breakfast are such an indulgence! They make you feel…

Blueberry Curd Cheesecake Tart

Of all the ways you can enjoy all the sweetness of blueberries, inside a creamy luscious cheesecake has to be one of my favorites! Topped with a smooth blueberry curd to make every bite even more bright and bursting with flavor, this blueberry cheesecake tart is going to be your new favorite dessert! Chilled to perfection so it will cool you down during this summertime!

I always have so much fun making layered desserts. I love that they’re so easy to put together! But probably what I love the most about them is that you can put two or even more things in one container. In life we’re never just one thing, right?. We are built in layers. This is so very true for me. I wouldn't be able…

Jumbo Blueberry Muffins with Cheesecake Streusel

Not only these super soft and tender jumbo blueberry muffins are full of flavor, they are topped with a streusel inspired by one of the most popular dessert here at the blog, Blueberry Cheesecake. I used softened cream cheese and graham crackers to make the streusel that will top these bakery style blueberry muffins. You only need two bowls and a spoon to mix these up, that way you can easily have them any day you want!

I know the mere idea of having a bite of these early in the morning will make your day better instantly. I’m sure your mood…

As you see while drooling over the pictures, with this recipe you’ll get a smooth top cheesecake, without any cracks, burnt spots or a deflated center. Still, it’s thick, dense and super creamy!
