When I posted the recipe for cherry cheesecake mousse a few weeks ago, I mentioned on Facebook that I hoped you had all stocked up on cherries, because there would be a few more cherry recipes headed your way. ...

Strawberry Peach Upside-Down Cornbread Cake
Let’s just get this out of the way up front: this cornbread is not what you’d serve alongside ribs, chili, or fried chicken. It could very well be what you’d serve afterward, though, because this strawberry peach upside-down cornbread cake—whew, what a mouthful, huh?—belongs solidly in the dessert category. Or possibly brunch. In my mind, there’s only a fine line between dessert and brunch: if it ...
Lemon Blueberry Cornmeal Pancakes
Can you believe it’s been a whole SIX weeks since I’ve shared a blueberry pancake recipe with you?! I know, it’s a little ridiculous. And by “it,” I mean me.

Hopefully spring has started to materialize for the rest of you as well, but even if it hasn’t, this lemon chess pie with candied blood oranges can help make up for ...
Cornmeal Chocolate Chip Pancakes with Brandied Cherries
Chocolate and cherries are a fairly traditional combination. Alcohol and breakfast…not as traditional (except for mimosas, perhaps). But hey, since I’ve already gone there once with my amaretto poppy seed pancakes, why not another boozy pancake recipe? The flavor of the brandy comes through much more prominently than the amaretto, so I definitely wouldn’t serve this to any kiddies—these pancakes ...
