Plum Clafoutis is a dessert that can be elegant or rustic, depending on how it is baked.  I decided to go the rustic route and bake mine in a cast iron skillet.  The recipe is easy---really showcasing the plums in taste and beauty.

Simple Baked Plum Custard The joy of this simple custard is that it is often served at room temperature and dusted with powdered sugar.  Although plums are a crowd pleaser in this French dessert, cherries are traditional.

Homemade Apple Dumplings

Apple Dumplings peeled and cored apples filled with cinnamon sugar mixture then wrapped in a buttery flaky pie crust and ladled with a warm syrup mixture of butter, sugar, and water.  They are perfectly cooked, and you are in heaven!   My apple dumpling recipe comes from a good friend and it never ceases to amaze me how many memories flow in every time I make them.
