This pie comes together in 20 minutes and takes 30-40 minutes to bake, easy and quick is what this recipe is all about. When I have the time, I love to make an apple pie from scratch, but there are days I need a quick dessert for guest coming and making an apple pie is not an option.

Green Apple Pull Apart Bread {Using Rhodes Frozen Bread}
Green Apple Pull Apart Bread c hipped pieces of apple between layers of slightly sweet cinnamon dough. Fun to make and worth all the effort. By now, I think almost everyone knows about Pull Apart Bread on Pinterest. I don't think I have opened up my Pinterest and run through my follower's pins without someone pinning a recipe for pull apart bread in a loaf pan.

Simple Plum Clafoutis
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 can be gorgeous! 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. Arranging the plums on top of the custard is elegant perfection in itself, but mine seemed to move when I poured the custard over them. Oh well, I did say I went the rustic route, didn't I?

Brown Sugar Pumpkin Pie Bars
Brown Sugar Pumpkin Pie Bars , an elegant pumpkin pie in a simple dessert bar. A nice way to serve dessert at family gatherings, bridal showers, and even tailgate entertaining. I am a little anxious for fall to get here, so I am going to get it started with a pumpkin recipe. Pumpkin is synonymous with fall so much so that we embrace the humble gourd in the squash family as a superfood, low in calories and high in fiber. That works for me because I love pumpkin anything!

A copycat of the beloved Little Debbie Cookies in lunchboxes across the country. A box of these classic cookies never stayed long around our house much less for lunches.

Chunky Chocolate Chip Double Doozies
Chunky Chocolate Chip Double Doozies , fluffy frosting sandwiched between two giant soft and chewy, chunky chocolate chip cookies, a copycat of the beloved cookie found at the cookie store in your local mall.

Old Fashioned Chocolate Meringue Pie {Granny's Recipe}
Old Fashioned Chocolate Meringue Pie, creamy, rich chocolate filling adorned with fluffy meringue in a flakey pie crust, just like grandma makes.

Eggnog Pumpkin Pie
Eggnog Pumpkin Pie , a perfect combination of two flavors that join us for the holidays! This recipe reminds me of having a slice of Pumpkin Pie with a cup of eggnog. This pie is a little twist on a traditional recipe. Our family is not too much a fan of pumpkin pie. I think it is because pumpkin pie to us is so bland--- so when I first saw this recipe over at Joy's blog, I knew I had to make it.
