Fruity Breakfast Crisp

Though we think of crisp as a dessert, it also makes a healthy breakfast. Make it the night before for a quick spoon-it-up starter (warm it in the microwave, if you wish) or include it in a brunch buffet menu on a slowed-down Sunday.

Cranberry Seed Muffins

Peach Blackberry Cobbler

A homey fruit cobbler – made with blackberries from our garden and peaches from the market – is our favourite late summer dessert.

Carrot Raisin Muffins

Cranberry Flax Muffins

Carrot Date Breakfast Bars

Breakfast replenishes the body's energy supply after the nightlong fast and plays an important role in children's performance at school. Thus these tasty bars not only work for the morning rush but also as a treat with lunch.

Green Onion Quick Bread

A simple, savoury quick bread is an essential recipe for your collection.

Peach Cobbler

Whole Wheat Canola Oil Pastry

This crisp, nutty-tasting pastry is particularly nice with the Rhubarb Crumble Pie. Since it doesn't use butter, you don't need to chill it before rolling out. If the crust begins to brown too much while baking, shield it with strips of foil.

Carrot Apricot Bran Muffin Bars

Adding grated carrot to muffin bars is another way to consume a small amount of vegetable — every little bit counts, right? Vary the dried fruits by choosing your family's favourite.
