Rustic Fruit Desserts by Cory Schreiber

James Beard Award-winning chef Cory Schreiber teams up with Julie Richardson, owner of Portland's Baker & Spice, to showcase the freshest fruit available amidst a repertoire of nearly 75 satisfying old-timey fruit desserts, including crumbles, crisps, buckles, pies, and more.

An early fall cobbler with blackberries bubbling in their juice beneath a golden cream biscuit. A crunchy oatmeal crisp made with mid-summer's nectarines and raspberries. Or a comforting pear bread pudding to soften a harsh winter's day. Simple, scrumptious, cherished-these heritage desserts featuring local fruit are thankfully experiencing a long-due revival.

Whether you're searching for the perfect ending to a sit-down dinner party or a delicious sweet to wrap up any night of the week, these broadly appealing and easy-to-prepare classics will become family favorites.

JULIE RICHARDSON is the owner and chief baker at Baker & Spice in Portland, Oregon, a small-batch bakery and café. She is a coauthor of Rustic Fruit Desserts and a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York. In Ketchum, Idaho, she opened her first bakery, Good Earth, to satisfy her sweet addiction. She fell in love with the farms and fruits of the Pacific Northwest after coming to Portland and started Baker & Spice from a stall at the farmers' market in 1999. Julie spends most of her days at SweetWares, her retail bakeware shop, creating cakes, croissants, and pies or teaching workshops.

Julie can be found digging in her garden when she is not baking. She and her husband, Matt, live in Portland with their many four-legged pets.
