Something about spring puts me in the perfect mood for fruit desserts. Even if most of our fruit isn't quiiiiite in season yet, it's definitely time for some sweet and tart flavor only fresh fruit can delivery. So I've pulled together some positively ambrosial fruit dessert recipes — some classic, others surprising but tempting. Here's eight fruit desserts I'd love to try this spring.
Blackberry Rosewater Ice Cream
Cafe Johnsonia has heavenly blackberry rosewater ice cream recipe I'm dying to try out. If you peruse the blog you'll see Lindsey does a lot of ice cream recipes, so she definitely knows what she's doing here.
Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
Nothing says spring like strawberries and rhubarb! Here's a classic strawberry rhubarb pie recipe.
Strawberry Shortcake
I mean… does anyone need an excuse to eat strawberries with a ton of cream? Here's a strawberry shortcake recipe.
Caramelized Banana Pudding
Sure, you could just make banana pudding from a mix. But why, when this caramelized banana pudding recipe sounds so scrumptious?
Key Lime Pie
Key lime pie sounds perfectly springy to me. And if you don't have REAL key limes? Just make this with regular limes — still yummy.
Nectarine Pecan Buckle Cake
We're verging on stone fruit season — depending on where you live, maybe you're already there. How about some nectarine pecan buckle cake by My Life Runs of Food?
Raspberry Red Velvet Cupcakes
Love raspberries with chocolate? Try these raspberry red velvet cupcakes.
Cherry Crisp
I love all kinds of crisps and cobblers, but I don't think I've ever tried cherry crisp. This recipe by Brown Eyed Baker looks delicious.
