Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 tablespoon sugar

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cubed

  • 6–8 tablespoons ice water

  • 5 cups fresh blueberries

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (optional)

Directions

  • Prepare the crust: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until dough comes together. Divide dough in half, flatten into disks, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a large bowl, gently mix blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, lemon zest, and cinnamon (if using).
  • Roll out one dough disk on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer to the dish.
  • Pour blueberry filling into the crust-lined pie dish.
  • Roll out the second dough disk and place it over the filling. Trim excess dough and crimp edges to seal. Cut slits on top to vent steam.
  • Brush the top crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for another 30–35 minutes, or until crust is golden and filling bubbles.
  • Cool completely before serving to allow filling to set.

Notes

  • For a decorative touch, cut dough into shapes (like leaves or stars) for the top crust.
  • Use fresh or frozen blueberries; if using frozen, do not thaw before baking.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

  • 2/3 cup whole milk (or heavy cream)

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  • In a bowl, combine sliced strawberries and sugar. Toss gently and let sit for at least 30 minutes to macerate, allowing juices to develop.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Stir in milk and vanilla extract until just combined; do not overmix.
  • Drop the dough by large spoonfuls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet to form about 8 shortcakes.
  • Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove and cool slightly.
  • In a chilled bowl, beat heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
  • Slice shortcakes in half horizontally.
  • Spoon a generous amount of strawberries and their juices onto the bottom half.
  • Add a dollop of whipped cream, then place the top half of the shortcake.
  • Add more strawberries and whipped cream on top if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a splash of lemon juice or liqueur to the strawberries.
  • Shortcakes can be made ahead and warmed before serving.
  • Substitute heavy cream with coconut cream for a dairy-free version.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy cream

  • 1 cup whole milk

  • ½ cup granulated sugar

  • 2 tsp instant espresso powder (or 1 shot strong espresso)

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 2 ½ tsp unflavored gelatin powder

  • 3 tbsp cold water

  • Optional toppings: whipped cream, cocoa powder, chocolate shavings, or coffee beans

Directions

  • In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
  • In a saucepan, combine heavy cream, milk, sugar, and espresso powder. Heat over medium heat, stirring until sugar and espresso dissolve and the mixture is hot but not boiling.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm cream mixture and stir until completely dissolved.
  • Pour the mixture into ramekins or serving glasses.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
  • Before serving, top with whipped cream, a dusting of cocoa powder, or a few chocolate shavings for an elegant touch.

Notes

  • Use good-quality espresso or instant coffee for the best flavor.
  • You can swap heavy cream for half-and-half if you want a lighter dessert.
  • Panna cotta is best served chilled but can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days.

  • For a vegan version, try agar-agar instead of gelatin (adjust quantities as needed).
