Happy Friday, foodie friends!!!! We made it another week. This week flew by with a holiday on Monday and non-stop work and school all week. I'm excited to announce that my term is over. I just have one more paper to write and then another final exam. This term has kicked my booty, and I feel like today's recipe is the perfect toast to the end of a treacherous term. :) I kid, I kid...or do I?
Is there a better pairing for summer than blackberry and lemon? I was thinking of all the possibilities. You could do blackberry lemonade, blackberry and lemon popsicles or lemon blackberry cake. I've got a bit of a sweet tooth and nothing is better than cobbler or crisps this time of year (Okay, I lied, I also love strawberry rhubarb pie too).
I love this recipe because it's got both a sweet and tart flavor burst. It's just so yummy! Plus, as you're baking it, the delicious smell permeates the air and makes your mouth water.
What are some of your favorite flavors for summer? Let us know in the comments!
