Winter's most festive fruit stars in a family-friendly recipe for Orange Cranberry Crisp that's topped with scoops of vanilla bean ice cream.

Blueberry crisp is a wonderful and easy berry dessert that combines sweet, juicy blueberries with a crunchy oat topping.

Unlike most cobblers, which ask you to chop or slice the fruit, this one is meant to preserve the integrity of the apricots, which bake until totally tender, jammy and saucy, while still maintaining their shape and texture The idea is to spoon out one of the barely sweetened, oaty shortcakes from the pan and then top it with the roasted, honey-sweetened fruit Ice cream is optional but recommended.

Rhubarb is often paired with strawberries, but in this cobbler it courts a new dance partner, the raspberry If rhubarb is young and fresh, you can trim it in seconds If it has fibrous outer strings, peel these off as you would those of celery

This basic galette recipe can be tailored to fit whatever fruit you have on hand The key is to scale the amount of sugar and cornstarch Generally speaking, tart stone fruits (apricots, peaches, nectarines, plums, sour cherries) need a greater amount of both sugar and cornstarch while figs, grapes, berries and Bing cherries tend to need less

This cobbler, which comes from the kitchens of Chez Panisse, prizes the berries above all, using only 1/3 cup of sugar The dough rounds for the top are placed so they don’t cover all the berries, and the juice from the berries bubbles up around the dough.
