Good morning. Just the CSPS Girl jumping in here with a little coffee cake recipe, in case you are looking for a quick baked-good that you can make the day before. Can be served at room temperature or warmed a bit, for breakfast or for afternoon tea, this Cranberry Orange Coffee Cake with Pecan Streusel is delicious. Don’t have fresh berries? Frozen will do just great in this recipe (keep the berries frozen when you put into the batter) and you can even swap out the cranberries for blueberries or raspberries. Enjoy!

Breakfast/Brunch
Last of the summer fruit, so I thought I would make a final round of jam, this time Peach with Ginger. Turned out great, even though the peaches were still a little hard but the final result is great. It even set well (I think peaches have a fair bit of natural pectin and I used the low-sugar sort just to make sure).
Headed out on a road trip tomorrow, so I am prepping a few things to take with us that are easy to store, easy to eat. That includes these Black Currant Almond Streusel Bars. As with all of my crumble and struesel bars, these are super-easy to make, really versatile to swap out flavors and pack up really nicely. Also perfect to take along as a picnic or biergarten snack or dessert.

Very Berry Jam Trio: Black Current + Port Wine, Cran-Strawberry and Raspberry Rhubarb Jams
So, it’s summer and I have gone berry picking a number of times. This always means that I make jam, to carry on the intense summer flavors to the rest of the year. This year, I made a few more kinds than usual, so I am putting them all in one “Triple Berry Jam” post. Pick whichever one you like and make some yourself. The Cran-Strawberry is refreshing, the Black Current + Port Wine also works well as an accompaniment to wine and cheese and the Raspberry Rhubarb? Well, that one I managed to get most of the seeds out so no picking at your teeth after breakfast. Enjoy!
