Chocolate Chip Cupcakes
Simple but satisfying, these little snack cakes check all the boxes: They have a buttery, vanilla-scented crumb and the perfect amount of chocolate. They look like dessert, but could also make a sweet, transportable breakfast. They are perfect as they are, but if you’d like to dress these cupcakes up for a party, you can dust them with powdered sugar or frost them with some chocolate buttercream.
Prăjitură Turnată Cu Mere (Jammy Apple Bars)
Jammy, cinnamon-spiced apples, sandwiched between tender vanilla cake layers then dusted with sugar, create a unique Romanian apple dessert whose name translates to “poured apple pastry,” a reference to the batter used for the cake layers. Coarsely grated apples are simmered in their own juices, maintaining a buttery, tender consistency that’s not as mushy as puréed apples yet not quite as chewy as sliced apples. Half the cake batter is poured into the bottom of the pan and partially baked. The apples get spread over the baked layer and topped with the remaining batter. Once baked and cooled, the cake is sliced into bars and topped with powdered sugar for an irresistibly tender and light dessert.

Flan de Coco (Coconut Flan)
Flan, a type of caramel custard and a traditional homemade sweet, is beloved all over Latin America and can be eaten any time of day. And best of all, it’s quite simple to make: The only tricky part is preparing the caramel that coats the bottom of the pan. These days, most recipes call for sweetened condensed cow’s milk, but mine skips the dairy altogether, using two kinds of coconut milk instead.

Vegan Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
These vegan, gluten-free stunners, which you can mix in one bowl without an electric mixer, have a candy-like crunch at the edges from caramelized brown sugar; a chewy, dense center from a mix of almond and oat flours; and a bittersweet speckling of mini chocolate chips strewn throughout. Adapted from Lee Farrington, LB Kitchen in Portland, Maine, they bake up sturdy enough for picnics, lunchboxes and mailing to far-flung, cookie-loving family and friends, but note that the sticky batter does need to be frozen before baking so plan ahead.
Vegan Gluten-Free Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Inspired by the vegan, gluten-free chocolate chip cookies that Lee Farrington makes at LB. Kitchen in Portland, Maine, these one-bowl delights are chewy at their centers, crisp at the edges and full of raisins and sweet spice. The batter is very sticky and needs to be frozen before baking so they don’t spread too much, but a couple of hours will do it. Feel free to substitute hazelnut flour for the almond flour for a deep, toasty flavor.

Lemon Berry Quick Cake
Occasionally, you might find yourself with a surplus of summer berries. This easy cake is perfect for those occasions. The olive oil and lemon are inspired by traditional Italian cakes that offer richness while also feeling light and tender. The berries and the glaze — should you choose to use it — are reminiscent of traditional American pound cakes. This versatile cake-of-all-trades is baked in a cast-iron skillet yet remains soft and delicate in the crumb. It is so versatile that it can be served for breakfast, afternoon tea or as a simple, rustic dessert for a beautiful summer feast.
Blueberry-Lemon Almond Cookies
These citrusy, almond-y cookies are brimming with blueberries and yield a couple dozen cookies with minimal prep, which means you can share them and still stash enough for yourself. The tender, cakelike texture of the cookies evokes pound cake or a muffin top. A tangy glaze balances the sweetness of both the blueberries and the cookie itself. Try finding frozen wild blueberries if possible as frozen berries are often sweeter than fresh. Also, their smaller size makes them easier to incorporate into the dough and leads to more even baking, plus you get more blueberries per cookie. Enjoy these cookies with a morning cup of coffee, alongside your afternoon tea or ahead of your evening nightcap.

Gelo di Melone (Sicilian Watermelon Pudding)
Adapted from a recipe by Fabrizia Lanza, this is a traditional Sicilian recipe for a refreshing chilled watermelon dessert, probably originally derived from an Arabic sweet. As there are similar Indian and Persian watermelon confections, it seems a natural finish to this meal. In Sicily, it is typically perfumed with jasmine blossoms. A drop or two of fragrant rose water would be a welcome addition.
