Old-Fashioned Desserts

Banana pudding, peach cobbler, apple pie, bread pudding — the puddings and pies that ended every Sunday dinner.

Meatloaf, pot roast, Salisbury steak, beef stew, chicken and dumplings — the hearty plates that fed a whole table.

Pound cake, hummingbird, gingerbread, wacky cake, pineapple upside-down — every one built without a box in sight.

Cooking that stretched a little into a lot — wacky cake, bean soups, cabbage soup, cornbread. Thrift, turned into flavour.

Chess pie, buttermilk pie, banana pudding, hummingbird cake — the recipes the American South never stopped making.

Sugar cookies, gingerbread, fudge, pound cake — everything you need for the holiday table, tested well before December.
