What does summer taste like? I’d argue it tastes something like this pie: bright and vibrant and bursting with fresh peach flavor, perfumed with vanilla bean, and encased in a buttery, flaky pastry crust. If that’s not summer in a pie crust, I don’t know what is. Fresh vanilla bean is the secret to making […] The post Fresh Peach Pie with Vanilla Bean first appeared on Love and Olive Oil.| Love and Olive Oil
It's no mystery that I love me a good food pun... if you follow me on Instagram or if you read this blog with any regularity that fact is glaringly obvious. At this point I have a notebook filled with pages and pages of food puns. It's one of those things I've always thought I| Love and Olive Oil

Be sure to pick up a copy of today’s Tennessean, where this recipe for Blueberry Truffle Tartlets (excerpted below) is featured! And stay tuned, as I’ll have new writings and recipes appearing in the Taste section every month. This summer has bestowed upon us a beautiful bounty of blueberries. The delicate berries were in peril| Love and Olive Oil
As you might have realized, no jam that comes out of my kitchen is finished until it has a pretty label. The label not only labels (duh), preventing you from mixing up which was which and what was what, but it also instantly takes your jams up a notch on the gift-awesomeness scale. Sure, what's| Love and Olive Oil
Blueberries are a miracle of color. When first picked, their skins are mottled blue with a hazy white film (also called the bloom, a natural sunscreen that protects the berry and keeps them from spoiling). All the pigment (and beneficial nutrients) resides in the skin, much of the tang and tannin too. The flesh inside| Love and Olive Oil
The other morning Taylor and I awoke feeling rather blue. Not because the cats decided to use our bodies as early-morning spring boards; rather, we had blueberries on the brain. That's the best kind of blue. So, in spite of the heat, we put on our grubby clothes, loaded up on bug spray, and headed| Love and Olive Oil
Be a peach, and make this jam for me, will you? Because it can only be described as delightful. I'm not usually one for lavender or other floral flavors; they often come across as "perfumy" and I can't stand that. But this is subtle. Just enough lavender to give the jam an air of elegance.| Love and Olive Oil
I'd like you to meet your new favorite cake: it's (naturally) bright green, loaded with nutty pistachio flavor, and topped with a silky smooth layer of chocolate ganache for good measure.

Almond flour is a staple in my kitchen, you'll need it if you plan to make recipes like my popular soft amaretti cookies and this spectacular flourless almond cake. While almond flour is a pretty easy to find ingredient these days, it's actually quite easy to make your own from scratch if you find yourself| Love and Olive Oil
It's no secret I've been doing a lot of canning this year, and much of what I've done I have shared with you. Part of what I love about canning (and this is the design geek in me on full display) is creating the unique "packaging" for each batch and flavor. To me, a batch| Love and Olive Oil
I'll be darned if I let peach season slip away without squirreling away at least a few jars of something peachy. Time was running out, so when a local farm announced a last-chance sale on pick-your-own peaches, I knew I had to act. Luckily, my husband is a good sport, and agreed to take me| Love and Olive Oil
I told you we picked a lot of blueberries. In fact, the tart and ice cream were attempts to use what was left AFTER all the jam. All in all I made about 14 jars worth of blueberry jam, in three different flavor combinations. I've realized I like to make jam much more than I| Love and Olive Oil
This naturally gluten-free almond cake is made with little more than almond flour, eggs, sugar and butter, with a splash of Grand Marnier to finish it off (though you can swap in amaretto liqueur or simply vanilla extract if you wish). The texture of this cake is nothing short of magical, somehow light and substantial| Love and Olive Oil
I have a no banana left behind rule. Now, know that I'm not the one actually buying/eating the bananas (Taylor is), but any banana that gets too soft and speckled for his liking (which, seeing as he likes his bananas on the green side, is pretty much after the appearance of that first spot) is| Love and Olive Oil
I've been (not-so-patiently) waiting two years to make strawberry jam. The year I learned how to can I didn't start until June or July, well after the last luscious red berries had been plucked. And last year, well, I've already lamented about missing strawberry season last year. This year, we were lucky enough to catch| Love and Olive Oil

Let's be honest with ourselves: this is cake, through and through. Cake disguised as breakfast.
