All Our Favorite Baking Recipes for Spring
These recipes are filled with strawberries, rhubarb, and flowers
If you're looking to spruce up your pastry game, or just infuse a little more spring into your baking routine, look no further. The fresh produce of spring brings great ingredients for all kinds of baking adventures. Strawberries are one of our favorite springtime fruits, and they're great to bake too. Just throw them in a strawberry shortcake or any cheesecake to make a spring-ready, perfectly fruity dessert. Rhubarb is a great vegetable for making any baked good feel more like spring. It pairs great with strawberries in a strawberry rhubarb hand pie , or it can stand alone in some tart rhubarb muffins with almond streusel. If you're really desperate for some spring baking, go floral with a Persian herb-stuffed frittata with walnuts and rose petals. Sweet or savory, just make sure it has all the spring it can handle. Here are our best spring baking recipes.
