Fruit Recipes

Is there anything more luscious than perfectly ripe fruit in season? The tropical notes of <a href="/recipes/fruit/bananas">bananas</a>, the heady aroma of a juicy <a href="/recipes/fruit/peaches">peach</a>, or the sweet-tart flesh of an <a href="/recipes/fruit/apples/">apple</a> straight from the tree. Fruits are great out of hand, of course, but seasonal fruit can also be a clever way to add sweetness to savory dishes: Diced <a href="/recipes/fruit/pears/">pear</a> rounds out a chopped salad, grapes perk up a pan sauce for sautéed chicken, apricots play nicely in a stuffing for pork. And when it comes to desserts, well, look out, chocolate: Is there anything that trumps a fresh <a href="/recipes/fruit/cherries/">cherry</a> pie, a golden-brown peach cobbler, or towering <a href="/recipes/fruit/strawberry/">strawberry</a> shortcake?
