What's Your Favorite Dessert Recipe for Shows?

[erinhoward]

Preferably without nuts or where nuts can easily be left out. I'm looking for new ideas, it seems like a lot of the dessert recipes don't use a lot of products.

I don't have any of the skillets so I can't do a skillet cake unless I borrow one from my director, I do have the DCB, a stoneware pie dish and the large bar pan of course.

Personally, I don't do Dessert Shows. I discovered that although people oohhed and aahhhed, I didn't get the same sales or bookings with dessert shows that I get with a Main Dish Show.

I use desserts as an incentive sometimes - like, Have 15 confirmed RSVP's and I'll bring dessert. When I do bring dessert, it's either a trifle, a dip, or a skillet cake.

Simply use your favorite pie crust recipe (or a pre-made one) and fill it with sliced apples, cinnamon, and sugar. You can even get creative and add in some raisins or cranberries for an extra burst of flavor. Bake in the oven and enjoy a warm, homemade apple pie without any nuts.Another option is to use your large bar pan to make a delicious fruit crumble. Simply mix together your choice of fruits (such as berries, apples, or peaches) with some sugar and a bit of flour. Then, top it with a mixture of oats, flour, and butter. Bake in the oven and you have a tasty dessert that can easily be made without nuts.If you're looking for something more indulgent, you can try making a chocolate lava cake in your DCB.
