Desserts

We’re not skipping dessert. From pie and cake to warm cookies and something cold before it melts, these are a few of our favorites.

It all started in the kitchen.

Before For the Birds Living included patios, parties, golfing adventures and weekend escapes, it was For the Birds Baking—my creative outlet and a very good excuse to keep the cookie jar full.

Then Johnny B’s A1C came back ridiculously high, and some of our favorite recipes needed a rethink. We weren’t giving up dessert—let’s be real—but I did start using monk fruit, cutting way back on sugar and making a few smarter swaps.

Baking is still at the heart of what we do. The recipes may look a little different these days, but they’re still familiar, delicious and worth making.

Whether you’re here for pie, cake, cookies or something cold and creamy, dessert is always a good idea. Pick a category—and let’s get baking.
