Hello and happy weekend to you! (Happy long weekend if you are here in the U.S.!)

Are you traveling or have any big food plans this weekend? I’d love to hear what you’re planning to make, bring somewhere, or enjoy on your own! Have a fun and safe few days!

On Brown Eyed Baker This Week

Homemade Strawberry Pie – This fresh strawberry pie sits on my favorite pie crust, is held together with a delicious homemade glaze, and adorned with the best whipped cream. A perfect summer dessert!

Classic Meringue Cookies – Crisp, light-as-air meringue cookies combine five ingredients for a delicate, naturally gluten-free dessert perfect for any occasion. This easy-to-make recipe walks you through how to flavor, color, and add mix-ins to this classic meringue recipe. With a melt-in-your-mouth finish, these delicate cookies make the perfect addition to a holiday cookie tray, afternoon tea, or a warm cup of coffee any time of day.
