Just in time for Eid-ul-Adha and summer picnic season heres a roundup of some of my favourite desserts to make to either enjoy on a beautiful summer evening or to take a picnic or backyard get-together.
Hope you find some inspiration for your next summer dessert treat!
Mango Sticky Rice
What is summer without mangoes? We are deep into Pakistani mango season and mango and rice is a staple in our house. Make it mango sticky rice and it is game over for all other desserts!
Watermelon Salad
Despite the name, this can easily be a really refreshing dessert after a BBQ picnic and doesn’t take much to throw together. The combo of basil and watermelon is magical! Give it a go!
Blueberry Scones
I love making a batch of scones on the weekend. Fresh blueberries and some lemon zest give this a fresh summery take. That and a cup of chai in the morning! Yum!
Pound Cake with Fresh Berries
I can’t get enough of the fresh berries in the summer. This cream cheese pound cake is made with just 9 ingredients and goes great with whipped cream and fresh berries! The tanginess from the cream cheese adds a really nice touch to the creaminess of the pound cake.
Lavender Lemon Tea Cake
If you haven’t already guessed I love having something sweet with my chai. This floral smelling lavender lemon tea cake is lightly sweet with a subtly tangy glaze that makes it so fresh.
Banoffee Pie
Bananas, whipped cream and dulche de leche. And no oven needed!
No-bake-Mango Cheesecake
Ending it with one more mango recipe. This no-bake mango cheesecake is perfect when you want dessert without turning on the oven!
