You can use a fruit knife to taste-test some of these fruits (although some have a hard outer shell, so you might need something a bit stronger!)
As the end of summer approaches, many bakers are looking to snag up the last of the ripe summer fruits to make pies, tarts, jams, sorbets, and many more yummy treats.
Peaches are one of this season’s prize fruits- they’re so juicy and sweet, which makes today (it’s Peach Pie Day!) a great day to bake with them.
What you’ll need for your peach pie:
Fresh peaches- about 8 cups, peeled & sliced
½ cup Sugar
1 tsp each of: cinnamon & vanilla extract
¼ tsp nutmeg
3-4 tbsp of cornstarch
Homemade or store-bought pie crust
A sharp fruit knife to cut into your juicy peaches
Mix the above ingredients together, place in your crust, and bake! Enjoy!

If summer had an official fruit, what would it be? Peaches, blueberries, raspberries? No. Hands down, I bet it would be watermelon. Today is Watermelon Day!
This juicy fruit is yummy plain, chopped up into a salad, or blended into a boozy cocktail. And the best way to do a quick taste-test of it is with a sharp fruit knife.
