Grandma’s Plum Crumb Bars + A One-Skillet Summer Dinner | Our Best Home Cooking Bites

What do you make when you want a homemade dessert that feels special, but takes almost no effort to bake?

In this bite-sized episode, we share the best things we ate this week to inspire each other — and you!

By the end of this episode, you’ll want to make a buttery plum jam crumb bar inspired by Sonya’s grandmother. It’s beginner-friendly, and so delicious you’ll want to eat the whole tray as soon as it comes out of the oven.

You’ll also discover a recipe for a quick one-skillet dinner made with sweet summer corn and chew rice cakes, and flavored with nutty miso + brown butter.

Tune in for a quick dose of home cooking inspiration!
