This time of year, the fruit is really getting good, especially stone fruits. So we are making the most of late summer’s bounty, with a trio of easy desserts that require little more than a knife, a bowl and a baking dish. First, Stephanie Hart, owner of Brown Sugar Bakery on Chicago’s South Side joins Rick and Steve to share some of her favorite cobblers.  Then, Ben Shartar, Manager of Bang Bang Pie and Biscuits in Chicago, shares one of their favorite crumbles.  And our intrepid intern, Lynnea Domienik talks with Amy Emberling from Zingerman’s Bakehouse in  Ann Arbor, Michigan about the half crumble, half cake treat, the Buckle.
