Justin Burke credits his first queer potluck with changing his life. Gathering around a table piled high with homemade food evoked a sense of unity that bridged individuals beyond societal norms, sparking within him a passion for food that launched his career as a baker. Now a potluck pro, Burke shares his playful, delicious recipes in Potluck Desserts, from Lemon-Thyme Bars and Hummingbird Blondies to Snickerdoodle Peach Cobbler and Cranberry-Orange Fluff Salad. Refined yet approachable, these stylish sweets are organised by baking dish—sheet pans, rectangular pans and foil tins, loaf pans, casserole dishes and bowls, bundts and other round things—and tagged by time to further simplify the process.
