July 4th Recipes

Red, White, and Delicious: 4th of July Recipes

Hot Dog Bun PanCelebrate summer’s peak with these festive 4th of July recipes. This collection features seasonal favorites that are perfect for beach gatherings and backyard cookouts, from beautifully golden burger buns to vibrant red, white, and blue desserts. Make this the year you bake homemade hot dog buns (it's easy to create that signature split-top shape with the New England Hot Dog Bun Pan). For sweets, go bold with Red, White, and Blue Blondies or American Flag Pie — both are on-theme and made with fresh, seasonal fruit.

For an easy-but-impressive showstopper, turn our Super-Simple Strawberry Cake into a patriotic centerpiece (pictured above) by decorating it like a flag with fresh berries, or opt for an equally stunning Fourth of July Flag Cobbler. If you want to serve a dessert with a touch of nostalgia, make Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream Sandwiches or Mr. Washington’s Cherry Pie to add classic Americana charm to your table.
