Pão de banana (banana bread)
The one that uses up the sad brown bananas on your counter. One bowl, a whisk, and a loaf tin: deeply banana-rich, moist for days, with a craggy split top. The riper the bananas, the better it tastes.

Cake Mix Cookies
Cake mix cookies turn a single box of dry cake mix into soft, chewy cookies with just eggs and oil, no measuring of flour, sugar, or leavening required. They bake up thick and tender with lightly crisp edges, and because the mix is already balanced for sweetness and rise, the dough is nearly foolproof. Swap the flavor of mix or fold in chips and sprinkles to make them your own.

Peach Dump Cake
Peach dump cake is the ultimate low-effort American dessert: canned peaches on the bottom, a dry box of yellow cake mix "dumped" on top, and sliced butter to melt it all together. As it bakes, the fruit bubbles up through the mix to create a craggy, golden, cobbler-like crust with a soft, buttery cake layer underneath. The no-stir method is the whole trick, keeping the top crisp while the peach juice steams the cake from below.

Roasted Baby Potatoes
Halved baby potatoes roasted cut side down on a preheated sheet pan come out shatter-crisp and deeply golden on the flat side, with creamy, almost buttery centers. Starting them on hot metal sears the cut face immediately, and tossing in fresh garlic and rosemary near the end keeps the aromatics fragrant instead of burnt. It is a five-minute-effort side that works with practically any main.

Baked Sweet Potatoes
Whole sweet potatoes roasted hot and uncovered until the skins crisp and the centers collapse into a custardy, caramel-sweet mash. A 220°C (425°F) oven gives the potatoes enough time for their starches to convert to sugar, so the flesh tastes candied without a drop of added sweetener. All they need is a fork, a little oil and salt, and about an hour of hands-off oven time.
