I was contemplating a blackberry peach pie but damnit blackberries are expensive. I settled on organic white peaches and raspberries. I believe I overdosed the fruit mixture on sugar. The crust looks moderately successful. In 15 min I’ll roll the dough, fit it in the pan, pour in the mixture, then bake that bitch. And oh yes, I’m going to try my luck at that lattice thing.

Very simple, I want to be able to make a decent pie and pie crust from scratch.

I baked my first pie (mixed berry) in March, and have since made about 5 or 6 more. As long as I have a good three hours to make it, I usually start from scratch, which can be stressful at times, but is always worth it!

I baked a cherry pie with a lattice crust. It’s so cute! I don’t want anyone to eat it!

under the sun except a pie! Recently I have started baking bread, and I have cooked cookies and cakes. I just need to bake a pie! Shepherds pie doesnt count cause its not pastry. I think its the pastry thats giving me the mental block. We will see, at least I have a pie tin now. I might do a cop out and bake an apple (or sweet) pie

Cunningly I waited for the season to end, so there were no fresh blueberries in the store! I had to buy a tub of frozen ones, but that worked out.
I used:
“Baking Illustrated: A Best Recipe Classic”
for the recipe. I actually cut out some of the time consuming parts (leave the dough in the fridge, and leave the pie to cool down for 45 minutes) because I started making it about 4pm and we were too hungry to wait any longer once it came out of the over.
It turned out really nice, especially the pastry.
Soon I will make a peach pie, as my son didn’t like the blueberries.

goodwolve You are a Romantic Organized Believer today.
I love pie… I used to ask for it rather then birthday cake. My favorite to make is a mixed berry apple pie… especially if the berries are just picked. MMMMM….. next up is to try strawberry rhubarb… I just know I’d love it.
