I love chocolate meringue pie. Some friends prefer the whipped cream on top of the chocolate filling, but I like the beaten egg whites piled high on the pie and toasted in the oven to crisp peaks! If I wanted whipped cream on my pie, I would buy a carton of Cool Whip and chow…
Oh how I love Apple Pie! I have a confession to make….I won’t eat restaurant Apple Pie! I think it is because they are previously frozen, they just don’t taste the same. There is one restaurant near St. Louis, MO that makes a Levee High Apple Pie. The name of the out of the way…
Lemon Meringue Pie….A staple! I believe one would place it right after Apple Pie and the Flag! 😉 This recipe was my Grandmothers’ and she used to call it her “old favorite”, because it was so reliable. I hope you like this recipe. The printable recipe is below:
My Mother’s favorite Pie was Coconut Cream Pie and as kids, we didn’t care for the coconut so perhaps that is why she liked this pie….she had it all to herself! Way to go Mom! You were pretty clever and I wish I would have thought of something like that when raising my kids. 🙂…
This Raisin Cream Pie was a favorite of my Grandfather Joe’s. Grandma made it and sugar cookies on a regular basis. It must have been good for him because he lived to be almost 100 years old. He went to be with the Lord shortly before his 100th Birthday. I loved my Grandfather and…
Red Raspberries and Cherries! What a duo! I love the colors of these fruits together….there is something about the red bubbly raspberries and cherries that makes one want to sit down, have a cup of coffee (or tea) and enjoy a sumptuous treat! I also have a cherry-peach pie recipe that I will be posting…
Berry Pies are wonderful and blueberry pie is no exception. I like to buy blueberries in bulk and lay them flat on a cookie sheet and put in my freezer. Then I bag them up in the proportions I want and seal them in freezer bags. Freezing them first keeps them from sticking and mushing…
Butterscotch Pie is hardly made these days. I am not sure why because I like the caramel tasting custard. It kind of reminds me of those butterscotch candies we used to get in the Market. If you make this and have not had Butterscotch Pie before…let me know what you think. Me
Pineapple Pie is a good pie for a warm summer day…it just makes you think you are in the Islands somewhere, perhaps on a Pineapple Plantation and you are indulging in a slice of sweet pineapple. You can make this pie open faced (no crust or meringue) and just top it with a scoop of…
Fresh Peach Pie….or Peach cobbler makes you think of comfort foods. I grew up with comfort foods and I still enjoy them. In moderation of course. But why deny oneself one of the pleasures in life of eating great and good food, that is my motto….. This pie just screams Summertime and fruit orchards! Please…
This Banana Cream Pie recipe has been around our family for years. My Dad liked bananas and this was a favorite. Mother would make 3 pies….Chocolate Meringue Pie for us girls, Coconut Meringue Pie for herself and Banana Cream Pie with Meringue for Dad. We grew up on a farm and have always had laying…
I am not going to call this a soup although it is going to be in the soup category. I used to make home made egg noodles until I found a secret. Reames frozen Noodles. This is so good that no one and I mean no one will be able to tell that you didn’t…
