My husband ate the last slice of pumpkin pie last night, but with Christmas only three weeks away (!) I know I’ll be enjoying pie again soon. While we usually vary our main course (turkey at Thanksgiving, ham at Christmas), we almost always have the same pies.
This year I tried a new pumpkin pie recipe and a new all-butter crust recipe for our apple pie. Since both turned out really well, I think I will be making them again.
When I was looking for a gingersnap pie crust for my pumpkin pie, I came across this recipe. I could have used the gingersnap crust with my usual pumpkin pie filling, but I could not resist the promise of a custard made with half & half. It was fantastic!
Every time we make this apple pie recipe, we try a different crust, but I think I will stick with this one. I am still intimidated by my food processor, but Dorothy’s detailed directions and step-by-step photos gave me the confidence to give it a try. I was amazed at how quickly and easily the dough came together!
My sister-in-law made this pecan pie, using the classic Karo syrup recipe. I find the filling too sweet for my tastes, but I can’t resist the top layer of crunchy pecans!
Did you try any new recipes for Thanksgiving?
What is your favorite type of pie?
Im not a pie person BUT you had everyone else inthe domicile with GINGERSNAP CRUST!
Ooh, your pies look fantastic! We usually have pumpkin pies at Thanksgiving with 1-2 other desserts, but not at Christmas. It’s fun to experiment with new recipes, isn’t it?
I’m not a pie person either. And definitely not pecan 🙁 But, my husband loves apple and that apple pie looks beautiful. Although I could happily devour some gingerbread crust and leave the rest. Very impressive creations.
OMG I love pie. It’s my favorite dessert (well, it’s close with ice cream). I now ask for birthday pie instead of cake! These look fantastic!
I’m not a huge pie eater but I do love my Mom’s lemon meringue pie 🙂
I’m so glad you liked the crust!!
“I’m not a pie eater”. Ohhh the blasphemous agony of ‘dem words.
I am The Pie Defender. I defend the tasty honor of all pies. Come at me, bro! We shall do battle.
I knew I could count on you to rally the pie troops!
Your apple pie looks delicious, I think I would stick to that crust too…looks great!
Thanks,
Sami
