Pie is most certainly my favorite thing to make. Often on afternoon making pie dough, getting my fingers into the cold butter and flour, it’s like a beautiful mental trip or therapy session. It soothes the soul. Can I say that’s really the secret to any yummy flaky pie dough. And when it comes to…
Strawberry Rhubarb Rose Cobbler
Oh, is there anything that gets me more Springtime smitten, than a Strawberry Rhubarb Rose Cobbler … especially this one that celebrates the floral scents of the lovely Spring season! The flavors are a delight! And one only best tasted firsthand than explained, but I will do my best to convince you otherwise. Otherwise enjoy…
Summer Fruit & Herb Pairings :: Pie Edition
Summer fruits and herbs go together like peaches and blueberries, strawberries and chocolate, and of course pie and ice cream — the best pairing ever! No the lovely pairing of fruits and herbs aren’t ones that automatically come to mind when you think of summer flavors, or any flavor pairing for that matter, but they…
Caramel Pumpkin Pie
Good ole pumpkin pie. Some are all about it, some will eat it if served but that’s about it, and then the rest simply don’t care for it. It’s definitely an acquired taste, not an instant crowd pleaser like apple pie. But for some time, before the holidays get real busy, I had been craving…
Classic Apple Pie
Is there anything more American than Apple Pie?? This simple dessert is as classic as it gets, and pretty much the epitome of Autumn. No surprise, Apple Pie is also the most popular pie in America! But even the classics like Apple Pie aren’t all made the same way. Some stick to traditional cinnamon, while others…
Peach & Raspberry Pandowdy
Oh sweet sweet summertime, you’re sadly coming to your end once again.

And I’m going to apologize to all of you right now because I’ve been working on putting together several summer recipes to share on the blog the next few weeks, but the only thing is that a good chunk…
Peach Plum Pie
Come summertime, peach pie is just as classic as flip flops and sun kissed skin. There is definitely nothing unique or different about this pie, unless you count adding in whiskey. Well because why not, it makes any baked good, especially pie, just a bit more delicious. No out of the ordinary technique, just a rolled out pie crust top…
Mini Summer Fruit Galettes
How was your 4th of July weekend, was it fun, full of great food and sunshine, I hope so! I hope it was filled with lots of pie too. Well, I’ve got even more pie for you today. I know you’re probably looking for some detoxing juice or a light salad after this holiday weekend,…
Blueberry & Lemon Mint Pie
I’ve been remaking some of my recipes, tweaking ingredients, and fixing some things on the dessert catering end of The Dreamery. I had enough blueberries from the farmers’ market, with the exception of a few strawberries I added, some leftover sugar cookie dough, and inspired by The Four & Twenty Blackbirds pie book, plenty of lemon mint in the…
