Title: I need to make some pies
Post by: Magic Microbe on March 11, 2019, 11:49:38 AM

For pi day this thursday...we are having an event at work.

I need ideas. I was thinking of an apple with maybe a crumble topping...

Is it too early for strawberry rhubarb?

Eclair pie.

Bake an empty pie shell, cool.
Make a pastry cream, put in pie shell, let set and cool.
Make a simple ganache- equal parts volume semisweet chocolate chips and heavy cream gently microwaved and stirred until smooth, spread on top and cool the whole thing.

That sounds good, Chery!

If it's citrus season, this one also sounds good. https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/01/four-twenty-blackbirds-black-bottom-lemon-pie.html

on the weekend I made an apple-blackberry crisp... it is so good... I almost forgot how delicious apple and blackberry are together, so that's my vote

you could make the crisp and call it a "crustless" apple-blackberry pie with a crumb topping...

although, that pie RA posted looks really good... and more likely to win potluck

Oooh.  I should make a pie for the office.  Anyone have a vegan pie recipe they like?

Unfortunately my lemons are done. We have lots of useless grapefruits though.
