Pie Pie Pie: Easy Homemade Favorites, Cookbook of the Day

by Nicole Weston, Posted Nov 21st 2006 @ 8:01AM

Pie is the traditional way to end a Thanksgiving dinner. It doesn't really matter what kind of pie - although pecan, apple and pumpkin are the standards - but the important thing is that you pick a kind you like. The best tasting pies are the homemade ones because, as cliche as it sounds, you put love into your own pie as you make it, which makes you appreciate it more. That being said, pies are not always easy to make, but Pie Pie Pie: Easy Homemade Favorites aims to make them easier. The book features 60 different variations on pies, all sweet and suitable for dessert at any occasion. As you might guess from the title, the book is not necessarily geared towards those who are already master bakers. This doesn't mean that you will be disappointed in the recipes if you are a pastry master, but that beginners will get their hands held through the pie-making process. There are a number of different crusts (including a wheat-free recipe) and toppings, as well as the pies themselves. Recipes include classics like Apple and Key Lime, as well as Mocha Mousse Chiffon Pie, Orange Blueberry Pie and Caramel Custard Pie.
