I'm not big on celebrating "food holidays" (I mean, isn't every day National Pizza Day?) but I make an exception for Pi Day. It looks different every year — one year, I attended a potluckpieparty with contributions that ran the gamut from aclassic apple pietosavory hand pies, and I've had solo celebrations that are simply an excuse to makepie dough. I'm still narrowing down what I'll bake this year; there are several contenders in the running. I'm counting down the days until I can throw a pint of fresh berries into my pie crust, but for now, I'm relying on frozen fruit. ThisLemon-Blueberry Streusel Piebrings the brightness; citrus and berries are a perfect match when I'm longing for true spring weather. Chocolate lovers like me have an important decision to make: do you go with a true diner classic like richChocolate Cream Pieor lighterNo-Bake French Silk Pie, complete with an Oreo cookie crust? Or, somethingvegan-friendly? (There are no wrong answers.) And as a die-hard McDonald's pie enthusiast, I'd be remiss if I didn't mentionFried Apple Pies. Shatteringly crisp with a gooey fruit filling, they're, dare I say, better than the original. Whether you're baking for the occasion, whether it's your fist pie or your fiftieth, our guide onHow to Bake Pieis a bookmark-worthy resource. It includes instructional videos, frequently asked questions, and plenty of expert advice to avoid soggy bottoms. Happy Pi Day, |
