I'm a berry pie girl. I love saskatoon pie, and rhubarb and the occasional good apple pie too. Mmmmmmmmmm.

It's a tie between Apple with homemade vanilla bean ice cream
and warm right out of the oven pecan!

 

[texasgirl]

Pumpkin, coconut and chocolate

alix, what is a saskatoon pie? (see, i even refrained from asking what part of the goose or moose does a saskatoon come from?)

 

[urmaniac13]

Fruit, pumpkin, custard (esp. coconut custard!), cheese... I also picked "others" as I also adore strudels and cobblers (fruit crumbles)...

I also like savoury pies like quiche and "torta rustica" with ricotta, spinach, cheese etc., and I also like pies with puff pastry shells as well as short bread crusts...

It wouldn't be this one - Or could it?



BT, you're all dressed up for dinner. Love your new avatar.

I'm with Alix--any kind of fruit or berry pie makes me happy!

 

[Alix]

Buckytom, you are such a goof. Saskatoons are a prairie type berry that taste a bit like blueberries only are more al dente and less sweet. I have a pic of one of MY pies, but can't find it at the moment. I am not even going to comment on that moose thing...

 

[mish]

Thanks, Alix. I'm not familiar with the pie. I would Love to try it.

Another favorite, is B'stilla (sp). I ate it at a Morrocan restaurant, and would like to give it a try. It's a chicken pie, with yummy spices (cinnamon, raisins, etc.) and dusted with powdered sugar(?).

There are so many varieties, I didn't have enough room in the poll...but basically, a dessert-type pie, is what I had in mind - rather than a puff pastry or phyllo dough - with the holidays rolling around. But, I welcome any new recipes.

now how can i choose between cherry, peanut butter, and cheese ?????

 

[buckytom]

ok, got it. bland berries that are as hard as rocks, yummmmmmm.

(kidding. i'm sure they're good )

WhyyoulittleIoughta... buckytom they are NOT bland! You are such a brat!

Mish, they are not exactly readily available, you could likely find them online or in a specialty store, but they are expensive to buy HERE so I can only imagine what they would cost to be shipped. If you ever get up here, look for them. They are worth trying.

 

[CharlieD]

I voted for the first one, but really i only like apple. Not big on the rest of the fruits.

 

[mish]

Alix, sounds yummy.

Look what I found (check out the muffins).

Middie, I've never tried peanut butter pie, but I KNOW I would love it. Anyone have a recipe?

 

[crewsk]

I guess fruit pies are my favorite but peanut butter/chocolate comes in at a real close 2nd!


Mish, here's a real easy one that I have made several times. http://www.discusscooking.com/forums/f40/chocolate-peanut-butter-pie-9615.html?highlight=Peanut+Butter+Chocolate

 

[Dina]

All the fruit pies you can think of are my favorite! You forgot to include mango pie. It's Yum-O!

 

[mish]

Thanks, Crewsk.
