Creole Perfect Sweet Potato Pie

Creole Perfect Sweet Potato Pie by Amos Miller

I have made this recipe for years. There is none better - or so I've been told by some serious and knowing Creole cooks. And while some may say "Well, it sounds just like a pumpkin pie recipe", they are sorely mistaken. This, my friends, is a Creole Sweet Potato Pie. This is the way to eat your vegetables! Vegetables and…

Pumpkin Tassies by Salad Foodie

Perfect for holiday gatherings, these little tarts will disappear fast and are the perfect size when folks want just a little sweet treat. Because not everyone has mini-size muffin pans, I have included photos and baking instructions for using regular muffin pans.

Caramel Pecan Pie

Caramel Pecan Pie by Salad Foodie

This is the only pecan pie recipe you will ever need. Trust me on this. My pecan-pie-hating friend Jerry sampled it one time, and became a believer, as have others! This is a great make-ahead pie as it freezes well. After baking and cooling, wrap in moisture-vapor proof wrap and freeze until the dinner party. This recipe has been an…

Crowd-wowing Flat Apple Pie!

Crowd-wowing Flat Apple Pie! by Salad Foodie

In my all time top FAVS of pie recipes, this pastry is like a Texas-size turnover! Baked in a jelly roll pan, it’s a cinch to transport to meetings or parties, and even easier to serve. Be forewarned that there are some extra steps to this colossal pie, but don't special occasions merit them? A great addition to holiday dessert…

Pecan Pie by Andrea Faz

Although I commonly make this pie during the holiday season, I sometimes like to bake this pie during other times of the year. It is super decadent, and ridiculously easy!

Fabulous 3 Cherry Pie

Fabulous 3 Cherry Pie by Amos Miller

Most folks don't have the luxury of owning a personal cherry orchard, so I modified this recipe using ingredients available at most stores. You'll save the picking and pitting time and end up with a fabulous pie that will thrill even those who say they do not care for cherry pie (I've had it happen). As a native-born…

Summer Squash and Ricotta Cheese Pie

Summer Squash and Ricotta Cheese Pie by Smokinhotchef

I came up with this simple yet sumptuous spin on a common as well as abundant vegetable, with the notion that there is life after zucchini bread! I hope yellow squash can gain more fans and that this recipe will turn the YUCKS into YUMMZ! Enjoy!!

Basic Easy Pie Crust

Basic Easy Pie Crust by Glenn

For my grandmother, Eva Koehler, this was what passed for "easy." For me, easy means opening the box and removing the sleeve, cutting the end and removing the roll of pie dough then un-rolling the dough and placing it in a greased 9" pan. Translations have been made where appropriate. This is one of a very few recipes in her book…

Pecan Tassies

Pecan Tassies by Tami

Miniature pecan pies pretty much sums up the flavor but these are even better. I don’t care for pecan pie as it is too sweet for me. However this portion controlled delicate golden brown crust filled with a gooey pecan filling is just right.

Holiday Cranberry Cheese Pie

Holiday Cranberry Cheese Pie by Denise Sherin

This has become a family favorite for holidays. I found it in a Taste of Home cookbook. I have changed the recipe to be more diabetic friendly. The original recipe calls for sugar in both layers and I use Splenda in place of sugar and for the jello I use sugar free gelatin. But use sugar if you like.

Granny's Chocolate Pie

Granny's Chocolate Pie by Kathleen Scott

I've tasted a lot of pies in my travels. This is one of the best. We called my father's mother Granny. She's been gone more than 50 years now but we think about her at family dinners because Granny's Chocolate Pie is my father's favorite. It takes him back to his east Texas roots and the sweetness of his mother's love. He's 90…

Grandma Koehler's Pumpkin Pie

Grandma Koehler's Pumpkin Pie by Glenn

Grandma Koehler preferred the long neck green stripe pumpkin (actually a gourd) for her pies. The result was that in addition to the unique taste the filling was stringy, much like spaghetti. If you are not that venturesome, any good pumpkin will work just fine with this recipe. It is not an easy recipe but it includes a number of…
