What's your favorite pie?

Pumpkin.

omygoodness! I thought nobody outside of certain sections of Pennsylvania knew about shooo-fly pie! Or are you not REALLY near Oslo, Norway?

Regarding apple pie: The best apple pie I ever had was made from Macoun apples, which you can usually only get if you buy them from a farm stand during about 2 critical weeks in the fall. They are crisp, tangy, sharp, flavorful, and make a beautiful pie!

  1. Pecan
  2. Key Lime
  3. 3.14

My MIL makes a buttermilk pie that is so rich, it makes your teeth curl! The sugar in it forms a crackly carmel top when it’s done. It is soooooo good you wanna keep eating and eating, but it’s so rich, you just can’t.

Needless to say, I don’t make it very often - else I’d be spherical! :eek:

What, no Derby Pie? Pecans or walnuts (I prefer walnuts), chocolate chips, and a good glug of bourbon…sin made flesh. (I also like French Silk.)

Thenm there’s my Aunt Shelly’s deep-dish peach or blueberry pies…made with fruit from the roadside farmstand.

I love 'em all. Except after eating homemade, Baker’s Sqare pales in comparison. There are some pies I’ve never been able to make myself try, just because there are always other ones I can’t manage to tear myself away from: coconut cream, banana cream, and custard pretty much fall into this category. If they were the only pie present, I’d probably try them, but they usually aren’t, so I haven’t.

Coconut Cream
Key-Lime
Creamy Chocolate Pie

Mmmmmm…I’m getting hungry now!

My mom would make pies out of cream cheese and those international coffees, like Italian cappucino. Those were the best.

My favorite pie is cheesecake.

Yes, cheesecake is a pie. Specifically, it is a custard pie.

As an antidote to all these sweet pies:

  1. Game - hare, venison or pheasant.
  2. Melton Mobray pork pie. I was born near here, so the argument that it’s just pink sausage meat in jelly never occurred to me until it was too late.
  3. Lamb and rosemary
  4. Egg and bacon
  5. Four 'n Twenty

A large slice of cherry, next to a large slice of custard.

It is?! Kewl! :cool:

My favorite is Double Chocolate Upside Down Jack Daniels cheesecake. As dense as a neutron star and richer than Bill Gates.

(Pity that Cheesecake Factory stopped carrying it.)

Bourbon Pecan Pie Tarts served hot from the oven with vanilla ice cream melting allllllll over.

mmmmmmmmmmm

Bakers Square French Silk chocolate pie.
Heaven!

Lemon Meringue pie that my mother makes.

Light thin crust, tart lemon that isn’t too sweet, light meringue. Yum. She actually won a contest for it once - nothing huge just a local community thing.

My Mom’s pecan pie is greatly to be praised but a buddy of mine’s Mom back in da hood made an apple pie to die for. Only lady that could compete with Mom. Damn that was fine pie!

5)Coconut Cream

Well, like the signature says: “An American flodnak in Oslo”. I grew up in Lancaster.

Cherry pie, on the tart side, with a flaky crust made with lard. French vanilla ice cream on the side. Like in a side dish, not touching the pie.

I’m also fond of really tart key lime pie and lemon meringue, so long as the crust is good. Crust is very important for good pie.

Oh, yes! Most of the piecrust that is not homemade might as well be cardboard.

jjimm, what on Earth is * spanikopita*? Are you hiding yummies from me again?

Cheese and onion pie sounds absolutely scrummy curly chick!

For me sweet:pumpkin, apple, pecan, coconut cream and banana cream. Savoury: pork pies :: drool :: and steak and ale
