Py Recipes

Velvety ricotta and fresh spinach baked in a rich egg custard with Parmesan and nutmeg. A classic Italian-style quiche that puffs up golden and cuts into clean, elegant slices.

This is a delicious apple pie, the brown sugar crumb topping is really good.

Very easy recipe. I substituted peach-mango Kool Aid for the strawberry, and diced a fresh mango for garnish. Delicious and light!

Ribbon Pumpkin Pie with Crunchy Praline Pastry recipe

Boston cream pie from scratch: tender vanilla butter cake split into four layers, filled with a homemade vanilla pastry custard, and crowned with a glossy milk chocolate glaze.

Apple blueberry pie pairs sliced apples with fresh blueberries in a cornstarch-thickened lemon-bright filling, baked under a flaky double crust until bubbling and golden.

Rhubarb pie sweetened with applesauce instead of additional sugar, thickened with quick-cooking tapioca, and warmed with cinnamon and nutmeg under a lattice crust. The applesauce mellows the tart rhubarb naturally.

Pimblett's shepherd's pie: ground beef (technically cottage pie) with thyme, sage, carrots, and Dijon under a nutmeg-scented mashed potato crown. A classic British pub pie baked bubbling golden.

Impossible cauliflower quiche made with Bisquick, eggs, and milk that bake into a self-forming crust around tender cauliflower, peppers, onion, and Colby cheese. Crustless and crowd-friendly.

Fresh banana rhubarb pie with sliced bananas and rhubarb baked in a double crust with orange juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. A sweet-tart tropical twist on classic rhubarb pie.

When in a hurry, try this scrumptious dish that's easy to prepare and will feed your appetite.

Crispy phyllo strudel filled with spiced apples and sweet pineapple, naturally sweetened with honey. This easy apple-pineapple dessert is lighter than traditional pie.

A buttery, custard-like chess pie loaded with earthy black walnuts and baked until the center is just set. Simple Southern baking with a rich, caramelized filling that needs no fancy technique.

Pumpkin chiffon pie with a fluffy gelatin-set filling lightened by beaten egg whites and whipped cream. Brown sugar, warm spices, and orange zest make it taste like a holiday cloud. Easier on the stomach than custard pumpkin pie.

Honey crunch pecan pie: classic pecan pie with a bourbon-laced custard filling topped with caramelized honey-pecan brittle. Two-stage pie that turns Thanksgiving pecan into a showstopper.

I use McIntosh or a combination of McIntosh & Cortlands as my family and I prefer a softer apple filling that holds together (I NEVER use Granny Smiths)...
