7 Pie Recipes for Pie Day!

March 14, 2014

I’m awful at math.

It’s not so much that I can’t solve simple math problems, but more that I don’t trust myself. I’m that person who whips out my phone when the bill arrives at the table so I can use the calculator app to make sure I’ve added the tip correctly. Sure, I can add, but in the distracted state of dinner conversation, I’d rather be safe than embarrassed.

So there is no logical reason why this poor math student would celebrate 3/14 – Pi Day. That is, until the food community added an ‘e’ to the end and converted it to Pie Day.

Now, I’m in.

I’ve made a few sweet and savor pies over the years. Some with classic ingredients, others with whole grains and coconut oil and a few that are specific to countries around the world. In celebration of Pie Day, here are a few of my very favorites. (Click on the name to go to the recipe.)

Peanut Pie from Pie by Ken Haedrich
Borekitas from Hazan Family Favorites (Spinach and Feta Stuffed Pies)
Chocolate Fleur de Sel Caramel Tart from Pie It Forward
Mini Peanut Butter Apple Pies
South African Hertzoggies
Gooseberry Pie with Coconut Oil Crust
Spiced Whole Grain Apple Pie
