I seem to have lost my apple pie recipe on the blog. I know for sure I had written up a post and had a photo to go along with it. I made a pie today and thought I should update the post including photos, just to find that it is missing! Oh well I guess that just means I get to write a new post up for you! …
Pies
Peach Pie
We are really enjoying peach season this year, from cobbler, jam, grilled peaches, and pies we cannot get enough of these juicy and sweet peaches! Too bad it only lasts for a few weeks in August. Today I am sharing with you my peach pie, it’s a family favourite…much like all my pies!

Sweet Potato Pie
I shared my recipe for sweet potato pie years ago on a Facebook page I once had, then I shared it on my fan page a few years ago, now finally it has made its way on the blog! What took so long you may ask? I don’t know really! Well its here now, and its a great recipe! My youngest daughter loves it, its light and fluffy…that is what I like about it. …
Meat Pies – Lahmacun
Meat pies or lahmacun as they are called in Turkish are my absolutely my favourite kind of pie! There are two versions. You can either bake them in the oven or cook top with a frying pan and lid; both ways are delicious. The one on the stove top uses a flat bread recipe, the one I am sharing is with dough that is baked in the oven.

Lemon Meringue Pie
Lemon Meringue Pie is my husbands favourite pie, it was the first pie I ever made, and for some reason whenever I make it I feel like I accomplished something great haha!
…
Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
I had 4 cups of cut of rhubarb, which I thought would be enough but the pan I used I guess was deep and it just didn’t look like enough filling….I had some strawberries so I sliced them up and mixed them in with the rhubarb…
Mini Apple Pies
My family loves when I make them apple pie…..thing is I like Dutch apple and my hubby likes a pie crust on top! Kids like both, so this way is perfect! Making them into individual pies makes everyone happy! I make them in a Texas muffin pan, if you don’t have one I am sure a regular muffin pan would work….
Rhubarb Pie
This was my first time making rhubarb pie….and preparing rhubarb for that matter.
The first day the pie was a bit tangy, but by the next day it was sweet and tasted even better!…
Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake
This is our families favourite pumpkin cheesecake, reason it kinda taste like a pie hence the name Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake! We love our pumpkin pie and we love cheesecake, since cheesecake is filled with fat and calories I make mine light so my kids can get away with more slices than one 😉
Oh and I had some leftover homemade caramel sauce that just made it even better, you can use store bought if you don’t have any homemade 🙂

Pie Crust
My grandma Ruby is or was at her time the best pie maker in town, her pies were known around the county. She made them at the restaurants that my grandparents owned and ran with their kids including my mom, they had more than one restaurant and in different counties. She made a variety of pies on a daily basis.
She taught me how to make pies when I was younger, she uses shortening in her pies , I do at times but I mostly use butter, I sometimes even add coconut oil…I am not afraid to experiment with pie crust or fillings for that matter. It’s all in the technique, once you get that down you will become a pie making expert! I share two different recipes on this post, both are great. You can try either or both and see which you like best. Hope you enjoy the tutorial!…
