Is there anything more joyful to feed people than pie? Custardy, creamy, jammy, nutty, tart—whatever its flavor and texture, pie is celebratory, often nostalgic and deeply delicious. It makes everyone happy.
I wanted flavors that were chic and cozy in equal measure, enticing enough to inspire you to try something new, but not too intimidating for bakers who break out the rolling pins only once a year.
I baked about five dozen pies to create the six recipes below and yes, I fell head over heels in the process. I reveled in how soothing and tactile it is to make pie.
It wasn't always this way. I always liked eating pie, but it didn't excite me and I didn't enjoy baking it. But with this project, I found joy.
