Blueberry was my father's favorite pie,and Darby was his name.  It makes me happy when I bake it and remember him.  Here's to our Dads!

This is first pie I ever made, the one that got me started on a lifetime of baking pies. It’s simple, delicious and easy! I’ve made it so many times I can make it by heart.

It's easy! It's so good! Especially for those who love lemon, this is a filling that meets that tart-sweet-rich need all at once. It won a blue ribbon in the "other pies" category at the state fair in 2011 for my pal, Havens.

It has a (now not so) secret ingredient that cuts the sugary sweetness of a traditional pecan pie and adds depth, The strips of pastry on top make it elegant and even more inviting. Took a Best of Show in 2007.

"Mmmm. Mmmmm!" That's what you'll hear as people taste this pie for the first time. This is a simple yet elegant pie, made with ingredients at hand. A perfect fall or winter pie, one that will surprise you with its delicate texture and satisfying flavors. This recipe took "Best of Show" at a state fair pie contest.

It's easy and it's chocolate!  Made with ingredients at hand, you can have pie for dessert any time.  See 'Baker's Notes' below for a gluten-free version.

"Custardy coconut, crunchy almonds, rich chocolate...all settled in a delicate crust.  It's dreamy and rich.  If you like Almond Joys, you'll love this."

Winner of the 'Merry Month of May' pie contest!  This recipe was created to use the Costa Rican sour oranges or 'mandarinas.'. They are very sour and are used in place of lemons.

This pastry is perfect for pear tarts and other tarts that have delicate flavors and/or nuts in the filling.

Some classic pies, like Key Lime, call for a graham cracker crumb crust.  A crust like this is always good with a creamy filling, and it freezes well!

What a gift from nature honey is!  And this tart puts honey and nuts right on top, where they belong.

It is just so delicious!

Some of us are looking for healthier versions of favorite desserts.  This crust recipe is based on olive oil and, while I've never made it myself, a friend says you don't taste the olive oil at all and it makes a delicious crust.  Let me know what you think!

Peach pie is my favorite, made with ripe, juicy, flavorful peaches.  This recipe saves those perfect peaches from summer time as frozen slices so that you can enjoy great peach pie all year.  Really, I was pleasantly surprised at how good this is!  The judges thought so, too, giving it a blue ribbon at the state fair this year.
