Patriotic Pie Contest

Our national birthday is coming up, so let’s get ready to celebrate!  What’s your version of a 4^th of July Pie? 

What characteristics of America would you want to celebrate?  Our commitment to democracy?  Our 3 branches of government?  Our willingness – in the end – to embrace diversity and inclusiveness?  Our vision of freedom and liberty for all?  A particular part of America that’s special to you?  I can see a “Yellowstone Park Pie” or a “Purple Waves of Grain Pie.”  Or maybe a “Southern Summer Pie.”

Pick a theme and go for it!  Send your recipe in by June 30^th and we’ll pick one to post on the 1^st of July (so there will be time to make it for the 4^th).  Yes, your recipe could be featured on www.piepals.com!

Maybe you already have a favorite 4^th of July Pie – great!  Or maybe you want to make up a new one.  Either is welcome.

Criteria:

• Name your pie according to the American value or place you want to celebrate
• Originality counts!
• Get it here by end of day June 30^th

For inspiration, here’s a photo from the American Pie Championship held this April.  It has 3 sections with different fruits in red, white and blue colors -- cherries, apples and blueberries – with a twist of crust separating each.  How did the baker keep the sections separate?  I don’t know but I was impressed with the design!

I think I’ll dream up a “Liberty Pie” or maybe an “Equal Rights” pie.  How about you?!?  Enter now!
