Nooooo you bastard treacherous fruit!

I coated you in flour and this is the thanks I get?

I used to send my piemaking brag-photos to my sister, but she sometimes gets so forlorn about not getting to eat them! So I’ll post here.

Our #HomemadePieOfTheMonth for June (just squeaking in!) is Cherry Custard #Pie from Ken Haedrich’s book Pie Academy.Easy recipe — could have been easier still, but I chose to use fresh cherries!

After pitting a bunch of cherries, I paused baking prep to go (re-) purchase an ingredient, and almost forgot to wash my forearms as well as my hands. Best not to go out in public wearing a subtle blood spatter effect. 😬

May’s Homemade #Pie of the Month (somewhat last minute!) is Blueberry Banana Pudding Pie from the #cookbook Justice of the Pies by Maya-Camille Broussard. I haven’t made many pudding pies before and this one defied my expectations: a sweet but complex combination of flavors!

The sheer exasperation of trying a new recipe that is fussy, uses 3 kitchen appliances, and leaves vast windrows of dirty dishes…and finding that it is quite delicious and I definitely will want to eat it again in future. 🤦🏻‍♀️
