Cherry Galette

Mon, 23 Jul 2007 23:10:04 -0400

I discovered the ease of Recipe #94405 recently, and my non-baking self fell in love. When I was overloaded with sweet cherries, I had to find a galette recipe to use them. This is an adaptation of a recipe found at an online wine site. That recipe used a homemade crust, but I think that the part of the appeal of the galette for me, aside from satisfying my sweet tooth, is the ease of using the refrigerated ones. -- posted by ms_bold

BH&G, June 2007, p. 276. If I tell my wife that it has peaches in it, she may not eat it. So, when I do make this, it'll be for an event. That way, I can ensure that someone will eat it...other than myself, of course. -- posted by John J. O'Sullivan

Peach Pie With Almond-Pecan Streusel

Thu, 06 Sep 2007 12:14:55 -0400

Cut from our local newspaper a few years ago. It has become a family favorite. "If apple is the quintessential American pie, then peach is surely our summertime favorite, and all the more if it's served a la mode. To make a peach pie worth of the name, use fully ripe fruit and a pastry crust that's rich and tender but still sturdy enough to contain its sweet, juicy burden without collapsing. To remove the skins from peaches easily, pour boiling water over them, then quickly dip fruit into ice water. Use your fingers or a small knife to slip off the skins. This recipe calls for a crumbly nut topping, but you could substitue a classic lattice crust that lets the fruit show through. Serve the pie warm or at room temperatue, with or without ice cream. To gauge the amount of sugar and cornstarch to use, take your cue from the ripeness of the peaches; if they are very sweet-tasting and quite juicy, use the smaller amount of sugar and the large amount of cornstarch." -- posted by Beth A.

Easy Peach-Cream Pie

Thu, 06 Sep 2007 15:57:05 -0400

This is an easy recipe that is delicious served warm or cold, I have made it many times and it always turns out great, use only whipping cream for this--haven't tried as yet but I think this would work well using apples in place of peaches and increase the cinnamon amount, you might want to give that a try--see my recipe#66929 -- posted by KITTENCAL

Best-Of-Show Cherry Pie

Tue, 30 Oct 2007 00:49:26 -0400

Hosted a 4-H Food Project meeting at my home featuring "Fall Produce". Although I had planned to use pumpkins, apples and cranberries for the from-scratch fillings, I figured this is another way to make a pie (from the can). She made a beautiful job of it by putting a lattice top-crust on it, then glazing with an egg wash, and sprinkling with baker's sugar crystals. When it came out of the oven, the kids and I decided this was "Best of Show" -- it was so pretty and perfectly beautiful. -- posted by Debber

Delana's Favorite Southern Peach Pie

Mon, 25 Feb 2008 18:12:51 -0500

I made this pie, originally mistaking it with a Southern Pecan Pie recipe. Thinking it an odd way to make a peach pie I followed what I thought was a recipe for Southern "Peach" Pie. I didn't catch my error until after my sister "Delana" declared my Peach Pie the best she's ever eaten and wanted the recipe. That is when I caught my mistake. I went back to write the recipe down for her and immediately relalized why I thought this was a strange way to make peach pie. HA HA! We've laughed about it ever since and my sister still declares this her favorite "Southern Peach Pie". -- posted by cpck1966

Prune Pie

Fri, 14 Mar 2008 01:11:16 -0400

This recipe is more like a giant prune turnover. This is found on many of the pueblos here in NM, and is a great dessert. The crust is more like a cross between a cookie and bread. This recipe is from a small pamphlet called "Sampling New Mexico Foods" printed in 1983, for the E. J. Martinez Elementary School. This recipe is definitely one for those who like to experiment. Many of the ingredients are approximate, as are the prep and cooking times. It's been years since I made this. I've usually seen it done such that the cinnamon is dusted over the top of the crust, instead of added to the prunes. -- posted by SacredCaramelofLife

Rustic Summer Peach Berry Tart

Wed, 02 Jul 2008 02:06:02 -0400

This tart is not only pleasing to the eye but the taste buds as well. The crust is meant to be hand-crimped in a rustic fashion, so don't worry about perfection. I used peaches, strawberries and blueberries, but good substitutes for the berries would be raspberries or blackberries. A sprinkling of powdered sugar atop this tart makes for elegant presentation.

This is a wonderful summer dessert. Everyone at the family reunion has gotten to expect it. It is easy to "lighten up" by using low fat and sugar free ingredients. If you use fresh peaches instead of canned sprinkle some lemon juice over them to prevent browning. I make the 4th layer first because it takes so long for it to cool. Is better if made a day ahead. -- posted by tammy dalton

Peaches and Cream Tart

This recipe from Food and Drink magazine is a perfect summer dessert as it doesn't require any baking. It is very simple to prepare, using a prepared graham crumb crust and canned peaches. You can vary the flavour by using a chocolate crumb crust. If fresh peaches are in season, use 3 fresh peaches which have been peeled and pitted. Chilling time is cooking time. -- posted by Irmgard

Cherry Crisp Pie

Tue, 12 Aug 2008 16:58:49 -0400

I was in the mood for cherry pie but didn't want to make pie crust, so I improvised and made a cherry crisp in pie form. The recipe calls for fresh cherries, but you could substitute canned pie filling if they happen to be out-of-season. We liked this pie served a la mode and thought the sweetness of the crust and topping was a good balance with the tartness of the cherries. -- posted by MarthaStewartWanabe

Plum Torte

Fri, 15 Aug 2008 18:24:02 -0400

My friend gave me boxed of Japanese plums from her plum tree and I've been finding ways to enjoy them. This torte can be served for breakfast or dessert topped with a bit of ice-cream. The plums keep it from becoming too sweet. What I especially enjoy about this cake is that it is a perfect cake to freeze and bring out at a later date when you will appreciate a taste of summer. I haven given this cake to neighbors, friends, and family members and everyone loves it. You can also use other stone fruits if you would like. If you do not have a spring form pan, you can line a 9 inch cake pan with foil leaving an overhang over the edges of the pan. Oil the foil generously. Use the foil to "pull" the cake out of the pan when ready. From Cooking for Comfort. -- posted by cookiedog

Tarte Aux Abricots - Glazed French Apricot Tart With Almonds

Mon, 06 Jul 2009 14:12:06 -0400

This is my favourite type of French fruit tart, even more so than apple tart! Our local Patisserie makes a wonderful Tarte aux Abricots, but they are quite expensive and VERY large, much too big for the two of us when we have no B and B guests! So, I have been tinkering in the kitchen again, and have come up with this recipe. You MUST use fresh apricots for this - tinned ones are too soft and too sweet. Plus, I love the slightly tart flavour that the fresh apricots lend to the flavours of this tart. The ground almonds are scattered over the base of the short crust pastry case to stop it becoming soggy during cooking; they also provide a complimentary flavour to the apricots. A classic French tart that will make a delightful ending to any special meal or for afternoon tea. Serve this tart with fresh whipped cream or crème fraiche. -- posted by French Tart

Sour Cream Peach Pie

Tue, 04 Aug 2009 15:37:17 -0400

This recipe is from Farm Journal's Complete Pie Cookbook. I purchased the book in 1970 when I moved into my first apartment after college. In 1972 I made this for my husband and it quickly became his birthday dessert. I just made this pie for friends that came to visit from the State of Washington and they loved it too. Can be made with canned peaches BUT I only use fresh! I make the pie crust the day before and have it chilling in the refrigerator ready to be rolled out. -- posted by Kathy in Dearborn

Prize-Winning Peach Pie

Mon, 24 Aug 2009 01:54:08 -0400

As a beginning cook, I especially liked to practice making pies. Peaches are probably my favorite fruit (but only when in season), so it was a pie I practiced often. I finally got up the nerve to enter a local Grange Fair, and was so surprised to win! That was great encouragement for a novice pie maker. -- posted by JackieOhNo!

Deep Dish Peach Streusel Pie

Tue, 25 Aug 2009 16:10:43 -0400

This is VERY loosely based on some of the pie instructions in How to Cook Everything. I've done a lot of adjusting and tweaking. A food processor is used to make the pie dough. I like the filling with all brown sugar, but you can substitute all white sugar, or use a combination. The topping is best with brown sugar. I prefer walnuts for the topping, but any kind of nut is okay. -- posted by Chocolatl

This recipe was given to me many years ago. I brought it to a company function once and it was requested for the next 15 years. Not your traditional "Pie", but a great mix of textures. Warning.... if you're on a diet, pass on this one. -- posted by Chef Vic #2

Rose Almond Cherry Pies

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 01:22:20 -0500

These indvidual cherry pies are made beautifully fragrant with marzipan and a hint of rosewater. My own recipe! Good enough to serve at the end of a dinner party with whipped double cream or vanilla ice cream (in which case, I'd suggest 2 pies each). All the refrigeration during the recipe helps stop the pastry becoming tough when baked. -- posted by elmsyrup
