Miss American Pie. February 2018.

Yes, I came all the way to Denmark to learn how to make American Pie. The American Pie Company is a wonderful little place that sells sweet and savory pies and teaches pie-making classes on occasion. I took a class with some friends, and we learned how to make a hot pie and a cold pie, with a pre-baked crust (they called it a blind bake.) A really fun morning, and I left feeling pretty proud of myself (and with two pies.)

Look, I’m making pie crust. From scratch.

Cherry filling in, Lattice done, crust crimped (kinda) and egg wash on. So far, so good.

Ready to roll. Apple Pie and Cherry Pie.

Tucking into some Chicken Pot Pie and tea while the hot pies bake.

Starting my lemon curd, and enjoying some of American Pie Company’s sweet pies.

The Hot Pies are done.

Whipped up my meringue and added it to my lemon curd. A little toasting, and its perfect.
