fruit pies

Apple pie: American icon, most popular pie, and the ONE dessert everyone has to make for Thanksgiving. With its flaky, buttery crust; tart-sweet apples, and wonderful cinnamon-y aroma, a slice of warm apple pie is the perfect end to any repast, from casual lunch to elegant dinner. Add vanilla bean ice cream, and you’ve got a dessert for the ages.

This is one of the many dishes that celebrate the grape harvest in upstate New York. The pie's flaky, buttery crust encases lots of fresh, juicy grapes with barely anything else added, so all the seasonal flavor shines through.

It's mid-summer. Raspberries are at the end of their season, and blackberries and blueberries are ripening quickly. You have some of each of these berries — but not enough of any for a full recipe. Say hello to bumbleberry pie! Pie is usually made with just one type of berry, but blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries are delicious in combination: their subtle differences in both texture and flavor are wonderfully complementary.

Bumbleberry Pie

(56 grams) cornstarch

(248 grams) granulated sugar

(425 grams) blueberries

(300 grams) raspberries

(425 grams) blackberries

The simple no-bake filling for this pie combines the body of cooked blueberries and the texture of fresh — plus the delicious flavor of both! Pour the filling into a tender, buttery prebaked pie crust, garnish with pretty crust cutouts, and enjoy the rave reviews.

A flaky, tender crust... cinnamon-y apple filling... Pie, right? Well, kind of. The ingredients are all pie; but the pan is rectangular, rather than round. The result? An ideal "apple pie" for potlucks and other occasions when you want a larger number of smaller servings. You can easily cut this pie into 12 to 16 servings - try THAT with a typical 9" pie!

With its retro vibe, this play on classic chiffon pie is noteworthy for its tender rye shortcrust and its bright, light chiffon filling. The zesty cranberry curd and smooth, sweet Swiss meringue play beautifully together. And the gelatin helps the filling set just right so that once refrigerated, the pie can be sliced neatly. This is a show-stopping pie worthy of an extra-special Thanksgiving, Friendsgiving, or other autumnal celebration.

The Cranberry Chiffon Pie was one of our Bake of the Week recipes for November 2021.

The "Dutch" in this recipe's title refers not to the Netherlands, but instead to America's Pennsylvania Dutch community and their tradition of topping many of their classic pies not with a second crust, but with a buttery streusel crumb topping. If you're not a huge fan of rolling out pie crusts, this apple streusel pie recipe cuts the task in half!

King Arthur&#039;s Dutch Apple Pie

(120 grams) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour

(92 grams) solid vegetable shortening or 8 tablespoons (113 grams) unsalted butter

nutmeg (to taste)

(92 grams) light brown sugar or dark brown sugar packed

Fresh peaches, scented with almond and vanilla and lightly sweetened, are baked in a golden wraparound crust. Serve with vanilla ice cream for a dessert that fairly sings of summer.

Summertime Peach Pie

(1134 grams) fresh peach slices (about 10 peeled peaches sliced)

Strawberries + rhubarb = a match made in heaven! This pie has wonderful flavor, the assertive tang from the rhubarb perfectly balanced by sweet, ripe strawberries. Tangy and colorful, this pie is the essence of summer.

Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie

Sweet strawberries and piquant rhubarb are one of spring’s finest combinations. Here they star in a buttery, tender-crispy puff pastry galette. Choose the rye crust for a base note of nuttiness, or use classic puff pastry for a flakier take on traditional strawberry-rhubarb pie. Finish these gorgeous galettes with a dollop of whipped cream or scoop of ice cream to complement their bright flavors and make them extra indulgent.

This flexible combination of fruits, possibly including apple, rhubarb, blackberry, raspberry, strawberry, and blueberry, is often referred to as "bumbleberry" pie. We love to combine all the leftover frozen berries from last summer's harvest, and jumble (bumble) them up into one tasty pie filling: bumbleberry.

Feel free to use this filling in a traditional double-crust pie. But we love to showcase the berries' vibrant colors by placing them in an oversized bottom crust, then bringing the edges up to partially cover the berries, while leaving the center of the filling uncovered.

Mixed Berry Pie

vegetable shortening*

(99 grams) granulated sugar

(18 grams) lemon juice fresh preferred

Lemon meringue pie is one of America's favorite pies. Why do we like THIS version? Its filling is perfect: not too tart, not too sweet, bursting with lemon flavor. And the crust is made with vegetable oil rather than butter or shortening. Use a very mild olive oil, and you'll be treating yourself to a heart-healthy "good fat." Looking for a more typical butter/shortening crust? We highly recommend our <a href="//www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/classic-single-pie-crust-recipe">Classic Single Pie Crust.</a>
