Celebrate the Summer with Freshly Chilled or Fruit Flavored Pies
Summer is the season of peaches, plums, and so many berries, perfect for making a plethora of delicious fruit-flavored pies, as well as icebox and chilled pies for those hot summer days.
Summer Sweet Pies
While most pies complement just about any event or occasion, sometimes it’s nice to have that perfect pie to pair with your outdoor BBQ or whatever you may be doing over the summer. For instance, most places will recommend a key lime pie no matter the activity, but with so many pies to choose from, it’s good to have some variety to spice up your life.
Outdoor Pies
Peach, cherry, apple, and berry pies work great for outings like picnics in the park or even home cookouts. Serve hot from the oven or at room temperature.
If you’re expecting a lot of guests, ensuring everyone gets a slice of the fruity goodness can sometimes be an issue with the traditional smaller round pies. However, these pies can easily be turned into a slab pie by baking them in a flat baking sheet pan, so there is plenty to go around for everyone.
Chilled Pies for the Sweet Tooth
Home and indoor events open a wider realm of possibilities because you don’t have to worry about your pie melting in the heat. Boston cream pies and coconut cream pies are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth with their smooth, creamy texture. Or you could try your hand at an icebox pie. These pies are served right from the freezer and come in a huge range of flavors, including lemon, peaches and cream, strawberry, chocolate, peanut butter, and many more.
Pie Prep
Sometimes, you will want to serve your pie fresh from the oven, and other times, you’ll need to create your delicious dessert a day or two in advance, depending on the recipe. In any case, it is best to make sure you have all the ingredients and necessary baking tools the day before you plan to make it. That way, you won’t have to stop during the creation process to run out and grab something last minute.
