Peanut Butter Pie FudgeThis is one delicious but time consuming fudge that I would only make occasionally!

Family Size Chicken Pot PieI am still doing my COVID meals for 4 families in my neighborhood. I am just loving it.

Purple Sweet Potato PieI'm sure many of you have had sweet potato pie. This pie is very similar but uses purple sweet potatoes. Baking the sweet potatoes in the oven (in lieu of boiling them) gives this a beautiful creamy consistency and not at all watered down. Baking them also retains their beautiful purple colour. Purple sweet potatoes can be found in grocery stores labeled as Okinawan, Hawaiian, or purple sweet potatoes. They are packed full of potassium, B6, vitamin C, and fiber.
Classy Apple PieMaking a pie from scratch might seem daunting, but it is so worth the effort!

Take the time and love to make a fresh, homemade pie and I swear, the flavor just cannot compare.

Rustic Apple GaletteThis is my mother's recipe for delicious apple galette that really suits the welcoming of the Autumn season. I love the flaky crust on the outside, with an inside that becomes almost custardy from the juices of the baked apples. It's so easy to make, it's a beginner's recipe, but the taste will have people thinking otherwise. Give it a try!
Stovetop Cheese TartA ThriftyFun reader had asked what they could do if they did not have a tart pan in order to make a tart recipe I had posted here. It made me think about other ways to make a tart, when there is no tart pan, or maybe not even having the use of an oven. This is my recipe on how to make a cheese tart in a pan on the stovetop. It's how my grandma used to make such desserts before she got her first oven installed. This is a cross between a standard tart and a cheesecake. I hope you give this a try. It's pretty fun!
Blooming French Strawberry TartMany of my family members live in France. One thing I look forward to having every time I visit is the classic French fruit tart. It's got a delicate crust topped with a custardy pastry cream (crème pâtissière), with fruit arranged beautifully on top to resemble a blooming flower. I finally learned how to make it myself so I don't have to long for it between visits. It's worth the effort, and I hope you give it a try!

Aunt Beaufort's Pecan PieI remember growing up in the 50's, that for all the family reunions and church picnics, my Great Aunt Beaufort always brought her homemade pecan pies. they were a favorite among many, including myself. I grabbed a piece just as soon as I could, because I knew they would get gone quickly.

Nothing says fall like pumpkin pie! : )
