  • 15 January 2015

It doesn’t matter what your favorite pie is, we’re celebrating all varieties today with National Pie Day! The American Pie Council, along with pie lovers across the country are celebrating today by taking the time to enjoy their favorite slice.

Whether you like cherry pie hot out of the oven, apple pie served with a slice of old cheddar, or a lemon  meringue, today is the day to indulge and enjoy a slice or two. According to the American Pie Council, apple pie is the favorite pie enjoyed by Americans, followed by pumpkin pie, and pecan pie.

3 Tips For Making The Perfect Pie:

• When making your pie crust, remember that cold ingredients and materials, such as your hands, bowls and utensils are essential! Using cold ingredients such as shortening will be sure to give your crust that flaky consistency. Chilling your dough before rolling it out is also important to remember.

• The dough for your crust shouldn’t be over handled as it can result in a tougher dough.

• Fresh ingredients guarantee premium flavors. Choose seasonal ingredients for your pie fillings as much as possible to make sure your ingredients are always fresh.
