Apple and Raspberry Pie
It is time for a pie ebook, I have learned that much in writing this post. Filed away in my 2024 projects folder. This apple pie is not of course strictly apple, but it is pretty, delicious, delicately sweet, traditional and will become a firm favourite in your household I am sure! There is not a lot of sugar in the filling, but you won't notice. It is just perfect!
Make sure you serve it with billowy mounds of Perfect Whipped Cream, though the Pink Whipped Cream is pretty cute as well.
We do have quite a few sweet pies on this site, largely due to my days spent in America. I love a pie still, it maybe my favourite dessert (with ice cream of course!)
Try some of our other pies, even if you have never made one before, it is time to become a pie-oneer!
