It’s been a month since I started posting about fruit desserts and I’m loving it. I have successfully done 10 fruit dessert recipes and I’m killing it. Well, today I’ll be sharing 10 homemade pie recipes. This has been on my mind for a very long time but I kept rescheduling it, I really need to stop procrastinating, it’s becoming a habit. So here we are, I know a lot of pie recipes as I have had and done many, but my best is(oops can’t say, you just have to wait).

Pies are a very popular dessert as every country in the world has different recipes. I can’t count the number of pies that I have seen and eaten, so narrowing this list to 10Is a difficult thing, but I’ll try(that why we’re here though).

I love pie recipes because they’re very good for the health. Different fruit pie recipe has different taste and different health benefit as well. So if you’re a fan of healthy desserts, then you’re in the right place. And yes, I’ve got some bonus recipes, they’re not fruits but they’re healthy. So without further ado, let’s check out my 10 best pie recipes.

How do you keep a rhubarb pie from being runny? ›

Cornstarch: A bit of cornstarch helps thicken the filling.

What is the number 2 most important thing when making pie crust? ›

#2—Add cold water

Add the ice water gradually to the dough, about one tablespoon or so at a time, and stop when the dough is just moist enough to hold together when a handful is squeezed.

What shelf should you bake a pie on in the oven? ›

A pie's place in the oven is on the bottom rack. The worst mistake you can make with your pie is under-baking the bottom crust—it makes for a soggy, doughy mess. Baking your pie on the bottom rack will ensure that bottom crust gets nice and golden brown. Speaking of which: bake your pie in a glass pie dish.

What apples should not be used for apple pie? ›

There are a few apples that don't make the cut. While great for snacking, Gala, Fuji and Red Delicious are the most common apples that won't hold up in the oven and will give you a watery-mushy pie, tart or cake.

What 4 apples are best used for baking? ›

Which apples bake best? For the best pies, crisps, and other baked treats, apples need to be firm enough to hold their own during the cooking process. We call these apples “baking apples” and to namedrop, they include Braeburn, Cortland, Honey Gold, Jonathan, Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Haralson, and Newtown Pippin.

What apples can you mix together for apple pie? ›

My best apple pie would include a combination of these three: Cortland, for flavor; Russet, for texture; and Granny Smith, for its combination of the two.

What ingredient makes pies tough? ›

Tough pie crusts are typically the result of working the dough too much (again, gluten).

What's the secret to a good pie crust? ›

The number one tip most pie dough recipes will emphasize is using cold butter, cold water, cold hands—really cold everything. The colder the butter (or shortening) stays in the dough, the more it can stay self-contained until it hits the oven, creating bigger pockets of air.

What makes pie filling thicker? ›

Some pie recipes thicken the filling with flour; others use cornstarch, while others still rely on tapioca.

How do you keep the bottom crust of a fruit pie from getting soggy? ›

Sprinkle dried breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes, or other types of cereal, on the bottom crust before filling and baking in the oven.

Is frozen rhubarb as good as fresh? ›

You can use frozen rhubarb the same way as fresh: in sauces, pies, crumbles, and beyond. Although thawing the rhubarb isn't necessary for cooking, you can do so by leaving it out for a few hours if you wish.

Why did my apple pie turn out watery? ›

One of the chief reasons bakers end up with apple soup under the crust is failure to bake their pie long enough. There's almost no such thing as over-baking an apple pie; I've baked apple pies for 2 hours and longer, and they turn out just fine.

What is the secret of good pastry? ›

Water, however, is absorbed much less easily into flour proteins when the temperature is colder. That's why purists recommend cold ingredients, cold equipment and marble boards. Keeping the butter cold also helps when making short crust pastry because it doesn't melt into the flour when you are working it in.

What are 2 tips for rolling out pie crust? ›

Using rolling pin, roll out dough “disc” into a circle. Every few rolls, turn dough slightly to ensure it's not sticking to counter or pin, and to get the most even circle possible. Roll until it's about 12 inches across (unless directed otherwise) and about 1/8 of an inch thick.

What is the most important rule in making a pie crust? ›

The most important step is cutting the cold fat into the flour. If you don't do this, you'll lose the flakiness, which, for me, makes pie worth every single calorie. The easiest way to do this is with a food processor. Add your flour and then your cold fat (cut up into smaller tablespoon-size chunks).
