This is a Unicorn in my household. Homemade, completely from scratch, Apple Pie. I can count the pies I’ve baked over the last 39 years with just my hands.
Why you ask? Well let’s see. The fact that it took me almost an entire day is a good place to start. How the heck do you pie bakers do it???
And then there’s my sister Jan. She is a master pie baker, and I always rely on her to bring them to all family dinners. Not to mention my Super Pastry Chef niece Rosalie.
On the Bryson side, between Janette and Grandma Ruby, we had more pie than we could ever eat. And now Diana and Erin do a great job at keeping us full!
Growing up, Mom baked lots of pies thanks to all of the fruit trees and raspberries and rhubarb dad grew and they froze. After he retired, Dad kinda took over the baking and was famous for his cakes and pies. Just ask any Mason in Burlingame!
I’m not sure what happened to me today, other than an over abundance of apples sitting in my kitchen. I can tell you I have a very happy husband at the moment!!
