Threw together a couple of apple pies

I only buy bread for the free pantry.
I bake it occasionally but we don't eat very much bread.
I buy my flour and sugar at Costco.
Butter and cream too.
Good vanilla and all the spices are up as is Ghirardelli chocolate.
Baking is therapeutic for me so we end up giving more away than we keep.@NorcalGma2 I love baking also; because of that great aunt, for a while in 3rd-4th grade I had a subscription to Gourmet magazine. These days my guys are all grown. My youngest graduates from college on Friday and will boomerang home for a while - he's my baker and always has room for desserts.
-
Oh my.
Between my husband and I we ate a quarter of the pie for dessert.
It was still warm.
So good.
Hopefully I can muster some restraint before it looks good for breakfast tomorrow too.
@NorcalGma2 Another quarter for breakfast tomorrow sounds very restrained, if you ask me.

@NorcalGma2 add a piece of cheddar cheese and it's a complete meal with fiber, carbs, protein...

I've been craving lemon meringue in graham cracker crust. I hardly ever make things like that for myself, especially lemon meringue doesn't keep very well. I should see if any of my friends like it. Some people don't (!) . It was a favorite when I baked in restaurants. -

@NorcalGma2 Few things nicer than pie for breakfast. I hope you do it.

@NorcalGma2
You can't be tempted with pie for breakfast if there's no pie left at breakfast

@RnDanger @NorcalGma2 Prudence suggests that you bake another one tonight, just in case.

I love lemon meringue and used to bake them to sell for charity event auctions. A coworker bought a 9" pie and ate the whole thing in one sitting.
One of my favorites but I always use my regular butter crust. -

@NorcalGma2 my wife had a farming ancestor on the Great Plains that had a pie and a pork chop every day to fuel their work β that was it! If the pies were as good as yours looks, I can see how it would make a good breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

I will have to try that. I bought a box of biscoff biscuits for my next crust. -

@NorcalGma2 The way it looks makes me think that its chances of surviving the night in our house would not be so good.
Yummy. -
Threw together a couple of apple pies.
One for the kids and one for us.
@NorcalGma2 in my house this is the kind of thing we say when there were actually 3 pies to begin with

@NorcalGma2 Pie? For breakfast?! Scandalous!
Better go ahead and start calling it a strudel or a danish to be safeβ¦

@kaiser_franz @NorcalGma2 I'd eat that for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, and a midnight snack! Dang, I just might have to dig my Longaberger pie plate out of the kitchen wear I packed for my move the other day and make an apple pie!

@NorcalGma2 @lisamelton It appears to be missing whipped cream?!
