    The Best Southern Pecan Pie Recipe.

    November 22, 2020 /

    I spent a little time in Atlanta in the early 2000s and we went to this Farmers Market and they had some of the absolute best Pecan Pie I’d ever had, even to this day I would say it’s some of the best. If you’ve ever been to Atlanta or the Southern United States you know that they really do have the best pecan pie! I still think about this pecan pie often and have tried to recreate it many times. I think I have come pretty close to it with this recipe. The secret I find is in the corn syrup. For the longest time, I was only using…

    Classic Blueberry Galette Are the Best Desserts

    November 21, 2020 /

    I became obsessed with galettes on a trip to Vancouver. Kevin and I went to Terra’s Breads and they have a blueberry tart that I fell in love with. I ordered just one to start and by the end, I had eaten three of them. It was so delicious that before we left Vancouver on that trip we made one more trip to Terra’s Bread to get a few more for the drive home. Every time now that I am in Vancouver I have to make a trip there to purchase some of those tarts to hold me over until the next time I go. I decided to try and…

    The Perfect Pumpkin Pie Recipe, Not Just For Thanksgiving

    October 5, 2020 /

    Fall this year in Southern Alberta has been beautiful! I don’t remember when we have has these unbelievable temperatures in October! The Fall colours are in full effect right now and I am enjoying every minute of it. Canadian Thanksgiving is just around the corner and every year I make some pumpkin pies. I’m not a huge fan of pumpkin but Kevin loves it so I always make sure to make a couple just for him. I wish I could say I made this recipe but it comes from E.D Smith and they have perfected it so I don’t really feel there is room to improve it. One year I…

The payoff though for great pie crust is absolutely worth it. Nothing tastes better than homemade pie crust! The flakiness and the buttery taste are so delicious. When making pie crust here are some tips that will help so you get the perfect crust every time.
