Holiday Meals



What is a Holiday meal without a pie or two or three? Everyone loves a good pumpkin pie with a dollop of whip cream on top or cool whip or even ice cream. Another good one is apple. Everyone loves a good apple pie, especially if they are made with homemade tender crust. Cherry, Blueberry and Peach are some of my favorites. I make my own pie crust that is just melt in your mouth.

Two Crust Pie Crust

2 cups flour 1/2 cup oil 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 5 Tbsp cold milk

Mix altogether gently in medium mixing bowl by hand, divide in 2 and roll out between 2 sheets of waxed paper.

Bake all pies at 350 degrees until golden brown.

Divide recipe in half for a one crust pie like pumpkin.

Also dip fingers in a little milk and spread gently all over the top of a 2 crust pie, sprinkle with sugar before baking. Makes them golden brown.
