Welcome to Spring! Now here, have a bite of Strawberry Rhubarb MiniPie with the flakiest crust ever! I really have to pat myself on the back for these. I was a little skeptical as I was putting them together, but they are delicious!


I made two different styles, open top MiniPie (bottom) and a larger hand pie (top). Both are super yum but different. The hand pies have a higher crust to filling ratio, which normally I would not dig, but this crust is so light and flaky that it doesn't bother me in the slightest. I tried to stuff the MiniPies with as much filling as possible, so these have a very good crust:filling ratio.

The only thing that would make these any better would be some fresh whipped cream or creme fraiche. Just to off set the tartness of the rhubarb.

So... you want one? Where should I deliver?

back to basics + new tools

Hi there friends on the interwebs!

It's been a bit, for that I apologize. Pregnancy, as it turns out, is tiring and turns your brain to mush. But, I've been thinking about pies a lot lately and am feeling a shift in production modes. Wanting to get back to basics and simple recipes. Spring is in the air and in spite of (because of?) our schizo Portland weather I'm feeling antsy to be baking some delicious spring treats.

I stopped by Sheridan's this morning and got a hold of their first shipment of rhubarb! Yeppers! you guessed it... Strawberry Rhubarb MiniPies! They are in process as we speak.

In other fun news, I finally redeemed my Christmas present and got a food processor! Thanks Mom and Dad! Pie dough in 8 seconds flat. A-mazing. I'll let you know how the crust turns out!
















As always, thanks for the support!

ohhh, right, I have a blog, forgot about that...

Whoa there, Interwebs! My apologies for the oh so prolonged absence. I have a lot of things to tell you. I think a bullet point list might be the most efficient.

• Biggest news first: I have a baby pie in my oven! My lil babe is due July 22nd! We're very excited and a little nervous.
• Due to the babe, I will not be pursuing a booth at the farmers market this year. I figured one big life change at a time is more than enough to handle.
• Snack Attack Saturday has changed from a weekly event to a monthly event. The exact dates are still TBA, but there will be one on Saturday February 12th! See details below.
• Price change. Due to reevaluating my materials and labor costs I need to raise the cost of the mini pies. They are now $2 per pie. Larger orders get a price break to $18 per dozen. Minimum order is 2 dozen pies. Thank you for your continued support and understanding as I negotiate this path!
• I am actively pursuing special event orders! (Except not in July ;) Weddings, wedding showers, baby showers, birthdays, memorials, photo shoots, conferences, dance workshops... If you, or someone you know, is having a gathering that might require some yummy snacks, let me be of service! 

Snack Attack Saturday: The Valentine's Edition! 
February 12th, 11am-2pm @ the lobby of Vega Dance+Lab 1322 SE Water Ave Portland, OR 97214
Savory Pies: Roast beef/Asparagus/Gorgonzola in a Mashed Potato Crust (GF)
