so, i grew up in a household where my mother was afraid of pie crust so she always bought the boxed stuff. let me tell you it's nothing to fear! also if you have rolling anxiety you can roll out between two sheets of parchment paper, waxed paper, saran wrap, two grocery store bags if you are trying to reduce reuse recycle and don't care about germs... and then transfer and peel off your roll out sandwich and you don't have to worry about tears, rips, or holes. i love pie dough. maybe more than the filling. is this wrong? if it is i don't wanna be right. even with the leftover dough from my mother's pie she would let me "sculpt" and cover it in cinnamon and sugar and bake it along with the pie for the last ten/fifteen minutes. delish.

The only reason I don't do it is because of limited counter space, but I don't think it's that hard given the proper amount of room.

I've seen lots of pre made pie crusts without lard, though, maybe you guys should stop shopping at the lard store.

I made my first pie this thanksgiving. It was pumpkin, and mostly from a can, so that one might not count.

Pie crust is the best! Also, one of my New Year's Resolutions is to make more pies, because I haven't been making them as often and my pastry shortcrust skillz r getting rusty. !!!!!more PIES!!!!! PIES ARE AWESOME!!!!!

i thought this was going to be the low-fat baking book Isa mentioned on Facebook a while back, especially with the image Amazon has for the listing.

yes pie crust can sometimes be far superior to filling imo! glad i'm not the only freak like that out there! i used to squish all the cherries out of pie and enjoy the cherry sauce on the wonderful crust, oh and cut out cinnamon pie crust cookies are amazing!

I don't think I can buy this book because my partner will request pie every night and I just....can't handle that.

I am painfully inexperienced in the ways of pie-making. But if there is vegan key lime pie, I'm pretty sure that Boyfriend will wait for me to make it, then punch me in the face and devour the whole thing before I wake up.

I would like to formally request a vegan coconut cream pie.

Man I miss those.

I saw that and wanted to punch the author's cupcake bias in the face! Cakeist!

Oops! I confused that with another article I read today, in which the author was like "Pies!? Wut wut!? fork Pies! Cupcakes flicks the weasel!"

I'm taking this out of context and running with it.

Also, yay! Pies! I will buy pre made pie crusts because I don't shop at the lard store and I will make pies and crumbles and stuff. I don't give a damn about cheating. Then again, I can also make a pretty decent pie crust, but I'm just lazy.

I live in Texas! Everywhere is the lard store! Well, except Whole Foods, where I have indeed found and paid way too much for lard free crusts.

And Banana cream!! And Pecan!! I didn't realize how much I love pie until I read this thread and got hopeful about the possibilities.

My kingdom for one of these:

My family used to get these all the time, they don't sell them around here anymore. If you've never had one, the whole thing is like whipped cream. Usually when I see recipes for cream pie it means, this flavor of filling with cream on top.

This!

my husband is a pie freak and insisted we had pie at our wedding instead of grooms cake
i think if i got this he might be the happiest boy in the world. in fact he's singing about it in the kitchen right now.
we're united in our love of food

i'm obsessed with this cornmeal crust i got from a torte in VT a few years ago, it has the best mouth feel
