5. Voted Sweet Potato.
But a combo of Sweet Potato with Pecans on the top is my fave. A nice warm piece with vanilla ice cream.

(You have to add a little bourbon to the sweet potato for that extra kick)

Which reminds me, I need to lose 10+ pounds between now and December 15 to allow for the 15+ I'll gain while in Miami for the holidays. Mom never forgets to make my favorite pies while I'm there.

8. Sweet mother of God, I can't believe you IGNORED rhubarb!
Edited on Thu Nov-13-03 03:48 PM by Rabrrrrrr
You and your anti-rhubarb agenda.

obviously, DU is a place where it's wrong to be bigoted against women, but apparently perfectly okay to be bigoted against those of us who love rhubarb.

I see no difference between those sins.

Fine.

Be that way.

How long do rhubarb lovers have to remain silent under the TYRRANY of apple-lovers? it's unfair, and I'm sick and tired of being forced to be quiet about my likes.

:evilgrin:

(I really, really, really do like rhubarb pie, though)

Edited on Thu Nov-13-03 03:58 PM by supernova
I like 'em all except cherry and coconut.

Love:

Chocolate and Lemon meringue (specialties here in the south),
Key Lime (ditto),
Sweet potato (better than pumpkin IMO),
Pecan, and
Missippi Mud pie.

:9 :9 :9 :9 :9 :9 :9 :9

edit: I'm taking a stand. I unequivocally state here and now that I prefer pie to cake. Pie is the superior dessert.

My favorite is Lemon Blueberry Pie.

Fresh Blueberries in a baked pie shell topped with lemon mousse. Everyone says ewwwww when they hear about it, but I havent met one person yet who has tried it and didnt like it.

58. same deal for Blueberry Grunt...
(you read that right!) blueberry grunt from Maine....a cross between a blueberry cobbler and a pie, thickened with (hold on) sharp blue cheese, which melts away into a cream cheese-like mousse that binds the wild blueberries to the buttered bread crumbs. Guests are slightly leary of it until their first bite...then a serious addiction sets in and everyone's writing down the recipe.

Im surprised I've never heard of it or eaten it. I do make my own spiced blueberry jam however and eat it on bagels with cream cheese. I imagine its probably very similar. Thanks for the idea!!

52. here's another vote for blueberry . . .
used to have a great patch of blueberry bushes that were over 30 years sold and kicked out tons of berries every year . . . never had to tend them or anything . . . used to let the neighbors come in and pick as much as they wanted, let the birds have their share, and there was still plenty to keep me stocked through the winter . . . blueberry pies, blueberry muffins, blueberry everything . . . love 'em . . . :)

(sold that house many years ago, but I'll be the blueberries are still crankin' . . .)

I visit OR a few times a year to see my mom. And I always come home with a supply of marionberry jam.

I've also been known to wander the forests gorging on wild blackberries in season.

56. gravenstein apple pie
Absolutely the best. My crust is the best, too. (Pardon my lack of modesty, but it really is.) Gravenstein apples have a short season, unfortunately.

Also like lemon angel pie, made in a meringue shell with lemon curd and whipped cream. It's heaven.

Does anyone use lard in their crust? I've been considering it instead of crisco but wonder if it handles differently.

59. My Key lime pie is different from "traditional" Key lime pies
The "traditional" Key lime pie is basically Eagle brand milk with Key lime juice in it. Mine is more like lemon pie, but with a thick layer of whipped cream on top instead of a meringue.

I also make a killer chocolate pie with coconut in the bottom of the filling.
