Pies

There is a wide range of baked goods that fall into the pie category, including traditional pies, tarts, cobblers, crumbles, and crisps. You will be excited to know that, with a few base recipes in your arsenal, you can put together any one of these with ease.

Because this chapter covers a vast array of possible pie options, it is laid out a bit differently than the previous chapters. Following you will find recipes for various bases, fillings, and toppings, along with guidelines about how you can mix and match these components to build your desired pastry. The chapter ends with a chart of popular pies and how to use the components to build them.
