You’Il feel right at home when you read the recipes in this chapter— they’re heirloom desserts, adapted by each generation of new country cooks, and almost every family has inherited a few. We give you a roundup of our readers’ and our own favorites.

Deep-dish pies are just right for people who like double the amount of fruit filling and half as much pastry as in the regular 2-crust pie. Try the richly colored Deep Peach-Plum Pie for a summer treat. It’s a classic example of wonderful, two-fruit flavor and color blends.
