The Amish are famous for their incredible food, especially baked goods. Laura Anne Lapp illustrates that in her excellent cookbook, Amish Pies: Traditional Fruit, Nut, Cream, Chocolate, and Custard Pies. There are so many mouthwatering pies in this cookbook, pie bakers will swoon.

The recipes are written in the traditional manner, with a list of ingredients followed by step-by-step instructions that are easy to follow whether it be by beginning bakers or those with lots of baking experience. The book starts out with five different crusts, and goes through plenty of helps and tips to make beautiful, tender crusts. Of course, the best part of the cookbook includes dozens of mouthwatering pies that will make it difficult to decide which pie to make next.

Another positive aspect of this cookbook is that it includes gorgeous, professional photographs of the finished pies, as well as in the instructions on the basics such as pie crusts.

All told, this is the only pie cookbook anyone could need. There are recipes for almost every pie imaginable, and recipes that can use personal variations. Since most of us serve pies during the holidays, especially at Thanksgiving, this book will be a bible for adding new flavors of pies to serve. This book is highly recommended.
