I wish that book was available in Kindle. Good recipes. Everything you would need to know bout pies and pie making. Good for people such as myself who are not too crazy for pie eating. This book changed my mind and taste.

The word 'pie' conjures many sweet smelling memories of growing up with a grandmother who was an exceptional baker. I regret never asking her to teach me how to make the perfect crust, or how she made the apple pie filling with the perfect amount of seasoning and sweetness.

This is why when I came across Pie Academy I was excited that I may finally get my chance to create the dessert that had impacted my childhood.

Pie Academy does not disappoint. It is the pie book of all pies. Ken Haedrich is a true teacher who guides the reader through the basics, through best practices and techniques, while emphasizing the importance of practice in mastering the craft of pie making.

Reading through this book I felt like I was personally sitting in on a private cooking class. The photography will make you want to make every recipe in this book and the selection is so broad, every pie eater will indeed be satisfied. I even finally mastered the art of making pie crust, or at least I am practicing ;)

You want pie dough? Haedrich has provided 25 recipes. There are even options for those with gluten-free preferences. Perhaps you prefer fruit pies, custard, nut pies, diner classics or ice cream, recipes abound. My list of pies to make are growing thanks to Pie Academy.

Huge thank you to NetGalley and Storey Publishing for providing this ARC. This is a cookbook you will want to add to your collection!
