Want to serve unique, bright flavors in a flaky crust? Try this Blueberry peach pie recipe. With warm, sweet peaches, this pie is excellent and will celebrate the flavors of spring/summer as we move away from colder days. This pie will be a labor of love, but if you really want to top off your creation and celebrate your work, be sure to pick up (or make) some French vanilla ice cream. There is nothing better than a pie à la mode!

Cherry Pie

Nothing is better than a warm slice of cherry pie on Pi Day! With a sweet and savory flavor profile, this recipe is super easy to make and sure to be a crowd pleaser. The best part of cherry pies is that you can use fresh or canned cherries, but if you opt for fresh, be prepared for a mess of pitting them.

Don’t have time to make a pie? You can still celebrate today by going out for a pizza pr enjoying a slice from your favorite local bakery.
