The Not-pie

Hello World!

Last weekend, I had friends over at my Cozy Kitchen, and we made Apple & Peach Not-Pie. At first, we wanted to bake a cake (either from a box or from scratch). We were inspired by this contradictory confection:



I mean, what exactly is this? Clearly, it's a gorgeous, probably delicious Disney princess cake of Belle, but it says Jasmine or Yasmine underneath? Whaaa? Who did this??

This brought to my mind some of the more troubling Disney songs from over the years...

Enough Disney song mockery. Here, I'm pre-cooking the green apple and peaches filling. Just add butter!

Look... the not-pie glows while it cooks in the oven.

Oh, wow! So pretty and nice! It didn't taste exactly like pie though. There was no cinnamon in it and the peaches were still crunchy, so it served for a nice peach and apple cobbler. Not-pie. Don't you like the intricate lattice-work top crust? We ate it all, with ice cream and whipped cream. Yummyyy humble eats!
