I figured that brand new camera + beach ≠ happy camera, so I left it behind (I don't have a case for it yet, and there was an incident with someone else dropping their camera in the sand, making me glad that I left mine at home). It wasn't until I was heading out the door as dawn was breaking that I realized I hadn't gotten any pictures of it - and wouldn't get a nice picture of the interior. I quickly pulled the foil off and snapped just a couple shots before I headed out, thus the poor quality of photos in this post.
Yep, that's a peach and some leftover sourdough at the bottom. Yum, breakfast.The recipe came out well, though it's not one of my favorites out of Dorie's book. Everybody enjoyed it, and it was unanimously agreed upon that the crust was delicious. I plan on making more of this crust whenever I have a pie to bake now - it might have been my favorite part of the pie.

The crust was a hit at my house, too. Did you use fresh berries? That could be why you didn't like it - the fresh blueberries around here have no taste at all.

Beautiful pie, and pie at the beach sounds like a wonderful idea. Why didn't I think of that?
ReplyDeleteThe photos are lovely...but then it would be difficult to take a bad photo of that pie! Good job.
