Welcome to Art of the Pie
I'm so glad you found me! I love making pie and more than that, I love teaching pie making. At Art of the Pie® I want to show you that making pie is easier than you think and as American as...well, Apple Pie, Cherry Pie, Peach Pie, Chicken Pot Pie and more!
Where to start? If you are a well-seasoned pie maker or missed learning this time-honored craft when you were young, you will find some pie making tips and hints in my blog.
Then check out some recipes, or learn about the Virtual Art of the Pie® Workshops that thousands have attended and Pie Camp® that has been featured in many publications and now is held virtually so you can bake along with me right in your own kitchen using your own equipment and oven. What could be easier than that!
I truly have been baking just about all my life and I'm so excited to share with you my knowledge, recipes and skills.
While you're here, enjoy some pie history and trivia, too.
There’s usually a pie on the kitchen counter at Pie Cottage so, come on in, pull up a chair, sit a spell, and of course, enjoy a piece of pie!
I hope you will join me!
Be Happy, Make Pie!
Kate McDermott, Pie Maker
