Here's What the Experts are Saying about PIE ACADEMY

"Ken Haedrich has a gift for clearly and patiently explaining the basics, then leading you down a happy trail of variations, new inventions, and delicious departures. A true baker's delight."

Amy Traverso, Yankee magazine food editor and author of The Apple Lover's Cookbook

 

"Roll up your sleeves, roll out the dough, and get baking. You are in good hands with PIE ACADEMY."

Kathy Gunst, coauthor of Rage Baking and resident chef for NPR's Here & Now

From the preface...

"So you love baking pies and are ready to explore a wider world beyond apple, pumpkin, and pecan. Or you want to learn how to bake a pie from scratch and you don't know where to begin. Or you know where to begin and do so with the best of intentions, but your pies keep throwing you curve balls. Your dough cracks and falls apart. It sticks to your counter like superglue. Your pies are too ugly to bring out in public. This and more. I feel your pain. And you've come to the right place because I can help."
