5 Unexpected "Tools" Every Pie-Maker Should Own!

You already have a pie plate and a rolling pin but if you want to up your pie-making game this year, here are five essential "tools" (all under $17) you didn't even know you were missing... 

Red Velvet Apple Cupcakes!

Sorry Red Delicious, red velvet apples are the treat to try this fall! Sure, you could make another apple pie. But why? These apple cupcakes are the cutest and they're perfect for a post-orchard party or (you know), like, anything else. No fancy cake decorating skills required...

Apple-Raspberry Pie With Layered Crust

I love the look of a layered top crust on fruit pies—it's super simple to do, just cut out pie dough with cookie cutters and layer it on top of the filling in concentric circles using egg wash as glue. This was one of my favorite flavor combination from Briermere Farms growing up. It's sweet, tart and totally delicious. I hope you enjoy xo
