They both look good

I did my baking yesterday evening. I made a gooseberry pie and half of a peach pie. The peach pie did not make it through the evening.

I do not seem to have a crust recipe I REALLY LIKE.
Too much shortening. This pie looks SUPER. Thanks for sharing. Aria

Just out of oven My usual Sourdough Honey Oat.
OUR FAVORITE. I think next bake will use smaller tins or just make two loaves? I prefer well rounded
loaves. Aria

Did you ever try the Rich Pastry recipe? I always got compliments on my crusts whenever I used it.

Rich Pastry
Taken from Farm Journal's Country Cookbook

2 1/4 cups sifted flour
1 tsp. salt
1tbsp. sugar
3/4 cup vegetable shortening
1 egg yolk
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1/4 cup milk

Sift flour with salt and sugar. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles fine crumbles.

Beat together egg yolk and lemon juice. Blend in milk. Add to dry ingredients, tossing with fork into a soft dough.

Divide dough in half. Form each into ball. Flatten each on lightly floured surface. Roll to about 1/8" thickness. Use half for bottom crust and half for top crust.

Once the dough is divided and flattened, I put it in plastic bags and place in the refrigerator while I am preparing the filling

R2elk, THANKS so much. This is a keeper. Aria

You only saw it in your mind. Your dirty mind

Wash your head with soap and water, naughty.

I'd have nightmares

Morning Bakers not baking in the heat wave barely want to cook

Wise decision, your home will heat up big time.
