Receta Mini Peach and Apple Pies
Mini Peach and Apple Pies
Home organization is a big priority for me right now. I’ve watched a cazillion videos on Youtube and will share the link for one of the most incredible craft rooms ever. I’m also working up the nerve to show you where I store all of my “stuff”.
Saturday was clean out the pantry day and I came across a couple cans of peaches. The Mr. used to eat them regularly but not anymore. I had also been to my son’s home earlier in the week and grabbed a few apples from his trees and wanted to use them. There wasn’t enough of either of these fruits to make a large pie so I made minis using my mini tart pans. I also used premade pie dough that was languishing in the freezer.
Each pie was the perfect single serving and you know I was contemplating how these would look on a dessert buffet. I ended up with 10 little pies and once again Charisse’s coworkers were happy campers.

When my craft room/are grows up this is what I want it to look like the one in the video. Nikki has some fabulous videos online and her website if full of tips to make running a household super easy. Check out this link for the organization video I was telling you about. I drooled over this like I do over desserts.
