Summer Pie Flavors
Summer fruits like peaches, berries, and cherries are popular during this season, making them the perfect ingredients for any pie recipe.
There are several popular pies to make with fresh fruit during the summer season. One of my favorite pies to bake, and enjoy, during the summer is blueberry pie.
Peach pie or Peach Walnut Pie are two other popular recipes made with ripe, sweet peaches for a summery twist on a classic dessert. If you like a tart flavor, you'll enjoy a cherry pie!
And for something a little different, you could try a mixed berry pie with a combination of different berries.

Pie Recipe FAQ's
Can you make a fruit pie the day before?
Yes, you can make a fruit pie the day before serving it. However, you need to make sure that you store it properly. Once the pie has cooled down to room temperature, cover it tightly with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator. You can use a plastic storage container specifically made for pies.
How do I make my fruit pie not runny?
One way is to make a thickener such as cornstarch or flour to add to your pie filling which will help to absorb excess moisture and thicken the juices. Make sure that your pie has enough ventilation by cutting slits in the top crust, which will allow steam to escape and prevent the filling from becoming too runny.
