The Prettiest Easter Pies We’ve Ever Seen

By Patricia Shannon

Top off your Easter spread with an easy and show-stopping pie that highlights the best spring has to offer. Start with a classic—Southern Buttermilk Pie. It’s creamy, cool, and ready for a topping of homemade whipped cream and fresh berries. If you’re looking for a pie that will appeal to your chocolate fans, look no further than our Fudge Pie. It’s gooey, indulgent, and exactly what your chocolate-filled dreams have been craving. Of course, it wouldn’t be spring without strawberries, strawberries, and more strawberries. We have a few options to choose from that feature these fan-favorite berries. Personal-sized options like Mini Strawberry Tarts and Mile-High Mini Strawberry Pies are ideal for smaller gatherings. If you’re serving a crowd, bake up a couple of our Strawberry Cream Pies. Now, of course, we can’t neglect our banana pudding fanatics. Peanut butter fans will love our Peanut Butter-Banana Icebox Pie and our Peanut Butter-Banana Cream Pie that starts with peanut butter cookies—now that sounds delicious.
