In this hands-on class, we'll bake a pie from start to finish with in-season fruit (apples, in this case). All your pie questions will be answered: What is the best fat to use for a crust? How do I stop my filling from being oozey? How do I make that cool crinkly edge? And so much more as we talk technique!
Each participant will make their own mini galette to take home and bake, as well as get to enjoy a slice of pie in class.
