Miracle Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish.
• Place the brown sugar and butter in a mixing bowl, and beat them together with an electric mixer until creamy and very well combined, without lumps. Beat in eggs, one at a time, incorporating the first egg before adding the next one. Add the vanilla extract and salt; beat the flour in, a little at a time, and then the milk, making a creamy batter. Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes; remove pie, and cover the rim with aluminum foil to prevent burning. Return to oven, and bake until the middle sets and the top forms a crusty layer, about 15 more minutes. Let the pie cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder and sugar.
• Place 1/2 cup of flour mixture in a small bowl, and stir in water until smooth.
• Cut shortening into remaining flour mixture until it looks like coarse meal. Blend in the flour-water mixture.
• Wrap dough and chill in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Blend all the ingredients until well mixed.
• Pour into a 10" greased pie plate.
• Bake at 350°F for 1 hour or until centre feels firm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Literally throw all ingredients into the blender.
• Use the "mix" cycle.
• As it is all mixing, lightly butter and flour coat a pie pan.
• Pour mixture into the pan and bake for 40 -45 minutes.

Steps:

• In blender, combine milk, eggs, honey, flour, butter, vanilla, salt. Blend 10 seconds.
• Stir in coconut.
• Pour into greased pie plate.
• Bake in 350 oven 40 minutes or until knife comes out clean when inserted in the middle.
• Serve hot or chilled.

Steps:

• Place a medium mixing bowl in the freezer to chill.
• Place the flour, salt and baking powder in a reclosable gallon-size freezer bag, and whisk them together.
• Using a melon baller, scoop 1/2-1 inch balls of the lard directly into the flour, shaking the bag occasinally to distribute and cover them with the flour.
• If the room is warm and the lard starts getting very soft, place the bag in the freezer for about 10 minutes before proceeding.
• It is is still firm but squishable once it's all been added, using a rolling pin, roll together the lard and flour until the lard is in thin flakes.
• Place the bag in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
• Empty the flour mixture into the cold bowl, scraping the sides of the bag to release all of it.
• Set the bag aside.
• Sprinkle on the ice water and vinegar, tossing gently with a rubber spatula to incorporate it evenly.
• Spoon the mixture back into the plastic bag (if using caul fat, which is softer, the dough will already hold together, so it's easier to empty it out onto a piece of plastic wrap and knead it lightly from the outside of the wrap).
• Holding both ends of the bag opening with your fingers, knead the mixture by alternately pressing it, from the outside of the bag, with the knuckles and heels of your hands until the mixture holds together in one piece and feels slightly stretchy when pulled.
• Sprinkle the dough on both sides with a little whole wheat flour, wrap it with plastic wrap, flatten into a disc, and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes, preferably overnight.
• STORES refrigerated up to 3 days; frozen, up to 3 months.
• NOTE: When rolling the dough, roll it directly on the counter or on plastic wrap.
• Sprinkle both sides of the dough and the counter or plastic wrap amply with whole wheat flour as needed to keep it from sticking.
• (The whole wheat flour will not toughen it and will give it extra crunch and a lovely, wheaty flavor.) POINTERS FOR SUCCESS: Pay particular attention to temperature, keeping the lard well-chilled.
• When mixing the lard flakes/flour mixture with the liquid, stir gently so as to maintain large flakes of lard.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients and pour into a greased and floured 9" x 13" pan. Sprinkle top with 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon.
• Bake at 350 F for 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Put all ingredients into a blender. Blend well at low speed.
• Pour into a 10" buttered pie pan.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes.
• A crust will form on the bottom, a filling in the middle and the coconut will rise to the top.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine lemon juice, pecans, cherries, condensed milk, and pineapple. Mix well, then gently fold in whipped topping until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
• Pour mixture into pie shells. Chill before serving. Garnish with chopped cherries and pecans if desired.
