APDG-National Pie Day!!!

Although much debated, "sonker is a deep-dish pie, juicier than cobbler, and typically served in a rectangular baking dish. It was a dessert large enough to feed a big family or farmhands who’d spent the day working in the fields. It was often baked in a bread pan that fit inside a wood-burning stove". -Andrea Weigl

"In Pennsylvania, the whoopie pie is connected to the large Amish community that settled in the eastern half of the state. Farmers' Almanac says the originals were made from extra batter, and possibly earned their name from the jubilant cry of children who found them packed in their lunch. In the western half of Pennsylvania, whoopie pies are actually called "gobs," a term that's also used by coal miners to refer to coal, which, of course, the whoopie pie resembles. Per the Daily American, the Harris-Boyer Bakery in Johnstown trademarked "gob" in 1927." -Haldan Kirsch

Here is a recipe for sweet Eastern Shore White Potato Pie via Joyce White:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees 3 cups mashed white potatoes 2 tsp. vanilla 2 cups light cream (half & half) 1 tsp. lemon extract 4 eggs 1 tsp. of nutmeg 2 cups sugar ½ tsp. cinnamon Combine potatoes, cream, eggs, and sugar. Beat at a high speed until well blended. Add flavorings and spices. Pour into two 9” prepared pastry shells. Bake 1 hour or until silver knife inserted in center comes out clean.

"Dutch pie is always very deep. It has a wonderful, buttery crumb base – more cake-like than pastry – and the apple slices are flavored with cinnamon, and sultanas are often added too. It’s usual to find it has a lattice topping but sometimes it has a crumb topping, and you’ll often be offered some cream or ice cream to go with it. It’s been eaten for centuries: an early Dutch cookbook, dating from 1514, has a recipe and an apple pie appears in a Dutch painting from 1626." -Travel Gourmet Blogger.

"One of the earliest known published recipes for banana cream pie called for sliced bananas and powdered sugar placed in a pre-baked pie shell, according to Serious Eats. The "Woman's Exchange Cook Book" from 1901 advises cooks to then put the filled pie in the oven for a few minutes and then remove it once the bananas have been softened, according to the South Florida Reporter. After the pie is removed from the oven, the cookbook instructs the cook to cover the filling with whipped cream and to flavor it with lemon juice." -Katherine Beck

"According to historian William Woys Weaver, shoofly pie started as a crustless molasses cake or Centennial Cake. It was baked in 1876 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Shoofly pie was a variation of the treacle tart. Treacle is a generic British term for any syrup made during the refining of sugar cane. Later, refined sugar became more affordable and overtook treacle as a sweetener. However, colonial Americans often substituted molasses for treacle in their recipes. A crust was added to make it easier to enjoy without needing a plate or fork." - Terry
