Wild Black Raspberry Pie
“We lived in the country when we were first married. One spring, I found the biggest black raspberries ever seen. So I picked them, cleaned them, and decided to make a pie out of them for a family picnic. On the day of the picnic, we loaded the pie and everything in the car. When we got there, my hubby and my brother-in-law were unloading the car. My brother-in-law looked at the pie and said he didn’t think we should take it out of the car because it really didn’t look very good. Being young I believed him. When we got home they took the pie out and ate the whole thing.” – Linda
Fresh Blueberry Pie
“Fresh blueberry pie is one of my seasonal favorites. Be sure to use fresh blueberries, not frozen. I also use the Pillsbury Refrigerated Pie Crusts to save time.” – Tara
Strawberry Lemon Pie
“We love strawberry lemonade at our house in the summer. But lately, I have been craving lemon pie (my favorite). So while working up some strawberries I thought it might be fun to make a lemon strawberry pie. I guessed my way through this as I have never seen a recipe for this combination. I took the lazy way this time and bought a canned lemon pie filling. We really liked the result and I hope you will too.” – Judy
Champion Cherry Pie
“I made this for the Jefferson County Fair in Boulder, MT this past weekend (8/27/11). It won a Champion ribbon.” – Judi
Fresh Fruit Pie
“Passed down over years, you can use almost any fruits for this pie. Tastes like you’re eating summer. I have used regular pie crust and ready-made, but the cookie crust in the recipe works best.” – Betsy
Grandma’s Fresh Peach Pie
“As a child, I loved Grandma’s pies. I always believe the crust helped add flavor to any pie and Grandma made the best crust ever. If there was leftover dough she would roll it out, put cinnamon and sugar on it, and bake it till it was light brown. What a treat.” – Linda
Easy Banana Cream Pie
“This quick and Easy Banana Cream Pie is ready in minutes. It’s so rich and creamy nobody will believe it isn’t made from scratch.” – Debbie
Strawberries and Cream Pie
“Another way to use those wonderful early summer berries. Try to get medium-sized fresh strawberries of a uniform size. They work the best and they usually taste the best too.” – Penny
Peach Crumble Pie
“Bring on the smiles when you present them with this beautiful peach pie. It is bursting with sweet peaches and a nutty, crunchy topping.” – Laurie
Pineapple Blueberry Chess Pie
“I was looking for something tangy, and I have always loved the texture and simplicity of a chess pie. My husband loves anything pineapple and I have a love of blueberries. This pie is best served chilled and is fantabulicious on a summer day! I’ve added some lemon zest for extra UMPHHH… Hope you like it!” – Bobbie
Blushing Peach Pie
“Mmmmmm, if you like strawberries and peaches – you will love this!!” – Jacklyn
Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

The tart rhubarb goes really well with strawberries and I could not let the summer go by without making at least one thing with them.” – Kevin
