Pies, Cheesecake, and French Onion Soup Recap (Oh, My)

In one fell swoop, here's a last recap of all the pies (and other food-related items) I shared on Instagram (@jujulabean).  I'll give a little peek, and promise to do better in 2016...that's a resolution I'm going to keep!

I made 9 pies in one night (the peach sour cream was still in the oven) for a local cafe bake in August.

Cherry Almond

Triple Berry Crunch with Grand Marnier

Banana Cream Pie with Bittersweet Chocolate and Crystallized Ginger

Banana Cream Pie with Toasted Coconut 

(the camera made the coconut look a little orange here)

 Is 5 lbs. of apples too much?  The beginning...

The end...Double Apple Pie with Cornmeal Crust and Bourbon Caramel Sauce

Vanilla Bean Upside-Down Peach Cobbler with Cream

Salted Caramel Toffee Pumpkin Cheesecake
