Coconut custard pie, at any temp. is my alltime favorite. Multi-berry pies with a streusel top, served warm(with vanilla ice cream) is my current preference. Of course key lime pie is also high on the list. I'm afraid ,if I don't stop now, I will name every pie there is!

A very lemony Chess Pie is my all time favorite... cold the next day is best.

Key Lime Pie and Banana Cream pie round out my top 3 I think.

I lived in South Miami for fourteen years and had a yard filled with tropical fruit trees; my favorites of which were the Key Limes.
So I quickly learned to make Key Lime pie (it's "easy as pie" with the right ingredients...especially limes right off the tree).
So my vote goes to Key Lime pie. Although I like my own the best I rarely meet one I don't like. Great stuff.

Rhubarb and pecan - but the pecan MUST be made with chopped pecans and sugarcane syrup instead of Karo.

Both are to be served at room temp with no more accompaniment than a fork.

Ricotta pie (with 1 pkg of cream cheese added) drop of orange oil and sweet pastry crust. Some chopped bittersweet chocolate.

Glad you asked. I just learned how to bake pies last year and really enjoy my own rather than anything bought. Here are some of my pies. The best crust I've found is at Elise's Simply Recipes. I use her all-butter crust with almonds, and substitute agave nectar for brown sugar. It's wonderful, as her recipes tend to be.

The best combination of fruit I've tried was blueberry nectarine. That was such a huge success, people ate it for breakfast.

JerzeeTomato - I am intrigued by this ricotta pie. Is it a bit like a cheese cake? Could you give us some more information.

am i the only person that doesn't like pie?

I love pie! I work for a gentleman who makes fantastic pies- so far my two favorites are his Tollhouse cookie pie (sans baking powder, everything is the same as the cookie) and red raspberry cream. The cream filling is TO DIE FOR...I made it once but was told I had to forget the recipe. So I did 'cause I respect him and would like to keep the job. :)

I like both somewhat chilled but not cold.

I dislike rhubarb, peach and citrus pies. Everything else is fair game!

I don't love pie either, forrester... not huge on sweets, and never have been thrilled with the crust. However, I live with a pie fanatic, so I do bake them fairly regularly. Oh, and I need to a add this to the ashamed thread -- I use frozen crust because in thirty years of trying, I never have mastered pie crust ::blush::

When I do eat pie, I like pumpkin (my own is the best). Actually, I like custard pies in general -- banana cream and key lime (this should NEVER be made with meringue) rate highly.

I was somewhere recently where a piece of lemon meringue was forced on me. The meringue had started to fall apart and there was what seemed to be water between the lemon and the meringue. Yuck.

I like the idea of pies- used to love, love, love apples pies- but haven't been able to find a crust that does't get soggy or fall apart on me. I now make apple crisp with blueberries. I serve it warm with soy vanilla ice cream. So good, it almost makes me forget it's soy ice cream.
