Store bought ready to-go pies can be a life saver! In fact, Price Chopper will be carrying a variety this holiday season to make dessertas easy as pie. However, sometimes adding a bit of flair or color can make your desserts stand out from amongst the rest.
If you want to wow your guests and are short on time, this brief 5 minute how-to will allow you to add a festive spark!
Not a fan of the above? Here are a few suggestions for substitutions: blueberries, cherries — peaches, plums, apples, pears and apricots will do as well!What you need:
What to do:
- For small fruit (berries and cherries) simply cut in half then place in separate bowls.
- For large fruit (peaches, plums, apples, pears and apricots) cut into thin slices then place in separate bowls.
- Now for the fun part— arrange fruit in a pattern around crust, starting with one fruit then moving to another. Repeat pattern until the entire pie crust is covered.
- Allow to chill so that fruit juices will firm.
If you want to add another festive layer to your dessert, arrange one fruit in the middle, either in a pattern or organic way.
