Fresh Fig Pie

I baked a fresh fig pie. I feel all cozy now. Wait. What? It’s 100F right now and I’m baking a pie?

Well, hey, even though it’s still hot out here where I live. I can feel fall is right around the corner. The mornings are cooler now. Pumpkin spice is on its way....

So, yeah, I baked a pie. There was just way too many figs so I had to do something with them. Other than eat them alone. This year the fig tree yielded a crazy amount of figs. Or wait does this happen every year? Am I having a deja vu? I think I say this every year...

Anyway!

My pie came out quite rustic. Let’s not pretend to not notice. I had some pie crust issues. I’m not sure why. I use the same recipe all the time and it’s usually problem free. Oh well, it tastes good.

If you’re confused about fig pie well so was I. But I found this recipe on Pinterest and said, “I’m baking pie!”. I was craving pie so, of course. I just saw it and there was no second thinking, which is unusual. What I loved was that the recipe asks for two pounds of figs so it uses up A LOT of figs, which is just what I needed. There were figs in the counter and in the fridge, and some were getting too ripe. They were calling out desperately to be turned into a pie. Or wait, was that my voice? 

Delicious pie, indeed. Almost tastes like a fig newton cookie but so much better. The figs cooked so perfectly inside the crust. Umm yummm? You gotta try this recipe out! Try it a la mode with vanilla ice cream!! Try it warm. Try it for breakfast. Ok I’m gonna stop typing now.
