Yesterday I felt the need for comfort food. I took out a bag of frozen apples and a bag of frozen pears, but the pear bag was bigger than the apple bag, so rather than have one pie too big and the other too skimpy, I combined the fruit and made pearapple pies.
While I had a messy kitchen and a hot oven, I thought I might as well make some almond pie squares using half the sugar and adding a cup of coconut.

Sounds like the perfect [..pearing ..]… pairing of fruits for pies or cobblers.
Happy Gardening

Oh, these look so good! So funny about the combining. Yesterday, my friend made a pie using three fruits because she didn’t have enough of one to make a pie! It was blueberry-blackberry-apple. Haha. I would prefer the almond bars, if I am choosing. 🙂

Yummy looking. Maybe I can persuade Mary to do a pie. Or I may go for apple pancakes. Those I do myself.

Bread is good. I can’t remember when I didn’t bake it at home. Can’t imagine buying it. It’s great to hear that you’re getting the benefit of home baked goodies. Leftovers? Only if you hurry over.

I only used half the sugar in the almond bars and it was plenty sweet enough. It calls for two cups and I used only one. There is also icing sugar and corn syrup in it, so PLENTY of sugar altogether. But it sure is tasty. It disappears very fast. I hope you try it, Pauline, and that you get good results.
