Farm Journal’s Best-Ever Pies (1981), was published by Farm Journal, an agricultural magazine. This book includes recipes for fruit pies, cream pies, custard pies, and some savory pies too. This cookbook is praised for reliable pie crust and pie filling recipes that home bakers could count on for simple recipes. Here is an original recipes for cranberry-apple pie, cranberry-blueberry pie and a couple versions of peach pie. I’ve also included my modern take on the Cranberry-Apple Pie.
