Peachy rye mini hand pies
Pies
I tend to follow the rules and don't deviate much in life. When I saw the opportunity to "off road" Amanda Hesser's Peach Tart, I thought it was a great way to take a step out of my comfort zone. The first thing that came to mind was swapping some Rye flour for the AP flour....thanks to Diana Henry, I have learned that Rye is for so much more than just bread. I didn't have the oil called for in the recipe so I swapped all butter. Living in Ohio does not afford me access to fresh, perfectly juicy peaches, so I reached for the can (not frozen, as frozen peaches tend to have an off flavor to me.) I added raspberries for a little burst of color. The last swap, creating mini hand pies, was for two reasons: 1) I don't own a tart pan and 2) my kids love mini pies....makes it easier for them to grab one and go about their day. Seeing the big smile on my daughter's face as she ate these, well, that's all the encouragement I need to maybe "off road" a little more often.
