Join local pastry chef Keri Cossette to celebrate Pi Day! In this all day class you will learn three different types of pies crusts AND three different types of pie fillings: Traditional Apple Pie, Tropical Fruit Cream Pie and Caribbean Spiced Beef Hand Pies.
Keri will teach you how to make her easy all purpose flaky pie dough, coconut shortbread cookie dough, & a curry/tumeric infused pie dough for the hand pies. While the doughs are chilling, Keri will teach you how to make all your fillings for your 3 pies. You'll start by making your apple pie filling so it has time to macerate and become delicious. Then Keri will show you how to make Pabana puree (a tasty blend of passion fruit, mango & banana) to then be used two ways in your tropical fruit cream pie as a custard & sauce! After your custard is made and cooled in the fridge you'll make the last filling a delicious savory spiced beef filling. You will have the opportunity to make it as spicy as you would like using scotch bonnet peppers. Keri will then teach you all her tricks and tips for rolling out the perfect pie crust while you assemble your apple pie to be baked. While the apple pie is baking in the oven you'll start working on finishing up the cream pie by learning how to make the perfect cookie crust (using the yummy coconut shortbread cookie dough you made earlier) Keri will show you how to fill and finish this tropical getaway in pie form. Last but not least, on our Epic Pi Day celebration Keri will show you how to roll/cut and fill the Caribbean Spiced Beef Hand Pies, You'll have the option to bake off some in class and freeze some to take home as they make a great easy meal during the week.

(Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself!)
We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging.
