A single-crust pie of stewed apples in a custard fragrant with nutmeg, citrus, and sherry, Marlborough pie originated in England as a custard pudding and crossed the Atlantic with early English settlers. It has since embraced its Americanness as another take on the beloved national dessert: apple pie.

The practice of putting apples in a custard and baking in a pastry base is at least as old as 1660. An Eater article cites Amy Traverso’s The Apple Lover’s Cookbook, which traces the first iteration of Marlborough pudding to a recipe in The Accomplisht Cook, an English cookbook published that year.

I made acorn cream pie four times this year. It tastes to me like hazelnut, pecan, and almond all at once. It is very tasty.

As many were kind enough to ask, here's the cross-section of the pie I baked yesterday.

Chicken pot pie - So the crust is messed up because I bought a 1970 cutter that I thought was cool. My problem is the chicken. How do I make the art better? I also made another one and I made an adorable bunch of balloons art on it but it was also iffy. That pie was immediately eaten , hence no pic
