About me: I am a freelance food writer, recipe developer and photographer. Food is my passion - baking, cooking, developing recipes, making recipes healthier, using fresh seasonal produce and local products, keeping a check on my carbon footprint and being a responsible foodie! I enjoy food styling, food photography, recipe development and product reviews. I express this through my food photographs which I style and the recipes I blog. My strength lies in 'Doing Food From Scratch'; it must taste as good as it looks, and be healthy too. Baking in India, often my biggest challenge is the non-availability of baking ingredients, and this has now become a platform to get creative on. I enjoy cooking immensely as well.

    I love that there is so much filling in the pie, you can just see how yummy it is.
    I have never made a pie.

    U had me drooling right in front of my screen. If only I can lick it off my screen. lol! In my household, we just the creme pâtissère right out of the bowl. :p

    I really love pies! They are so scrumptious and there are so many different recipes to choose from…

    Both look fantastic! i'll have a slice of both, please.

    Cheers,

    I wish Pumpkin Pie was a done thing here in Australia – because that pie looks divine! And the second pie with strawberry and chocolate – drooool!

    Beautiful post as usual deeba 🙂 I am only recently a pumpkin appreciator. The only thing I had ever tried was traditional pumpkin pie and it never really did anything for me. About a year ago I started trying different recipes for muffins, cake and cookies with pumpkin and now i'm sold. My daughter has been harping on me about pumpkin pie, i need to get one made. These look fabulous!

  • shaz

    Both pies look so good Deeba, can't decide which to try. And mac attack mach 2 sounds like fun! (I think I'm obsessed now after the DB challenge 🙂

    Your blog is a feast for the eyes! Our family is thrilled that autumn is full of pumpkin recipes, and we're always happy to try another. But it's the second pie, the one with Crème Pâtissière, that has really captured my imagination. If I wasn't committed to a carrot cake for my daughter's birthday this weekend, I'd be making that one!

  • Megan

    Oh dear, now I want pie! They look amazing. I better call the SIL and tell her I want to make the pies for Thanksgiving!
    Question on the macs. Does the weather affect the outcome of Macs? I know you shouldn't make meringue on humid days and I just wondered if that would be true with Macs. Love the new kitchen!

  • lisaiscooking

    Both version of pumpkin and the Crème Pâtissière pie sound wonderful! I'd like to try a slice of each, please.

  • Steph

    Your pie looks so good that I would eat it (and I can't stand pumpkin pie). Excellent photos!

  • Julie @ Willow Bird Baking

    Gorgeous pies!! I'm having a love affair with pie lately too, and pie CRUST in particular! Mmm. Planning a coconut cream and chocolate pie for Thanksgiving 🙂

  • Gera @ SweetsFoods

    Love both pies Deeba!

    All the best!

    I came to check out your blog but arrived in pie heaven instead! They look so perfect and delicious!!! I'd take a piece (a big one) of each!

  • foodie ffanatic

    I LOVE pie! I'm going to check out your Praline Pumpkin Pie, too. I just adore your blog.

    One complaint, though, if I may…
    Now I can't get the song "It's Raining Men" out of my head!!!

  • Gloria

  • Natashya KitchenPuppies

    Such a beautiful and generous pie! I want to use it as a pillow and have sweet dreams.

  • WizzyTheStick

    Not a big fan of pumpkin in desserts. Funny tho how your gorgeous pics will always make me think about eating – even stuff I don't like as in this pumpkin pie:-)

  • Arwen from Hoglet K

    Sounds like a pie party! The praline version of the pumpkin does sound yummier, but I like the idea of eating it warm too.

  • The Cooking Photographer

    Wow. Your pies always look so beautiful. I didn't know pumpkin anything could look this pretty.

  • Jamie

    Great pie! I love it and this one I could do! Great pia-athon you have going here! Keep it coming, dahling!

  • Nicisme

    I've never made a pumpkin pie! I do keep drooling over them though, especially that piece that has the icing on.

Thank you so much for stopping by. I'd love to hear from you.
