Labor Day Dessert!


I hope everyone had a relaxing and fun Labor Day weekend!  I had just picked up some fresh peaches, raspberries and blueberries so I decided to make a favorite deep dish rustic pie of mine with all three fruits for after the bar b que.  This was one loaded pie 4 large peaches a cup each of raspberries and blueberries, this combination of fruits makes the most delicious pie.  Not overly sweet and a half butter half crisco very tender crust.  My husband ate 2 large slices.  His comment was 'Ohhh the flavor'.

Thank you, Larry!  It's a wonderful combination, next time I will add the extra peach and a little less blueberry...no spices were used or needed.  Mike usually goes for seconds...but then it was followed by a root beer float!!  He's a cyclist and burns up the carbs.  I wish I could say the same : (
