Class: The Banana Pete Pie Class
Calling all lovers of The Banana Pete! Join us in learning how to make this fan-favorite pie from start to finish. What is The Banana Pete? We’re glad you asked! During our Indiegogo campaign, we had an extra special "design-a-pie" perk won by Lindsey Dodge. Her creation is inspired by banana pudding and features:
- Roasted banana chess filling (made with bananas we roast in-house!)
- Cinnamon-rye shortbread cookies in place of the class “nilla wafers”
- A fluffy pile of meringue topping, torched to perfection
Lessons include:
- How to make, roll-out, and bake the cinnamon-rye shortbread cookies
- Blind Baking 101: how to prevent the dreaded soggy pie bottom
- Mixing a chess-style filling and assembling a pie
- Pie baking instructions and best-practices
- Pie dough roll-out and crimping lesson
- How to make swiss meringue and topping and torching a pie
- A Q&A session to answer all of your pie (and non-pie) related questions
You’ll leave with:
- The Banana Pete Pie recipe (including All-Butter Pie Dough recipe and roll-out instructions)
- A to-go treat bag
- A frozen pie crimp that you rolled out
- A freshly baked The Banana Pete pie
**If you are traveling from a distance, we recommend bringing a cooler or cold bag in your car to keep your frozen crimp chilled during your trip home**
All classes are held in-person at Sister Pie (8066 Kercheval, Detroit 48214). Free street parking is available on both sides of Kercheval.
