Every year math lovers celebrate Pi Day on March 14th (3.14) – and food lovers, like myself and many of you, love to celebrate “Pie” Day the best way we know how: by making homemade pies!

A slice of strawberry pie topped with whipped cream sits on a white plate. The pie is filled with fresh strawberries and a glossy red glaze, with more whole strawberries and pie in the background.

If you need an excuse to bake a pie, and don’t want to wait until the holidays (like Easter, Thanksgiving, or Christmas) then Pi Day provides a perfect one!

Let’s face it, the only math we care about around here is how many slices of pie we can fit on our plate!

Onward to the pie day recipes! You’ll find all your favorites here, including an Irish Apple Pie (Make two so you have one for St. Patrick’s Day also), Blueberry Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Pecan Pie, and many more!
