I have mentioned this in the past: If I were to ever open a bakery (which I am never going to, so this is one of those things that I just say), I’d name it The Cheeky Little Tart. Yup, lots of multiple meanings in that name and I think it is cute. When I was trying to think of a name for this little, rustic, unadorned, plain, simple little apple pie, my brain named it The Naked Little Tart … which of course has even more meaning. 🙂 So whenever I think about it, my brain still thinks about that name, even though I guess I am going to officially call it Rustic Browned Butter Apple Tart. Either way, it is the simplest and yet most delicious pie you’ll have anytime soon. Enjoy.

Insomni-baking, Edition # (insert a random high number): Blueberry Basil Deep Dish Pie. Yup, I made a pie early this morning. Believe it or not, I really just made the pie because I needed to “get rid of” last year’s frozen Maine blueberries. It’s blueberry season again, and I am about to re-fill my freezer with this year’s crop when I realized that I still had 6-7 cups from last year. So I made this pie. And yes, I added basil to a blueberry pie. It gives it a really nice floral note … I don’t think that it is necessarily identifiable as basil, but it is very nice. Yum yum!
