💚 Vintage Green Grape Pie (It's Unbelievable!)
|
Green grape pie is a vintage dessert recipe with a similar flavor profile to apple pie, with a crisp texture that remains even after baking! Made with einkorn flour and maple syrup, this grape pie recipe is a classic! When my son was about 5 years old, he asked for a green grape pie. I had never heard of such a thing, but I decided on a simple recipe and got to work. I told my dad about the strange request as the pie was baking, and he started laughing. Apparently, it had been his grandfather's (my son's great-great-grandfather) favorite dessert! After we tried the finished pie, my dad said it tasted just like the one his grandmother had made when he was a kid! Sweetened with maple syrup and surrounded by a flaky crust, this recipe is a winner!
