My girls and I love to bake. And we love to be silly too. Because every now and then humor is food for your soul. So for Mother’s Day we shared some silly moments in the kitchen and we tried out Tenderflake’s Easy Pie kits. I mean, really, who doesn’t love pie?

Tenderflake easy pie kits and Tenderflake pie shells take the headache out of baking and help simplify process for children in the kitchen. On occasion we make our own crusts and shells, but I love how these make everything just a bit easier and scrumptious too. There are two different Easy Pie kits: one has crumble topping and the other has a regular double crust topping. All you do is add the fruit or the filling. For our Mother’s Day pie we tried banana cream.

Tonight we get to sample it. Mushy bananas and milk and sugar and maybe some fresh sliced bananas or whipped topping on the top. So good! Plus the mixing and pouring and making pie together is just fun. Tenderflake always tastes good and is affordable too. We love the small tart shells.

My sister has taught my daughter to make pie dough from scratch but I don't think I've ever made dough with her. I'm a "grab the Tenderflake deep dish crust" girl. It would be neat to try a kit, though.

I don't typically make pies because the crusts scare me. I'd love to experiment with the crusts and see what I could do!

Great giveaway and good luck to everyone!

Visiting from SASS.

Although I prefer doing homemade crust, it is just about impossible when you are in a rush so I grab a Tenderflake crust and my son helps me fill it with whatever kind of filling we decide on! Mmmmm :)
