Club: Baked- Sawdust Pie






Sawdust Pie was the chosen recipe for Club: Baked this time around.  I found it to be very similar in taste to Pecan Pie but also included graham cracker crumbs, shredded coconut and white chocolate in the ingredients.  I was glad that I was able to mix everything in only one bowl then spread it over the yummy, buttery pie crust.  The suggested serving included sliced bananas, (which I omitted) and freshly made whipped cream.  I didn't initially make the whipped cream but decided to the following day, and was glad I did.  I thought that the whipped cream really brought the flavors of the pie together.  I've read the recipes in the Baked cookbook numerous times over and never did Sawdust Pie seem appealing to me….I guess it's just the name, sawdust...haha.  I'm glad the recipe was chosen though, I definitely think it was a great fall pie and would  be pretty good on the Thanksgiving table too!  Tessa of the Cookin Chemist chose our recipe this time so be sure to check out her blog for the recipe and the Club: Baked blog for all of the other delicious posts!  Enjoy!

  1. I thought the same thing...Sawdust doesn't really sound too appetizing. But it was delicious and I agree that it would be great for Thanksgiving. Glad you liked it, too. Yours looks so moist :)

  2. I love the way your pie looks. The light color. I added chocolate. It tastes great, but your color is prettier. You are right. Thanksgiving and this pie seem to go together.
