Creative (and Easy-to-Make) Pies to Bring to Your Next Party
None of these tasty desserts are meant to be eaten hot—which means you can easily make them ahead of time. Just pop the crust in the oven until golden, pile in the fillings, chill and enjoy.

The Banana Cream Pie with a Crunchy Surprise Layer
Banana pudding and banana cream pie are both classic comfort foods, but we had no idea how well they went together until we tried this twist from
Magpie: Sweets and Savories from Philadelphia's Favorite Pie Boutique by Holly Ricciardi. The recipe has you spread banana-pudding filling into the pie shell; top it with a layer of Nilla Wafers and banana slices, then cover them with more pudding, so you get a perfect ratio of creamy to crunchy.
