I think I want to bake a pie mother's day for MIL and I.
What's your favorite pie that's not atypical such as Apple, cobbler, etc? Do you have a recipe? Bonus points if it's not overly sweet.

Chocolate chip cookie pie is awesome! If you're interested, I'll wall you the link since its on my blog.
ETA: but I lose points in the sweet department.

Pecan pie and pumpkin pie, Thanksgiving is my 2nd favorite holiday because of the good food! (Christmas is my favorite holiday)

@Kimberlybee: you just reminded me I absolutely love sweet potato Pecan pie but have never attempted one myself. Might be kinda weird in May but definitely a contender.

Key lime is my absolute favorite dessert ever. My mom is from the keys, and she insists it must have a meringue top.

@BananaPancakes: interesting, I have never had it with a meringue even when I had it in the Florida keys!

My favorite is strawberry rhubarb. I've never been brave enough to try to make one though so no recipes to share unfortunately!

@locavore_mama: That sounds like a great combination! I have never really tried baking a pie. You sound like a domestic diva, wish we were neighbors! Hahaha

@As Time Goes By: It's fairly common to use whipped cream, especially now, but I guess growing up in Key largo in the 60-70's it must have been more common to use meringue. I've been chewed out by my grandmother for even mentioning whipped cream. Like really chewed out. She's got opinions.

@Kimberlybee: LOL thanks! Baking can be fun and relaxing!

@locavore_mama: I fully agree with @BananaPancakes: even if we disagree on the meringue!

I know you've already decided, but I'll put in my 2 cents anyway...
Key lime! (I vote no meringue)
Or fresh strawberry, where it has a cream cheese layer, then fresh strawberries on top, maybe with a little jam glaze, but not cooked.
I love mince pie too, but it's definitely more of a fall/winter thing.
And peach pie, with or without blackberries, mmm.

I love all fruit pies (peach, rhubarb, marionberry, blackberry, apple..) but I have a soft spot for lemon meringue. I want pie!

Pumpkin is my favorite, but that's seasonal. For spring/summer pies I like strawberry pies, grasshopper pies, and pies like lemon merengue, chocolate chiffon, etc.
I'm not big on all the other berry pies.

Peanut butter pie! My mom makes one from scratch that is heavenly, but this is a quickie version I've done in the past: http://www.tastesoflizzyt.com/2014/02/26/peanut-butter-pudding-pie/
I usually add more powdered sugar to the peanut butter/powdered sugar mixture. It's also fantastic with Nutella instead of peanut butter!
