Whenever we need a recipe that we know will end up tasting great, we turn to Martha Stewart. That’s especially true when we’re looking for dessert recipes. After all, she’s literally written the book on cookies. And cakes. And did we mention pie?
Stewart has hundreds of pie recipes that she’s developed over the years, but we did some digging to find those that are the very best. From fresh fruit pies and tarts to decadent chocolate creations, from lattice-topped pies to those adorned with mountains of meringue, these Martha Stewart pie recipes are all worth a try.
Two Berry Tart
What do you make when you can’t decide between the abundance of summer berries at your disposal when they’re in season? A two-berry tart, of course, that’s the perfect way to give ripe strawberries and raspberries the spotlight they deserve.

Five-Spice Pumpkin Pie with Phyllo Crust
Tired of boring old pumpkin pie? Well, Stewart knows how to jazz up even the most classic recipes. Here, she adds Chinese five-spice powder to her pumpkin pie filling, and swaps the traditional pastry crust for phyllo dough.

Best Coconut Cream Pie
Stewart calls this her “best coconut cream pie,” and we believe it. The creamy coconut pudding filling is delicious enough to eat on its own, but it’s even better when topped with a mound of whipped cream and toasted coconut flakes.

Peach Lattice Pie
Juicy ripe peaches. Vanilla bean. Flaky, all butter pie crust. It’s the taste of summer in a pie, with an easier-than-you’d-think lattice top to boot.

Rhubarb Pie
You’ve probably had strawberry rhubarb pie, but what about straight-up rhubarb pie with a crumble topping? Some people even call rhubarb “pie plant,” so you know this dessert will be good. And word to the wise — apparently, it’s even better the day after you make it.

German Chocolate Pie
Not everyone likes cooked fruit desserts. That’s why it’s important to ocassionally veer away from berries and peaches, and toward the world of chocolate, coconut, and plenty of whipped cream, like in Martha’s German chocolate pie.

Martha’s Sour Cherry Pie
Sour cherry pie is a total classic. Sour cherries are indeed a little too tart to eat on their own, but use your handy cherry pitter, toss ’em with sugar and some other basic ingredients, and they become the perfect filling for a sweet-tart pie.
