Just in time for all your holiday baking, we’re launching a new Radio Cherry Bombe miniseries—She’s My Cherry Pie! Today and the next five Saturdays, host Jessie Sheehan will learn how some of the most beloved bakers around got their start, what they’re known for, and the tips and tricks behind their signature bakes. 

For our first episode, Radio Cherry Bombe host Kerry Diamond welcomes Jessie and learns more about the career twists and turns that led Jessie to baking, cookbook writing, and recipe testing. They also chat about her third and latest cookbook, Snackable Bakes: 100 Easy-Peasy Recipes For Exceptionally Scrumptious Sweets and Treats

Then, Jessie welcomes She’s My Cherry Pie’s first guest, Lisa Ludwinski of the celebrated Sister Pie bakery in Detroit and they go deep on pie dough and pie crusts. From pastry cutters to probe thermometers to sugar, Lisa shares the secrets to her fab, flaky crust. You can find Lisa’s recipe here.
