Amish sawdust pie…
By Kevin Williams
This is a recipe that gets requested from time to time. It’s a delicious pie that is often overlooked and underrated among the Amish’s amazing repertoire of wonderful pies.
This pie’s name is thought to be taken from the sawdust-like appearance of the pie, as sawdust is a familiar sight in Amish-owned mills and lumberyards. This is a thick, hearty pie that’s full of coconut. And, believe me, it doesn’t taste like sawdust. Yum!
