Today kicks off our 12 Days of Homemade Christmas Gifts! These gifts are perfect for the people who have everything, neighbors, friends, coworkers, and teacher’s. During the holidays, everyone enjoys edible gifts but sometimes they are overwhelmed with the amount of cookies they get. What is nice about this gift is that it will keep fresh for up to 3 months, allowing your recipient to enjoy the pie after their sugar coma of Christmas cookies has worn off! Or, if they are like me, they would make it right away to share at their next dinner party!

This gift of Homemade Apple Pie Set is particularly perfect for that person on your list who likes to cook and eat, but doesn’t exactly have the time to make a fresh apple pie. With the filling ready, all they have to do is mix butter and ice water with the pie mix, roll it out, fill and bake it, and bam….Fresh Apple Pie straight from their oven! Courtesy of you!

    What a really good idea. The recipient would even make a cobbler instead, if they were not into making a pie crust.
