Introduction

“Good apple pies are a considerable part of our domestic happiness.” – Jane Austen

Truer words haven’t been spoken.

In simple words, a pie is a dish that contains a crust with a filling, which is often topped with a crust or some more toppings.

Pies can be either sweet or savory. They can be filled crust or free form. But, there are pies, tarts, cobblers, flans, turn overs, galletes... what is the difference between all of them?

In this eBook we would like to explain to you the difference between all the pies, tarts and their cousins, and provide you with the recipes for the same.

We thank you for downloading this eBook, and we hope the content of this eBook is helpful to you.

Pies, Tarts And All Their Hybrid Versions

A pie is a dish that has been baked. It has minimum two components – the pie crust, made using dough and the filling.

The dough forms the crust of the dish, which is known as the pastry shell, and this crust holds the filling in. The crust gives the dish a crunchy exterior, while the filling gives it a moist and soft interior.

So what is the difference between a pie and a tart? And what in the name of God is a Croustade? Don’t worry; we will explain it all to you!

Pie

Like we previously explained, a pie has two components – the crust and the filling. A pie with two crusts is known as a double crust, and a pie with just the bottom crust is known as a single crust pie. The pie can be sweet or savory; filled with fruit, cream, vegetables or meat.

Deep Dish Pie

This is a single crust pie, made in a pan with higher sides. This dish can be made in a casserole or in a deep dish with a crust on the top. This pie has no bottom, just a crimped top.

Tart

A tart is pretty similar to a pie, which is why people are often confused when it comes to differentiating between a pie and a tart.  A tart also consists of a crust filled with filling; the only difference being that the crust is thinner and they are not as deep as the traditional pies.

Flan

A flan is an open pastry containing savory or sweet filling. The flan is usually round and consists of a shortcrust pastry. A flan is usually confused with caramel custard.

Free Form Tart Or Pie Or “Galette”

We usually think a pie has a steady crust that makes the “vessel” for the filling. In a “galette” the dough is spread out in the middle of a flat baking dish, covered with filling and the corners are folded around it; and then the dish is baked.

Croustade

This term is used to define any sort of crust – hollow roll, empty pastry shell or a bread crust. These can be pre-made and filled with a sweet or savory filling of your choice.

Turnover

These are individual pies. The shapes are cut out from rolled out dough, filled with a sweet or savory filling and the edges are folded over. The edges are crimped over and baked.
