If there’s one thing that Australians do well it’s a hearty, mouthwatering pie. Whether it’s dinner or dessert, there is nothing quite like a freshly-baked pie. Keep it classic with steak and kidney or shepherd’s pie. Or maybe try something different with a nachos filling or tuna, cauliflower and cheese. There are even vegetarian recipes like our tasty spinach and ricotta option. And if you’re craving something sweet after dinner tuck into our banoffee or apple pies. There’s nothing better!
