Did you know that August 24th is National Peach Pie Day? Yeah. That's really a thing! Despite being mid-move, I took s few minutes to make a really easy and simple dessert that would be great for this time of year, since, you know, peaches are in season and all!PEACH PIE BITES - THE LEARNER OBSERVERI'd love to say I'm sharing a recipe with you, but this really isn't much of an actual recipe, so let me share the steps I took to make these.Let's start with the ingredients (you can see a full list and instructions int he recipe card at the end of the post):Peach Pie Bites - The Learner ObserverYou'll want to peel and slice some fresh peaches.

I didn't have any ice cream on hand or I would have had some with this, because I'm sure that would make it even MORE delicious!

Ha!Peach Pie Bites - The Learner ObserverHere's the recipe card, as promised:[yumprint-recipe id='6']Have you ever tried a version of peach pie, whether it be the real thing or little bites like this?I'm not much of a baker, let alone of things as complicated as pie (though I did make a pumpkin pie once), but these are even easy enough for me, so I'm positive anyone - and I mean ANYone - can manage to make these. Give it a try!
