I met Elizabeth Poett in Waco, TX after we both started filming our shows for The Magnolia Network. Elizabeth is the rare combination of movie star glamour and a down-to-earth rancher. Those things seem an impossible mix and yet, Elizabeth pulls it off with rugged elegance. She has a passion for her traditions, her land, and her family, which makes her so relatable.
[GIVEAWAY! Scroll to the bottom to find out how you can win a copy of Elizabeth Poett’s new cookbook!]
Her new cookbook tells the story of her picture book ranch, filled with cattle, honey bees, lavender fields, and views one could never get tired of. Most importantly it is where her family has lived for seven generations.
I am decidedly a city dweller but I am so captivated and curious about her bucolic world. If you’ve seen her show, Ranch to Table, you’ve probably felt the same pull to ranch life. You can get her recipes and stories in her new book, The Ranch Table, which includes this family-favorite peanut butter meringue pie. Be sure to check out Elizabeth’s show! Season 4 just launched on Magnolia Network.

My favorite pie is a Jingle Berry Pie .. raspberries,blackberries, blueberries and strawberry. It is delicious and so pretty at Christmas.
My most favorite pie is A Homemade Cherry Pie
My favorite pie is Chocolate pudding pie and my favorite peanut butter dessert is a peanut butter bar our local school makes.
Your chocolate peanut butter pie and perfect peach pies! I could never make a pie until I discovered you!!
I love pumpkin pie, gives me all the warm fuzzies!
This recipe looks delicious and reminds me of the peanut butter buckeyes my mom makes every Christmas! For a favorite pie, I’d go with a coconut cream pie with chocolate cookie crust. I also love a fresh strawberry rhubarb pie in the summer.
I adore the simplicity of a crisp peanut butter cookie…but if we are talking pies, I have to go with boysenberry pie from the coastal town of Florence Oregon. Best ever!!!
I grew up a few miles from her ranch! Wonderful to see her success! My favorite pie is banana, although I rarely eat it because no one in the family likes it but me!
My favorite pie has to be the classic pumpkin pie which my mom made every thanksgiving. As for my favorite peanut butter cookie also has to be the Peanut Butter Cookie with Reese butter candy in the center which I only make at Christmas. Needless to say they are the first cookie to disappear.
Chocolate cream pie
This pie would be a great complement to any meal!
It is so hard to pick just one, but if I had to choose, I would go with French Silk pie. Oh, and my mom’s pecan pie.
Hi Zoë, I love Chess pie…a decidedly Southern dessert. But I’ve also had some delicious peanut butter pie, so would love to win this beautiful cookbook.
Thanks!
Fresh Blueberry pie is my favorite- with lots of freshly whipped cream on top! It’s wonderful because it has thickened (&sweetened blueberries) mixed with fresh blueberries- so refreshing and delicious!
Oh just thinking about it! My favorite pie has to be my great Aunt Hazel’s chocolate pie with meringue piled high on top and toasted to perfection. The flaky crust with the delicious chocolate filling all together is just a warm memory in my heart and my tummy. This is such a family favorite that it gets requested for instead of a birthday cake this pie…so a birthday pie! Peanut butter, ummm, yes please. I am a peanut butter lover even on a spoon!
Love making a rhubarb pie in the early days of summer!
The first peanut butter pie recipe I made is still my favorite, and it was the one you posted in honor of Mikey. You introduced me to Jennie and her blog with that post as well, and I made that pie all the time- including during a prolonged time we spent on an island in Belize in a time when a variety of fresh dairy products were hard to find. I scoured the island for all of the ingredients and friends fell in love with the pie. One friend requested I make it for his wedding 🙂
Actually, I think this might be my new favorite!
I LOVE pecan pie! I used to really not like any fruit pies but I’m coming around to them. But pecan pie will always have my heart.
Where do I start with favorite pie!! All your pies are delicious!!! Straws/rhubarb pie is our family’s favorite!!
My favorite is strawberry rhubarb – my grandma always made them for me. Brings back wonderful memories when I make them now.
My favorite pie is German Chocolate. Might have to make one this weekend.
My favorite pie is pie. but one stands out from my childhood- it was called German Chocolate pie and it came from the House of Pies in Houston Texas. Chocolate cream pie with coconut flakes and sliced almonds all throughout. The perfect mix of creamy chocolate and crunch. It was delicious!!
Favorite Pie is easy, my Grandma’s Apple Pie with a water whip crust. The key is the apples, only McIntosh!
As for peanut butter, I love pretty much EVERYTHING with PB, but there is a cake at a local restaurant chain in RI (where I grew up). Money from each cake purchase or even from each SLICE, provides a donation to the Hasbro Children’s Hospital. It is known as the “Giving Cake”. This amazingly delish four-layered cake is a combo of peanut butter and chocolate. Here’s a link to read more about it: https://www.greggsusa.com/the-giving-cake
One I don’t make very often is my favorite my grandmother’s butterscotch pie. It was my father’s too. My next favorite is golden peach pie, a recipe also from my grandmother.
