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 apple pie, especially warm and topped with vanilla ice cream. I love peanut butter in cookies and brownies!
Anything Peanut Butter, especially cheesecake!
My grandmother’s peanut butter squares. This old recipe is still a crowd pleaser no matter where is goes. My grown children still request it regularly. The ease of no-bake, peanut butter and rich chocolate topping is always an amazing combination!
My favorite pie is double Chocolate mocha pudding pie! It’s as decadent as it sounds. Thank you for sharing your experience with Elizabeth and giving away her cookbook. That is so gracious of you! Love Zoë bakes!
Warm apple pie with a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream! A delicious American pleasure!
My favorite is butterscotch pie! My mom spent years trying duplicate her mom’s recipe as best that she could remember as she was 12 when her mom passed so there were many variations. One time she was going to teach all of us how to make it and told us to bring our recipes to take notes on. Each of us had a difficult recipe than the one she was using to teach with!
My mother makes a peanut butter pie that is a favorite of many of her family and friends. She adds peanut butter to her normal cream pie recipe. That’s it! I won’t say peanut butter pie is my favorite, but I do like it.
Strawberry rhubarb pie is my absolute favorite! Also, chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting is delicious too.
i love a good cherry pie!!! thanks
Key Lime Pie
Not artificial stuff you buy in the store
Homemade is always the way to go
Secondly, Cherry Cheesecake
Fresh strawberry rhubarb pie and fresh blackberry are tied for first! My niece makes a mean chocolate peanut pie for the holidays. Chocolate peanut butter is my favorite flavor combination.
I love peanut butter sheet cake. Our cooks made it for us in our sorority house, and it has remained a favorite ever since.
My favorite pie is blackberry! Favorite peanut butter treat is a buckeye!
Hi Zoe and Elizabeth – loving both of your shows. My favorite pie is pretty much anything with a big pile of meringue on the top!
I absolutely love tart cherry pie!
Lemon Meringue with clouds of egg whites on top!
My favorite pie is a chocolate pecan pie. It is to die for!
I thoroughly enjoy Elizabeth’s show and her recipes! She’s very down to earth and completely reflects that area of California. Her recipes and style are simple and delicious. All her fresh fruit pies, hand pies and desserts are terrific. Then there’s Zoe with her simple flair baking. These ladies offer wonderful contrast and interest. Each make baking fun and support family values. Thank you!
My grandmas slab apple pie all day! Yum!
Whiskey Caramel Sweet Potato Pie ….. mmmmm
Favorite pie is a new one I made this summer:) Mixed berry with a tradition bottom crust and a crumbled oat/pecan topping, delicious!!
My FAVORITE pie was a cherry pie my friend made for another friend’s wedding! She had a whole table full of wedding pies all made by friends. It was divine, simple and delicious! I have never quite had one like it since!
Once a year I make a mile high apple pie, it is heaven.
Congratulations Zoe & Elizabeth on your successful shows!! I have been inspired by both of you!
Love classic recipes such as chocolate cream pie, apple pie!
Husband loves coconut cream & strawberry rhubarb pies!
We both love a good peanut butter cookie!
I love peanut butter and sweetened condensed milk mixed together and used to fill chocolate chip cookie bars – absolutely amazing and ooey gooey.
