Shekerburas Meet Wisconsin Cherry Pies

Was your pie underbaked, overbaked or just right? What was your favorite part of the process?

My individual pies were baked just right. My favorite part of the process was finding a recipe for Cherry Shekerburas in the July/August issue of the magazine: "BAKE." Shekerbura is a traditional sweet pastry hailing from Azerbaijan. The yeasted pastry was new to me, and I found it very delicate and delicious.

How did you add a Wisconsin touch to your flavors or decoration?

My Wisconsin touches included Door County Cherries, Creamy Wisconsin butter and milk, and, of course, a lovely glaze of pure Wisconsin honey on top of the pies

How did you do?

Absolutely lovely.
