Italian Easter Pie Memories and Recipe

Every year at Easter time, my beloved aunt would make her Italian Easter Pie. Aunt Mary came to the USA from Italy, lived with us during my childhood, and in many ways was like a second mother to me. Now that she's gone, I miss her very much, especially at this time of year.

In her honor, I created this delicious, easy appetizer, which has been very popular with my readers: Italian Easter Pie Palmiers (see below for links to the recipe).

While the French palmier is named after a palm leaf, the shape reminds me more of a heart and that seemed perfect for my memory of Aunt Mary and her Easter Pie. I can testify that a bite of this palmier will give you an almost identical taste to what my aunt made every Easter.

Buona Pasqua, Aunt Mary!
Happy Easter, everyone!
