Humble Pie in Providence…

Humble Pie

You can find a cheap pie anywhere. If you want something of a bit higher quality, made by dedicated bakers and served with fresh, local ingredients, you should check out the Humble Pie Company of Providence. There is nothing to be humble about when it comes to their quality of pie!

They have a number of great pies available, such as their summer vegetable quiche, made with summer squash, zucchini, feta, scallions and spices, and baked in a quiche custard. The eggs come from Johnston, the cheese comes from Narragansett, and the the entire thing is delicious.

Or you could try their chicken pot pie. Their chicken is brined in various herbs and spices, baked with fresh veggies, including fresh, tangy sorrel, and served with spiced gravy.

For a more traditional pie, try their blueberry basil pie. Filled with fresh blueberries from South County’s famous Schartner Farms and sweetened with an organic basil-based simple syrup and topped with a cardamom crumble.

The Humble Pie Company makes their baked good not only with expertise, but with a combination of great ingredients from Rhode Island and the surrounding area. This includes honey from Aquidneck, chicken from Baffoni’s Poultry Farm in Johnston, feta cheese from Narragansett Creamery, and fresh cranberries from Stone Bridge Farms in Massachusetts.

For a great dessert pie, try their peach crumble pie. Made with fresh peaches from Dame Farms and Orchards in Johnston and topped with cinnamon and nutmeg, the peach crumble pie is a great treat, whether it’s in the lighter summer months or as a wintertime treat.
