Recipe Story:

Elizabeth was so excited to talk to us about her famous family recipe for peach pie that has been handed down for a few generations. Named after her mother-in-law Aurelia, this homemade dish has always been a favorite among family members because it is both simple to make and delicious. While working at the Mound Lab in Miamisburg, Ohio, Elizabeth often made this dish for her family on warm summer days. Aurelia’s peach pie tastes great on
its own, but accompanied with a bit of vanilla ice cream is the perfect way to enjoy this tasty treat.
