A cozy twist on a classic fruit pie. Four & Twenty Blackbirds pairs sweet, tender pears with a hint of bourbon and a golden crumble topping for a dessert that’s buttery, warmly spiced, and full of fall flavor. Serve a slice slightly warm with vanilla ice cream for a little extra indulgence. Perfect for a holiday spread—or whenever you’re craving something sweet and seasonal.
Brooklyn, NY
Four & Twenty Blackbirds pie bakery was founded in Brooklyn in 2009 by sisters and pie makers Melissa Elsen and Emily Elsen. Their business is focused on making pies in a truly handmade way, using seasonal and fresh ingredients sourced from local orchards. The care that goes into their homemade pies is demonstrated in the unique and outstanding flavor, unlike any other in New York City. The sisters started the custom pie business out of an apartment in Crown Heights, until opening their first brick and mortar in Gowanus in 2009.
