Simple Stovetop Amish Chicken

Submitted by: IamPatSajak

In my family, we call this simple stove top recipe for chicken Chicken Pot Pie. It is not very pie like, but a very classic German/Amish dish. This is one of my very favorites, I learned to make it with my mom when I was little, this will be the first time I wrote it down! I have had it before with carrots, which I do enjoy, but I prefer it best when it is very simple. This is a very inexpensive dish.

Milk Flitcher Pie

Submitted by: Diane Berg

This is a very old Pennsylvania Dutch treat, a sort of milk and sugar pie made usually for children, as a way to use up leftover pie dough. This makes an odd-looking pie, but it tastes better than it looks. I have heard this called many names, among them Slap Jack, Flippy, Shlop Boi, Flitche, Flabby, or even Stingy Pie!

Amish Custard Cottage Cheese Pie

Submitted by: MARBALET

A hint of lemon and lots of cottage cheese adds a delightful twist to this easy-to-make, light custard pie. Use a graham cracker crust or a pastry crust -either tastes wonderful. The flavors mellow if you give it a day. Try adding chocolate curls on top.
