ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR - Bon AppΓ©tit, Los Angeles Times

In Justice of the Pies, Maya-Camille Broussard shares more than 85 recipes for sweet and savoury pies and other mouthwatering creations that put her social mission-based bakery on the map. These include her famous Salted Caramel Peach Pie and Brandied Banana Butterscotch Pie, as well as hearty renditions like the Fig + Pig Quiche and Roasted Brussels Sprouts + Cherry Tart. Maya-Camille also tells the stories of heroes outside the kitchenβ€”luminaries who strive for social justice and equityβ€”and shares recipes they've inspired.

Maya-Camille's bakery was launched in honour of her father, who was a criminal defence attorney and had a deep love of baking pie. Through her bakery, she proves that good work and delicious decadence can go hand in hand.
