This Pi Day, celebrate with pie! Eat your way through all 3.14 sides of this mathematical holiday with these deliciously round eats.
It’s almost here– the husband’s favorite “holiday”– Pi Day!
Pi Day is a mathematical celebration of all things round, a circular excuse to devour pizza, gobble down tarts, and most of all– eat pie!
If you’re confused, here’s the deal– The mathematical symbol ‘Pi’ stands for the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter, and it equals (approximately) 3.14.
Actually, the number’s quite a bit longer than 3.14, but we’ll forget that for now.
Math nerds everywhere, along with their math-indifferent food-loving friends (like me!), use this fabulous formula to celebrate pi with pie on the calendar’s closest equivalent to 3.14– March 14th!
And then we come full circle.
Confused?
That’s okay!
All you really need to know is that March 14th is a fantastic day to eat pie.
This Pi Day, celebrate with all things round– and especially with PIE! Want inspiration?
Check out these circular eats!
Savory Pies
Want to try something savory and round?
Go for pizza pie, savory galettes, or even the very round quiche!
If you want something very impressive, try this spiral sweet potato tart from Bunsen Burner Bakery!

Dessert Pies
This Pi Day, make sure to try out a sweet pie (or two!).
I also like to make galettes (they’re round, and basically pie!), crostata, and tarts!
Try this Bakewell tart from Marsha’s Baking Addiction, this fig + blood orange tart from Use Your Noodles, and this strawberry hazelnut pie from Girl in the Little Red Kitchen.
Then, check out my favorite sweet pies listed below!

I wasn’t planning on celebrating pi day – but after feasting my eyes on your delectable spread I cannot wait to break out some pi on the 14th!

I’d forgotten about Pi Day. Thanks for all the great pie ideas. I think we’ll have one savory and one sweet.
