Carter & Rye

We’re open regular shop hours Friday–Sunday AND we’re back at the Aksarben Farmers Market this Sunday. Hot pies! Frozen pies! Pies for now! Pies for later! The menu this week is giving: breakfast, dessert, emotional support, always having something handmade and buttery in your freezer!

The city is a little quieter amidst hot summer slumps, schedules are weird, everyone’s either on vacation or recovering from vacation, which makes this an elite weekend to swing by, eat something hot, and stock the freezer like the capable little comfort goblin you are. 😈

This week’s menu 👇

🤎 Brown Sugar Cinnamon
She took last week off. People ask us all the time, “What’s in this one?” and the answer is: brown sugar, cinnamon, butter. Nothing complicated, completely perfect.

🫐 Blueberry Lavender Jam
A from-scratch jam, because that’s always how we do things. Simmered a reckless amount of blueberries for hours with sugar (but not too much sugar, we are not making candy here) and lavender flowers, letting the whole thing get jammy, lightly floral, and deeply charming. Blueberry and lavender have this gorgeous little handoff where the berry blooms first and the lavender floats in right after. Very elegant.

🥔 Cheesy Dill Hash Brown Casserole
Shredded potatoes, whipped cream cheese, mozzarella, fresh dill, garlic. A fan fave, an old faithful!

🥓 Bacon Egg & Cheese
Farm-fresh local eggs, smoky thick bacon, melty cheese, and a handful of hash browns. It’s breakfast bliss. It’s a drive-thru sandwich if the drive-thru used local eggs.

See ya this weekend! 🥧

Rain or shine, we’re making hand pies. 🥧 🌧️ ☀️ Find us at the shop Friday–Sunday like usual and at the Aksarben Farmers Market on Sunday.

And a heads up: we’ll be at farmers market this weekend, but not the following one on June 14!

The forecast looks a little questionable, but honestly, what’s better than a flaky hand pie and a cup of coffee on a rainy morning? Feels like the opening scene of the Midwest sitcom we’ve all agreed our shop belongs in. 😉

This week’s lineup 👇

🤎 Brown Sugar Cinnamon
The classic. Buttery, cinnamon-y, and impossible to be mad about.

🍓 Strawberry Cheesecake with Salty Pretzel Crisp
Sweet strawberry jam, creamy cheesecake, and a sweet-salty pretzel topping that turns this pie into a memory.

🥔 Cheesy Hash Brown & Dill Casserole
Hash browns, mozzarella, cream cheese, garlic, and plenty of fresh dill. A longtime favorite for good reason.

🍯 Charcuterie
Genoa salami, Shadow Brook Farm cheese, and our house honey-fennel jam. If you know, you know. If ya don’t, you oughta!

See you this weekend! 💜
