Founded by local baker Clarissa Morley, Pots & Pans Pie Company first got its start selling sweet pies at farmers markets in the fall of 2016.
Until the spring of 2017, Morley baked all the pies and managed the business on her own, and it was not until the fall of that same year that her business expanded to include three different flavors of Take & Bake Pot Pies at farmers markets and select pop-ups around Indianapolis.
Pots & Pans Pie Company was so well received at the Broad Ripple farmers market that Morley was able to open a brick-and-mortar in that community, and in 2018, Pots & Pans Pie Company made its new home off North College Avenue.
The company partners with local farmers for all its ingredients and other shop offerings, including chicken, beef and pork from Becker Farms; fruit for sweet pies from Garwood Orchards; house plants from Schlegel Greenhouse, leaf lard for crusts from Gunthorp Farms and coffee beans for cold brew from Blue Mind Coffee Roasting.
Today, their menu features a variety of sweet and savory pastries and a seasonal sweet pies menu, which changes monthly and currently includes Chocolate Peanut Butter Icebox Pie, Apple Crumble Pie and Sugar Creme Brulee Pie.
The Take & Bake Pot Pies menu includes Classic Chicken Pot Pie, Beef and Mushroom Pot Pie, Biscuits and Gravy Pot Pie and Thai Chicken Curry Pot Pie.
