National Apple Pie Day

Apple pie is a classic American dessert that is made with a sweet, spiced apple filling baked inside a flaky pastry crust. The filling is typically made with sliced apples, sugar, cinnamon, and other spices, such as nutmeg or allspice. The crust is made from a mixture of flour, butter, and water, which is rolled out and then used to line a pie dish. Apple pie is a beloved dessert in the United States and has a long history in American culture. It is often served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, which complements the sweet and tart flavors of the apple filling. While apple pie is traditionally associated with American cuisine, it is enjoyed around the world and can be found in many different variations. Some recipes call for the addition of other fruits, such as cranberries or raspberries, while others use a crumbly streusel topping instead of a traditional pastry crust.
