Apple Pie

The Apple Pie, with its two rounds of pastry enclosing slices of cinnamon sugared apples, is a North American favorite. So popular, in fact, that you will find it in some form on most restaurant menus, in bakeries, in the bakery and freezer section of grocery stores, and most home bakers have a secret recipe for their own "best" apple pie. While some like their slice of apple pie served plain, others like it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of softly whipped cream, or with a generous slice of sharp cheddar cheese.
