The origins of apple pie can no longer be traced, the only certainty is that it is a typical American food. The popularity of apple pie has made the United States the world's largest producer of apples, according to the American Food and Drink Dictionary.
There is a saying about apple pie - "LIKE APPLE PIES" (like apple pie). This allusion comes from the post-war period in the United States. Due to the lack of materials, hard-working mothers could only make the cheapest apple pie and place them neatly in the cupboard in order to allow their children to eat desserts happily. Later, I used this metaphor for the neat arrangement of items.
American apple pies come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and flavors, including freestyle, standard two-layer, and more. According to the raw materials, it can be divided into:caramel apple pie,apple crumb pie, sour cream apple pie......
