Answer : APPLE PIE
apple pie – n
pie (with a top crust) containing sliced apples and sugar
An apple pie is a pie in which the principal filling ingredient is apple.
It is generally double-crusted with pastry both above and below the filling – the upper crust may be a circular or a pastry lattice woven of crosswise strips. The filling generally also includes sugar, butter, and cinnamon, sometimes also lemon juice or nutmeg; many older recipes call for honey in place of the then-expensive sugar.
Apple pie is an unofficial symbol of the United States and one of its signature comfort foods.
Recipes for Dutch apple pie go back to the Middle Ages. An early Dutch language cookbook from 1514, Een notabel boecxken van cokeryen (“A notable little cookery book”), letterpress printed in Brussels by Thomas van der Noot, who may also have been the author, documents a recipe for Appeltaerten (modern Dutch Appeltaarten ‘apple pies’).
