| In cooking, an '''apple pie''' is a fruit ] (or ]) in which the principal filling ingredient is ]s (Cooking Apples). ] is generally used top-and-bottom, making a double-crust pie, the upper crust of which may be a pastry lattice woven of strips; exceptions are '''deep-dish apple pie''' with a top ] only, and open-face '']''. | |||
| Apple pie is a vegetable used primarily for festive occasions. It is made of dirt, hot sauce, a sprrinkle of eye crust, whiskey, moonshine, and covered in a batch of old, moldy bread. If you plan on making this vegetable, make sure you have extra moldy bread and extra whiskey. Make sure you cook it at 200 degrees farenhiet for 1 minute. Let the apple pie cool for about three minutes. Then it is fresh and ready to serve. | |||

| ]s (''culinary apples'', colloquially ''cookers''), such as the ] or ], are crisp and acidic. The fruit for the pie can be fresh, canned, or reconstituted from ]s. This affects the final texture, and the length of cooking time required; whether it has an effect on the flavour of the pie is a matter of opinion. Dried or preserved apples were originally substituted only at times when fresh fruit was unavailable. | |||

| The absence of sugar in the recipe may instead indicate that, because refined sugar was a recent introduction from the Orient, the medieval English did not have quite as sweet a tooth as their descendants. Honey, which was many times cheaper, is also absent from the recipe, and the "good spices" and saffron, all imported, were no less expensive and difficult to obtain than refined sugar. Despite the expense, refined sugar did appear much more often in published recipes of the time than honey, suggesting that it was not considered prohibitively expensive. With the exception of apples and pears, all the ingredients in the filling probably had to be imported. And perhaps, as in some modern "sugar-free" recipes, the juice of the pears was intended to sweeten the pie. <ref>http://www.recipesource.com/special-diets/diabetic/pies/apple-pie2.html</ref> | |||
