An '''apple pie''' is a [[pie]] in which the principal filling is [[apple]]s. Apple pie is often served with [[whipped cream]], [[ice cream]] ("apple pie [[à la mode]]"), [[custard]] or [[cheddar cheese]].<ref name=Atlas>{{cite news |last1=Waters |first1=Michael |title=The Long, Storied Controversy Over Cheese on Apple Pie |url=https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/cheese-apple-pie |access-date=11 June 2018 |work=Atlas Obscura |date=13 July 2017}}</ref> It is generally double-crusted, with pastry both above and below the filling; the upper crust may be solid or latticed (woven of crosswise strips). The bottom crust may be baked separately ("[[Blind-baking|blind]]") to prevent it from getting soggy. [[Tarte Tatin]] is baked with the crust on top, but served with it on the bottom.

Originating in the [[14th century]] in England, apple pie recipes are now a standard part of cuisines in many countries where apples grow. Apple pie is a significant dessert in many countries, including the [[United Kingdom]], [[Eire]], [[Sweden]], [[Norway]], [[Australia]], [[Germany]], [[New Zealand]], and the [[US]].<ref name="Pinch" />
