Is apple pie really a pie?

* Technically, yes: An apple pie is a pie by the traditional definition. It's a baked dish with a crust (top and/or bottom) and a filling.

* But there's a debate: Some argue that "true" pies have a bottom crust and a top crust. Apple pies often have a bottom crust and a lattice or single top crust, which can cause some debate.

* It's more about the experience: Ultimately, whether you call it a pie or not depends on your personal definition and preferences. What matters most is the deliciousness of that apple-filled goodness!

So, while there might be some technical arguments, there's no doubt that apple pie is a beloved and iconic dessert. 🥧
