17 Favorite Apple Pie Recipes

Apple pie, caramel apple pie, apple-cherry pie — our recipes offer 17 choices for creating your best apple pie ever.

Crumb-Topped Apple Pie Trio [1]

Crumb-Topped Apple Pie Trio

Crisp on top, sweetly tender inside, this quintessential fall dessert blends tart and sweet apples—Granny Smith, Jonagold and Braeburn—with sugar and cinnamon under a brown-sugar and walnut crumb topping.

Apple Pie [5]

Lisa Sparks, who owns Lisa's Pie Shop in Atlanta, Indiana (north of Indianapolis), blends tangy Granny Smiths and mellower Jonathans in her double-crust pie seasoned with cinnamon.

Tapioca thickens the pale filling, making a lusciously clear sauce that wraps around the tender sliced fruit. Lisa says this apple pie recipe brought top honors at both local and national pie competitions.

Caramel Apple Pie [9]

Caramel-dipped apples inspired baker Caroline Imig to create this dessert for Wayne's Family Restaurant in Oconto, Wisconsin (north of Green Bay).

A mantle of flour-sugar-butter crumbs bakes crisp over sliced crisp-tart Cortland apples. Each serving gets a spoonful of caramel topping and a sprinkling of toasted nuts.

Apple-Pear Praline Pie [13]

This picture-perfect pie requires more than a flaky crust. "The key to this pie is the apples you use," says Mary Schrier of Cumberland, Iowa, who got this recipe from an old, handwritten family recipe book. She suggests not using Red Delicious apples. Instead, make this with Granny Smith, Jonathan or sweet-tart heirloom apples.

Caramel-Apple Pie [21]

This recipe took first place two years in a row at Nebraska City, Nebraska's Applejack Festival. It's easier to eat than a caramel apple, but tastes just as good.

Apple Butter-Pumpkin Pie [25]

The classic pumpkin pie gets even better with the addition of apple butter, which gives extra sweetness and a slightly softer texture to the dessert. A streusel topping adds a bit of crunch.

Cider-Spiked Apple and Pecan Tart

Upside Down Apple-Pear Pie [57]

This fruit-pecan pie bakes on top of a gooey brown sugar syrup. When it comes out of the oven, you turn it upside down like a sticky bun. Serve with custard and/or caramel sauces.

Single-Serving Caramel Apples [61]

Joan Wagner of Overland Park, Kansas, considers these single-serving apple pies her easy-entertaining recipe. "You can make these up to six hours ahead and cover them with plastic wrap, so the puff pastry doesn't dry out," she says. "The desserts can bake while your coffee is brewing."

Christmas Apple Pie [65]

Choose your favorite dried fruit to pair with apples for this double-crust pie. Present the cooled pie on a bigger pie plate full of gumdrops for a festive look. Change the color of the gumdrops (or try a different candy) for different seasons!
