apple pies

Crusted fruit bakes

Apple pies is the plural of apple pie, the classic American dessert consisting of a pastry crust filled with sliced apples, sugar, and spices like cinnamon.

The phrase as American as apple pie uses the dish as a symbol of wholesome national identity, though the dessert actually originated in Europe.

In rhyming slang, particularly British, apple pies means eyes: She's got lovely apple pies.
