Delicious: Even more patriotic than apple pie
partner
If it is true that there
is nothing more American than apple pie, then I submit that there
is nothing even
more American than this totally ingenious
apple pie with cheddar crumbles baked right on top. Wait for it! It
totally makes sense. We are a country of go-getters, ambitious
dreamers with ambitious dreams, and really, what's more ambitious
than taking an already nearly-perfect dessert food that has long
symbolized the beauty of America (i.e., apple pie) and
making it twice as
beautiful. And not only just twice as beautiful any old
way--twice as beautiful with the addition of
cheese.
America, I salute you. And I salute the
two fat Als who were kind enough and
patriotic enough to have brought this kind of resourcefulness,
creativity, and live wire enthusiasm to the world as a whole.
Sticking to traditional apple pie?
Try this delicious (and healthy) recipe from SELF--half the amount
of sugar, still satiably sweet.
