Needs custard.

And a multiple choice option for the 'served with'. :)

Absolutely needs custard, and without a covered top it's not a pie it's a tart (British English usage)!

Why U no make checkboxes?

Apple pies are best either with a full crust top and bottom, or a streusel crumble on the top so they're like a pie-cobbler.

And both ice cream AND whipped cream!

[solarbird]

Yes! Cobbler is wonderful.

All that said, really, all of these answers are valid.

Ah, but what flavor of ice cream?

[jeriendhal.livejournal.com]

Vanilla. Anything else is heresy. ;p

I had a slice of apple pie at a restaurant once, topped with cinnamon ice cream. I recommend it.

My mother always covered hers with concentric rings of sliced apple, with a sprinkling of brown sugar and allspice. ^_^

I prefer my apple pie with no enhancements. My husband prefers with cheese, preferably a slice of old cheddar.

Apple pie by definition only has a top crust, fully covered with slits. No bottom crust. It's called "deep dish apple pie," is served warm enough to melt the ice cream it must have with it. I inherited the recipe from my mother, who got it from the 1946 Good Housekeeping cookbook she received as a wedding present.

I haven't made one in far too long, but pumpkin is the pie of preference for me for Thanksgiving, and cherry is the pie of request at the friend's I have a standing invitation to for the holiday, so it'll have to wait at least a week or two.
