The 1381 recipe "For to Make Tartys in Applis", is the earliest known apple pie recipe in the world. It lists the ingredients as good apples, good spices, figs, raisins and pears.
The English writer Robert Greene made the first written mention of an apple pie in his 1590 book Arcadia: "Thy breath is like the steame of apple-pyes."
By the 1740s, apple pie, formerly called house pie by the poor, have become so popular a dessert in America that Yale College was serving them every night at supper.
The sweet-toothed author Jane Austen wrote in a letter "Good apple pies are a considerable part of our domestic happiness."
The world record for eating apple pies is 4.375 three-pound pies in eight minutes, set by the world’s leading competitive eater Joey Chestnut at the Mapleside Farms World Apple Pie Eating Championship, held at Brunswick, Ohio on September 13th, 2013. That's 35 1/8th slices.
The Philippines has its own version of apple pie made from coconuts and condensed milk. Buko pie is believed to be invented by Soledad Pahud, she discovered apple pie while working as a maid in the United States, she returned to the Philippines where the lack of apples led to her coconut recipe.
An apple-pie bed is a bed in which a sheet is folded back on itself halfway down as a practical joke so that the victim cannot be at full length in it. The phrase is popularly derived from French nappe pliee "a folded napkin or sheet,"
