Rectangular with a lattice top, this single-serve pastry holds sliced apples cooked with cinnamon and sugar. The crust bakes up golden and lightly flaky, with a dusting of sugar on top, while the filling stays thick and a little gooey, often hotter than it looks from the outside. It's the baked version the chain brought in after the original fried pie. Compared with that older style, the crust is more breadlike and less blistered, and the apple filling leans less caramelized. It's been on and off menus since the late 1960s, and it's usually sold as a low-cost dessert.
