    I am not a baker Hugh, but the pie looks delicious! I have never had apple pie à la mode, just with a piece of cheddar cheese on top, the Canadian way (though I’ve lived in the U.S. since 1966).

      Ah, so it’s a Canadian tradition to eat apple pie with cheddar cheese, then, Linda? I wondered where it came from as I’ve never seen anybody eat cheese with apple pie in the UK.

        Yes, it is a Canadian tradition Hugh – sharp cheddar (Black Diamond brand is the most popular). When we moved here to the States, we were surprised to find no one had heard of it – it is tasty. You have to try it and see if you like the contrast of cheddar cheese and the sweet of the apples.

          I’ve eaten an apple with cheese, but never apples in a pie with pastry and cheese, Linda. I’d never heard of eating it like that since I read some of the comments on this post.

            They might all be Canadians voting for apple pie with cheese Hugh. Well, if you enjoy cheese with an apple, then you have to try it. :)

    Probably some heat and some vanilla ice cream. Most likely I wouldn’t get any, though. That’s my husband’s favorite pie so I doubt I’d be able to get it away from him. :)

      He sounds greedy if he doesn’t share apple pie with you, Janis. I’d demand a bigger spoon for you.

    I do have a sweet tooth but I’m not much of a baker – only thing I make well are choc chip cookies. I like coffee with pie.

      Chock chip cookies sound great. I hope you make them often.

    Homemade apple pie, Hugh? Beautiful job and I like the little leaves!

    Whipped cream, no question! I like making my own, but I use Land O’Lakes brand, very little sugar. The pie looks inviting. My husband can’t get through a week without a piece of pie. He’ll be right over ;)

      I wish I baked more, Terri. I recall baking banana bread during the pandemic; this is the first thing I’ve baked since then. The leaves on the top are something I remember my grandmother putting on the pies she baked. Back then, there was a new pie almost every day.

        I’m not picky, but in this case Vanilla would be best suited.

    The thought of warm apple pie and cold Madagascan vanilla ice cream makes my taste buds tingle!

        One of the most delicious ways to do the cheese is to bake the apple pie and when it is done sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the pie and pop it back in until the cheese if melted.

    Hi Hugh, I like Liesbet’s idea of hot chocolate!! I never would have thought of that for pie but instead coffee or tea. But hot cholate sounds yummy. When I was a kid our family served ice cream with pie at the holidays. I like both but not together. My husband got me into having apple pie with cheddar cheese. I’m not a big fan of cheddar, however mild cheddar does go well with apple pie.

      I know people who love apple and cheese sandwiches, Lea. And I agree that apples go well with cheese. I’m not sure about eating cheese with an apple pie, though. Maybe I need to try it out. I prefer my apple pie served with hot custard (and lots of it).

        I’ve never had it with custard but that sounds delicious Hugh. It’s a good thing I just ate because if I hadn’t I would have had to go get a pie with all the sides mentioned after reading all the suggestions. :-)

    It looks absolutely delicious, Hugh! I would serve it with Yorkshire Gold tea! It’s only after 8:00 a.m., but I sure wish I had a slice of that beautiful pie! Wow! Cher xoxoxo

      I don’t think I’ve ever eaten apple pie for breakfast, Cher, although I do eat some fruit every morning for breakfast.

        I haven’t either, Hugh; however, the pie looks so tasty that were it in front of me, I’d most definitely reach for a slice! Yes, having fruit every morning for breakfast is a wise idea! Cher xoxoxo

    I bake a lot and a lot of pies. Might depend on what this pie contains. Ice cream or whipped cream would do nicely but if it were apple, maybe maple whipped cream, if peach, cinnamon whipped cream.

      It’s an apple pie, so whipped cream or ice cream sounds perfect, Noelle. Or maybe both? My partner likes apple pie served with custard and ice cream.

    Looks yummy, Hugh. Can I have a slice? :) I’m missing tasty baked goods. I would serve it with a variety of tea and/or hot chocolate. Here in Argentina, they’d serve it with their national herbal drink, mate. :)
