The Best Pie in the US is Only 60 Miles from Rochester, MN

Nothing beats a good pie. If I could only pick one, I think I'd have to go with an apple pie as my favorite. I make this apple pie for Thanksgiving that's HUGE, it's around 3 inches deep. It's nuts!

I also really like a good pumpkin pie and pecan pies too... so many good options when it comes to pies!

Baking a pie at home can be quite the feat, though. Yes, I have this apple pie recipe that I use, but when I tried to make my first Thanksgiving pie, I attempted a mixed berry pie. It turned out like soup...
