Pie

A pie is a baked dish typically consisting of a pastry crust filled with sweet or savory ingredients. The crust can be made from flour, butter, water, and sometimes sugar, while the filling can vary widely. Sweet pies often contain fruits (like apples, cherries, or berries), custards, or chocolate, and are commonly served as desserts. Savory pies may include ingredients like meat, vegetables, or cheese, such as in the case of pot pies or quiches. Pies can be open-faced (without a top crust) or covered with a second layer of pastry. They are often served sliced and can be enjoyed warm, at room temperature, or cold, depending on the type of pie.
