McDonald’s makes one of the best apple pies which has been a
staple on their menu for as long as I can remember. A number of years ago McDonald’s started
offering limited edition pies depending on the season. I know that they had offered
a S’Mores pie (which is gross), a pumpkin pie (which is fabulous), and Strawberry
& Cream pie (which is alright, but nothing to write home about). But I had
never known that they had offered a McDonald’s
Holiday Pie up until a few weeks ago.
On the way home from running a few errands, I swung through
McDonald’s and decided to pick up a holiday pie to give it a try. Incase you’re
not familiar; the holiday pie is a vanilla custard pie which is held inside a
flaky, crusty and then topped with a bit of sugar and rainbow sprinkles. The pies are served warm as is the case in
all McDonald’s dessert pies. It’s a holiday party in a little handheld pie …
and upon the first bite it brings that party to your mouth.
It reminded me of a Boston Cream donut without the chocolate
atop of it. If you go into it with an open mind, not expecting to taste an
apple pie, it’s truly delicious. Secondly,
if you enjoy custard in any way, I think you’d find this to be a slam dunk. My mother tried it and since she truly only
likes the apple pie and typically is a fan of flan or coconut custard pie, she
wasn’t a fan. But regardless … this was a slam dunk for me.
A pie is 270 calories or 7 points plus values.
