Sweet Spot: Apple Pie at Great Maple — Kevin Andrew Falk

NEIGHBORHOOD GUIDES Know the Neighborhood Where to eat, where to drink, and what it's like to live there. EXPLORE THE GUIDES

When it comes to pie, it’s all about the crust. That’s why Great Maple owner Johnny Rivera and executive baker Kelly Stillwell created a personal apple pie that’s covered in crust all over so you can experience a crunchy edge with every bite. Two techniques are essential: baking the pie slowly, and Stillwell’s top-secret dough rolling method. To take it up a notch, add vanilla ice cream or Vermont cheddar. Say cheese!
