When given a choice of pretty much any dessert vs. pie, I will always choose pie. The delightful buttery piecrust combined with a sweet filling is just pure magic. With fruit pies, cream pies, nut pies, and more—there are endless flavor options to serve for Pi Day (March 14), Thanksgiving, and beyond. I've even been known to request pie in favor of cake on my birthday. Instacart recently determined which pie flavors reigned supreme in each state. The clear winner for the United States as a whole was (not surprisingly) apple pie with more than 27% of sales going to the traditional flavor. Breaking down the numbers further via state, however, revealed more delicious preferences.

Nothing's more classic American than apple pie, unless it's cherry, banana cream, pumpkin, peach or sweet potato pie! We've got the best recipes for pies that are served up across the country for holidays, celebrations and as an extra-special treat.
While pumpkin pie gives pecan pie a run for its money at Thanksgiving, and apple pie, blueberry pie, key lime pie, and other flavors all have their fans in Texas, pecan pie is the No. 1 pie in the state.
Smaller and slightly sweeter than a traditional or Persian lime, Key limes are the star of Florida's favorite sweet treat, the Key lime pie. While the Florida Keys are most commonly associated with Key lime pie (for obvious reasons!), the entire state embraces the dish.
Since these are Thanksgiving-specific pies, we've gotta mention the quintessential ones—pumpkin pie, sweet potato pie, pecan pie, and apple pie. They're classics for a reason, and we really think our recipes for them are the best.
