Warm, gooey apple filling. Crisp, flaky, butter crust. The steamy aroma of cinnamon and cloves. For those of us who grew up in the Northern California countryside, nothing says home baked like a seasonal apple pie in the heart of harvest time.
Luckily for us, there are dozens of apple farms and orchards with their own pie shops throughout the state. These places use recipes that have been handed down from generation to generation to make that delicious homemade treat just like mom used to.
Here are just a few:
