On May 13, the U.S. celebrates the ever-popular Apple PieDay.

The first apple pie recipe was written down as early as 1381 and does not come from North America, but from England. The phrase "as American as apple pie" has been around for more than 100 years. Since a classic pie is a bit too elaborate for us, today there is a mini version in the form of delicious apple pie croissants. The recipe can be found here and the preparation is easy with this step-by-step guide.
