Let's talk about pie. Truly, one of the greatest desserts ever created. The possibilities of pies are endless— Apple, blackberry, rhubarb, coconut cream, chocolate, lingonberry... There are single-crust, filled, top-crust (also known as cobblers) and two-crust pies.
But the best kind of pie, in my opinion, are "Mile High" pies. Because if you're going to eat a pie ... EAT A PIE — piled high with meringue, cream or fruit filling.
And if you need an excuse to indulge in a little pie, National Pi Day is March 14 (Get it? 3/14 ... 3.14).
Here are 12 "Mile High" pies to drool over.
What's your favorite kind of "Mile High" pie?

That 3 layer pumpkin pie sounds amazing. I love pumpkin pie - and 3 layers makes it sound even better.

I definitely like a pie with some height! The more filling the better in my opinion 🙂

I think you'll need a shovel to serve some of those mile high pies! Wow!! Great idea for a pie roundup.

Nothing beats a good warm apple pie drizzled with caramel sauce and a dollop of ice cream!
Joyce@MommyTalkShow
Apple pie is by far my favorite.
I like chocolate too. But something about chocolate pie doesn't sound as appetizing to me.
