You missed National Pie Day (January 23rd) and National Pi Day (March 14) is too far away. Papa C Pies feels the same way. That’s why February is our favorite month of the year. It’s National Pie Month! To help inspire and share the love of pie, here are a few fun facts about pie and national pie month.
A Fun, Brief History of Pie
The first recipe for pie dates back to 2,000 BC (chicken pie).
Depictions of sweet pies were found on the tomb walls of Ramses II, dating this beloved dessert all the way to Ancient Egypt.
The 1500s saw the advent of fruit pies, or tarts. The first known cherry pie was made for Queen Elizabeth I.
The 1600s hailed the arrival of pie in the Americas when the pilgrims first brought their English-style meat pies. The first recorded pumpkin pie showed up in 1675.
The last two hundred years have particularly seen the evolution and love of pie in America. After all, what do we usually call something that’s patriotic? “As American as Apple Pie!”
In 1990, National Pie Month was created. We’ve never looked back!
