A square apple pie with a lattice top, set on a tray, shows a shape that differs from the round pie most people picture. Baking in a square or rectangular tin or sheet let a cook feed a crowd and cut uniform portions, a practical choice for church suppers, school dinners, and bakery counters. The woven lattice of pastry strips was both decorative and functional, letting steam escape from the sliced apples below. Apple pie became a fixture of American home baking in the 19th and early 20th centuries, drawing on English and Dutch traditions, and this arrangement reflects how those recipes adapted to large-batch cooking.
