Levee High Apple Pie

Eighteen Golden Delicious apples, each one hand-peeled and hand-placed, piled into a made-from-scratch crust until the whole thing stands nearly nine inches tall and tips the scale around ten pounds. Mary Hostetter created the Levee High Apple Pie in 1993 to honor the volunteers who built a ten-foot levee against the Great Flood, and it put her Kimmswick bakery on the map. It ships frozen, ready to bake hot and fresh in your own oven. The towering Missouri legend, an Oprah’s Favorite Things alum.

Everyone in the historic town of Kimmswick, MO, knows Mary Hostetter’s restaurant is the spot for a delicious, country-style meal. But word of her famously tall, flaky-crusted Levee-High Apple Pie—each one piled high with 18 hand-peeled and hand-sliced apples has traveled around the world and made her downhome bakery a source for a true slice of heaven. An avid baker, Mary Hostetter started off in humbly 1983, offering homemade baked goods at festivals and fairs in the St. Louis area. But by Christmas of 1984, she was receiving 30,000 orders and knew she had to expand. Today, Mary welcomes more than 300 customers daily with the help of 75 staff at the Blue Owl Restaurant.
