ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Pie

Pie is a delicious dessert that you eat after dinner or sometimes for a special occasion. It is made up of a yummy filling, like fruit or custard, that is put inside a crust made of flour, butter, and water. The crust also goes on the top of the filling to cover it up like a hat.

After the pie is put together, it is baked in the oven until it is golden brown and smells amazing. Then, it can be served warm with ice cream or whipped cream on top.

People love to make different kinds of pie, like apple, pumpkin, and cherry. Some even use unusual ingredients like sweet potatoes or pecans. But no matter what kind of pie you make, it is always a yummy treat that makes people happy.
