Deep fried pies at Burger King and Jolibee

Tastykake French Apple pie was my favorite, but the quality has dipped since the Flowers Foods buyout.
Plus, they downsized everything. I see the boxes in the store and think, gosh they used to be good when I was a kid. Now the chocolate and white icing have the consistency of wax.
 
Wienerschnitzel used to have fried apple pies. Then they disappeared from the menu. I later learned that they still offered them, you had to ask for them. They're probably long gone now.
 
Turns out there's one about 20 miles from my house.

I used to drive out to DeKalb to visit the Maid-Rite restaurant until it closed. Maybe I need to point my car in a different direction and try this place...

I don’t see any desserts on their menu other than Tastee Freez.

But they have limited time items often. I remember when they had tamales.
 
McDonald’s brought back fried apple pies for a limited time. Tried them (2 for $3.99) and other than it wasn’t scalding hot they brought back tons of memories. If they had cherry it would have been even better.

(CHICAGO – June 16, 2026) – Summer tends to move fast – but the moments worth remembering don’t. And with America’s 250th birthday around the corner, we’re bringing back a fan-favorite and bona fide national treasure made for slowing down and savoring the season: the Fried Apple Pie.​
If you know, you know. If you don't, June 23 is your chance to find out. The OG Fried Apple Pie is back at participating restaurants nationwide for a limited time. The all-day menu item features our signature filling made with 100% American-grown apples, wrapped in the same golden crunch and flaky fried crust fans remember – or soon won’t forget.​
 
I really try hard to watch what I eat, and stay away from too many fried foods. But I suspect a couple fried apple pies are on the menu, before McDonald's stops making them again.

Holy cow the ones we got had lava hot filling. They were made-to-order so they were right out of the deep fryer.

Once we let them sit a while I would say they are identical to the ones offered years ago.

Different McDonald’s have a second flavor, the ones around here have some sort of blueberry mix whereas some are a strawberry mix.
