What Is the McDonald's Holiday Pie?
The McDonald's holiday pie is a seasonal dessert sold in the U.S. during the winter holiday period. It features a flaky pastry shell filled with a sweet, spiced custard-like filling. The item is similar in format to the classic McDonald's apple pie but uses a different filling profile. Availability varies by region and is often limited to select locations and time frames.
Ingredients and Nutrition
The filling typically includes sugar, enriched flour, palm oil, eggs, and spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. The pastry shell contains wheat flour, vegetable oil, and sugar. A standard serving contains moderate calories, fat, and carbohydrates, making it a rich but small dessert option. For detailed nutrition, see the official McDonald's nutrition page at McDonald's Nutrition Facts.
Price, Taste, and Availability
Prices generally range from about $2 to $4, depending on location and any local promotions. The pie is often sold warm and has a soft, creamy filling with a lightly crispy crust. Customer reports describe it as sweet and seasonal, with a flavor distinct from the year-round apple pie. Check your local McDonald's or the official website for current menu availability.
