Apple Linarioโs Apol Pie
View this post on Instagram
Sherry Lyn Gonzales-Apolinario has always been an apple pie lover. โItโs a sure-shot perk-me-upper when Iโm stressed,โ she explains. โIt just delights me every time.โ
Apple-Linarioโs Apol Pie started from an intense craving in 2020 when the malls were closed and it was impossible for Sherry to find any apple pie. Out of desperation (and despite not being a baker), she decided to make one herself. The first attempt wasnโt perfect, but she got inspired to do better. After doing her research and asking her mother-in-lawโs baker friend for tips, she kept baking until she was satisfied.
