Grand Traverse Pie Company’s Michigan ABC Crumb

Tastemaker
By Jillian Manning | March 12, 2022

If you haven’t already had this pie, do you really live Up North? An oldie but a very goodie, the Michigan ABC (apple, blueberry, cherry) Crumb has everything you love in a pie: a flaky, melt-in-your-mouth crust on the bottom; globs of toasty crumb topping; and a delicious blend of Northern Spy apples, Michigan Rubel blueberries, and Montmorency cherries inside. If you are one of the few northerners who has not yet sampled this Michigan glory, head to your nearest Grand Traverse Pie Company location on March 14, aka Pi Day (3.14…get it?) They’re celebrating Pi Day by giving away a free slice of ABC Crumb with any purchase. Is this an excuse to go to lunch and get a free slice of pie? Yes, yes it is. Is it also an excuse to buy at least one whole pie to take home? We’ll leave that up to you.
