from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_pie ... apple pie recipes go back to the time of Chaucer. The 1381 recipe (see illustration below) lists the ingredients as good apples, good spices, figs, raisins

Recipes for Dutch apple pie go back centuries. There exists a painting from the Dutch Golden Age, dated 1626, featuring such a pie.
