Humans have been making pie for millennia. Archeologists uncovered a recipe for chicken pie carved into a stone tablet that dates back to 2000 B.C., and there's firm evidence that Ancient Greeks developed the pie pastry we use today.

The food's longevity makes perfect sense when you consider just how close to perfect it is: pie comes wrapped in its own edible packaging and can be stuffed with various fillings, from sweet to savory, that can meet every type of dietary need. And with the days of fall and winter holiday celebrations right around the corner, there's no time like the present to brush up on your pie recipes. Thanksgiving may still be a couple of months away, but a decadent slice of pumpkin or pecan pie never goes amiss.

To help you get started, Stacker compiled a list of pie recipes from Allrecipes. From classics like apple and chicken pot pie to more unique options, there's undoubtedly something to get your mouth watering.
