If you’ve ever stayed at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground, you’re probably already familiar with the quick-service restaurant there, Trail’s End Restaurant.

Now, Trail’s End got a bit of an overhaul a few years ago, but it’s still the place to go to get a quick bite to eat and a little snack. Now, usually the snacks are things like cupcakes, Mickey ice cream bars, and the like, but sometimes a new snack pops up. So join us as we head over to Fort Wilderness to try out a fun snack at Trail’s End Restaurant.

Meet the Apple Hand Pie, which is made with a flaky crust and apple-cinnamon filling for $6.29. Now this square little pie could be a contender to go up against McDonald’s Apple Pie, and it’s certainly a bit bigger (and yes, we think those McDonald’s pies have shrunk since we were kids). So first off, a warning. UNLIKE a McDonald’s apple pie, it’s not served warm (you grab it in the bakery section). Now this is a SERIOUS faux pas, y’all.

HOWEVER, the dough is still flaky, although it seemed a bit dry. The filling has tender apples and a sweet cinnamon-y syrup, but you don’t get enough of it, in our opinion. There’s a lot more dough than there is filling, and again, that’s a miss for us. You do have some nice sugar crystals on the outside to add a bit of texture and crunch.

Needs more filling

So, yeah, it’s an apple pie. We wouldn’t travel all the way to Fort Wilderness for it, but if you’re staying there, it could satisfy that apple pie urge. To quote our reporter, it’s “nothing special, but gets the job done.”
