The main dough conditioner in McDonald's Apple Pies is L-cysteine. L-cysteine is an amino acid used to soften dough and extend shelf life. While it can be made synthetically, it is often extracted from natural protein sources like duck feathers, hog hair, and human hair.

They switched from the classic crisp fried pies to baked 34 years ago. And the world was never the same.

I prefer the baked one because i feel like the fried one enhances the crust more whereas the baked gives more of the apple filling. Everyone’s different.

Did you haver to let it cool down for 30 minutes? My recollection was the pie was hot as Lava when you first got it.
