Bring Your Best Pie To Be Judged In Summit Sunday

SUMMIT, NJ - Dutch apple, caramel apple nut, cranberry apple, apple crumb and more are welcome as amateur bakers are invited to bring their best apple pie to Summit Downtown, Inc. (SDI) to participate in the Annual Apple Pie Contest at the Summit Farmers Market on Sunday.

Entries must be there by 10:45 a.m. and all components of the pie must be made from scratch, organizers said. No canned fillings or premade crusts are allowed. All entrants must bring a copy of their recipe to the contest with them.

Those interested can pre-register here, but walks-ins are always welcomed. Judging will begin at 11 a.m. and after the pies are judged, the public will be able to sample them.

Judges will have the challenging task of rating each of the pies on filling, crust and appearance. Dylan Baker is a co-owner of the Summit House, a seasonal American restaurant and bar in downtown, SDI Trustees Pat Angelo (General Manager of The Committed Pig) and Mayor Nora Radest complete the panel of judges.

Winners will receive “Summit Farmers Market Fun Money” that can be spent at the market and the winning recipes will be shared in the Summit Farmers Market newsletter and on social media.

The market is brought to the public by Summit Downtown, Inc. and is open every Sunday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. through Nov. 18. It is located in Park and Shop Lot #2, at the corner of DeForest Avenue and Maple Street. All downtown parking is free on Sundays, with convenient parking available on-street, in Park & Shop Lots #1 and 3, and the K Lot, located behind CVS off Maple Street.
