If you think New York’s apple cider donuts cannot be beat, the rest of America agrees with you.
A fun new survey of the top fall treats in the country is shining the spotlight on the Empire State because one of its signature snacks is officially among the nation’s best.
Wealth of Geeks launched the survey and asked some of the nation’s biggest foodies to weigh in on the states with the best fall treats.
Basically, they wanted to find out which state makes the best pumpkin pie, apple cider donut, and other fall-famous delicacies.

Illinois was found to be #1 with pumpkin pie and also topped this year’s roundup. Apparently the state has a bountiful pumpkin harvest and that allows residents to whip up the freshest, and most delicious desserts.
Second was the State of Texas, with survey takers saying chilli from there is second to none. Once the weather turns cool and football returns to television, Texans start dishing out the chilli to their many tailgates, cookoffs, and family dinners.
Rounding out the top three was Alabama, which was voted to have the best pecan pie in the entire country. The state has abundant pecan orchards and is home to many families that use recipes that date back generations.

New York appeared sixth on the list, with the nation saying the Empire State makes the best apple cider donuts in the country.
This honor was given to us because of our countless apple orchards and apple cider mills that proudly serve their own recipe of the favorite fall treat.
Example: North Star Orchards in Westmoreland and Clinton Cider Mill in Clinton have been making their own donuts for decades. While both are extremely tasty, they are also very different in their own special way.

But those who did weigh in said apple cider donuts are the perfect treat to snack on when visiting pumpkin patches and orchards, which is why they are a top fall dish.
