Hold up, there’s a new sweet treat at Dunkin’ that’s flying under the radar, and yes, it’s accidentally VEGAN! Introducing the Braided Apple Pie, a warm, flaky, fruit-filled pastry that just so happens to be totally dairy and egg-free.
We spotted this one recently and had to do a double take. A bakery-style hand pie at Dunkin’ with no animal ingredients? Yes, please.
🍏 So What is the Braided Apple Pie?
Think of it as a mini hand-held pie situation with a golden, braided-style crust and a gooey apple filling inside. It’s lightly glazed on top, but there’s no dairy or eggs in the dough or the topping. (We double-checked the ingredients to be sure!)
It’s giving cozy autumn vibes in the summer, and honestly, we’re not mad about it.

✅ Accidentally Vegan, Here’s What That Means To Me
The Braided Apple Pie isn’t marketed as vegan, but according to the ingredient list, it doesn’t contain any animal-derived ingredients. That makes it a great option for anyone who’s plant-based, dairy-free, or just avoiding eggs.
We always recommend checking the ingredient list at your local store in case of regional variations, but so far, this one looks like a go!
💬 Final Thoughts
We love a good accidental vegan win, especially from a major chain like Dunkin’. The Braided Apple Pie is a sweet surprise that proves you don’t always have to search far and wide for plant-based options.

Your apple braided pie is the best addition to your menu!!! I had it for the first time and loved it!!! Unfortunately, they did not have it the next day and was told they don’t carry it. I’m hoping they start carrying it again.!!! (Dunkin, Pine Island & 5th Street in Plantation FL
I just bought a couple….. they are… idk a guess a nice treat but it’s no donut that’s for sure… too bad because vegan donuts are easy to make …..these just taste like one of those apple twists or whatever like those mini ones ? This is a big version of those
