Heavenly Fillings Home-Baked Pies Where did the term Pie come from? Really, no one knows. A structure designed to hold its content securely as a bowl.

The best source comes from the Oxford English Dictionary:



The origin for the word pie is uncertain and that no further related word is known outside English. It suggests that the word is identical in form to the same word meaning ‘magpie’ which is held by many to have been in some way derived from the connected word. The connection is that is that a pie has contents of have natural fillings li

ke fruit and vegetables, similar to the magpie colorful odds and ends picked to adorn its nest. Supporting the magpie idea - Without its filling a pie resembles a bird’s nest, circular in form, a flat bottom with raised sides. A French connection can be made with the pie word. The English language was different after the Normans invaded in 1066 and a whole lot of pie-words appear in French and English to suggest similar meanings – like the tart and tourte. The French word pate comes from the same root as pastry which is from various themes of flour and water. The pie, a pastry wrapped food got its name from this. http://www.everythingpies.com/history-of-pie.html
