Who knew that hidden at the corner of FM146 was one of the best bakeries in Texas? Well now I know, and I'm here to tell you, stop in for the pie or cookies or bars. You will not be disappointed. read more

This place is a hidden jewel, hole in the wall, make you wanna smack your kid in the back of the head for not tellin you to pull over, slice of Heaven. No intensions of going there whatsoever. We were on our way to Salt Lick. We made a U-turn and so darn glad we did. Ordered a bunch of goodies to take with us. Glad we didn't try anything until we got home because I probably would have bought way more then my poor pancreas could handle. LOL. Can't wait to go back. read more

We will drop in every trip to Austin to grab some sweet treats and support this local gem!!! read more

5 stars All the way their food is amazing including the butter bars, apple muffins, and chocolate cake, everything is amazing we go about once a week or every other week. read more

Bought a sampler box of dessert bars, tarts and of course apple cake for a group dinner party. Everyone at the party raved about how tasty each treat was. We had a terrible time trying to pick the best. I think the pecan bars were the top choice but not a dud in the box. The owner was very helpful in picking items for the dessert box. I wish I lived close enough to visit again. read more

Fantastic baked goods and you have to leave with an apple pie for your family and pick up another for your friends.

On a recent visit to Blanco, stopped in to try this lovely bakery. Byron and I purchased several items including mini pecan pie, mini chocolate cream pie, butter bar and two cookies. All were nicely sized portions and tasted so yummy! The kitchen was clean, the owner was upfront and friendly and this little bakery made a positive impression on this Baker! Give it a try! read more

We couldn't help stopping at The Deutsch Apple on Saturday afternoon on our way back to Austin from Lost Maples. Some miscommunication with Google Maps took us on an alternate route, and even though we were in a rush to get back in time for a wedding, this place looked too adorable not to go into. It's got lots of Texas and apple-themed signage that you can't miss. The man who was working the counter said that he had recently bought the place from the previous owners and insisted on giving us a free apple muffin even though we wanted to pay him to help support the business. The muffin was awesome, as was the chocolate chip pecan cookie that we also bought. He was so nice and friendly, and embodied the small town bakery spirit. This place gets 5 golden apples from us. We hope that many more appletastic reviews will follow! read more

Indeed, I have to admit that the babycakes (AKA "apple pecan cakes") sold at the Deutsch Apple are highly addictive ... Sweet loaves of buttery goodness! Add a good cup of coffee and the culinary experience is indescribable. Or should I say indescribably delicious? My wife and I ordered a few of them one holiday season, with a couple of the pound-cake sized treats specially reserved for some distant relatives. Unfortunately, one (or perhaps it was more) of those tasty little beauties didn't make it to its intended recipient. But holiday cheer prevailed, nonetheless: Instead of becoming a gift for family, the babycake became a gift for my stomach. Yes, babycakes are the Achllle's heel of any diet, a Texas Hill Country treasure that you will find in abundance at the Deutsch Apple (if you happen to get there early or reserve them in advance) . Just be sure to stock up on enough to satisfy YOUR cravings, and don't promise any to your friends ... or family. read more

Hooray. I was finally able to make it to The Deutsch Apple when it was open. They were out of apple pies, but I was in the mood for apple cake anyway - which was a big hit at the Christmas dinner that I took it to. I also bought some rugelach (?) which were excellent - right soft texture and the filling was a perfect blend of nuts, cinnamon and brown sugar. And to round things out, I bought a small jar of pickles that I finished off in one sitting when I got home. The person at the counter was very helpful, and she threw in an apple muffin so I could compare it to the cake. I'm a fan, but I would easily go broke if I stopped there all of the time. (the next day) I had the apple muffin this morning and give it 5*****. It was obviously made with quality ingredients - like real butter and the perfect blend of apples, nuts and not-to-many raisins (thankfully) - and love. (the 4 **** rating is -1* for the prices being higher than I'd like). read more

See all

Just driving by and decided to stop on our little road triple. Apple pecan muffin- I need like 5 more of these right now. Fabulous! Loved the Apple cake also. So sad this is 3 hours away read more

What a wonderful find on our road trip home. Apple pecan muffins and cookies are great! Sausage and cheese kolaches for days! Super friendly owner! read more

The...best...apple...pie...ever. You can order a frozen one. You get instructions on how to warm it. Be sure to ask what an egg wash is if you don't know. Make certain you leave with the little thing of cinnamon and sugar. Do exactly what she tells you to do and YOWZA! It was the best apple pie I've ever had. Went back this weekend to get a cherry pie and a blackberry pie. They don't come frozen so our crew was forced to begin to eat pie the same day. Started with cherry; fought over who got the part of the pie that was not immediately consumed. As to the blackberry pie, I'm not sharing with anyone except my wife and even then, she'll get smaller pieces than me. Man, this place knows how to do pie. read more

Nice pit stop if you are near Real Ale brewery! Small quaint store with tasty pastries. Service was great. There is a large drop off from the road to one of the parking sides...be careful if you have a low car. read more

This place is a gem. I was coming from Austin , headed to Spring Branch and I came across this bakery in the middle of nowhere! So naturally I had to stop and get some goodies. I tried the Snicker doodle cookie, chocolate chip cookie and apple muffin . Now, I live about an hour and 15 minutes from this place ...and will have no problem driving there to get some great sweets! Try it...you won't regret it! read more

stopped in after flying into SA. when I got there around 11:30 they had three large pies available, some slices in the cooler, and after the couple in front of me left, were down to 1 muffin. well, at least my decisions would be easier to make than expected. I left with one lg apple pie with crumble topping ($21), and an apple pecan muffin. The pie was still warm and filled my car with the most amazing smell, and when we finally cut into it later there were awesomely large cubes of apple, great flavour, and that pecan crumble made it exponentially better. Friendly staff, though not exactly helpful. They seemed to just expect people to know exactly what they wanted to order and didn't really share anything with me, or tell me much about any of the products or what else was available.. looking back I don't think I even got any hello/recognition walking into the store... but the pie was so good I might have to make a stop in here every time I'm in the area. (they also sell pickles, relish, jams - but no one seemed to really walk in that part of the store) read more

Deutsch Apple Bakery - apple pie with crumble topping - Bakeries Near Me - Blanco, Texas

My friend and I stopped by The Deutsch Apple Bakery after our tour of Real Ale Brewing, Co. and on our way back to San Antonio. I went into the bakery at about 4:15 (and this is important to note). Although the two women behind the counter were very helpful, they were ready to close shop for the day. However, when I looked at the display case behind the counter, I understood why they were ready to go home. There was nothing left! The store hours are 8 AM to 4:30 PM M-F (and 8AM to 4PM on Saturday), but they do close early if there is nothing left (kind of like when I went). When I got to the counter, all that was left in the case were two apple pies (yummy!), three apple pecan muffins (I bought two), and one oatmeal cranberry cookie. The girl behind the counter told me that this particular Friday had been a very busy day for them (probably because of Memorial Day 2010...). But, on to the important stuff, the food! The apple pecan muffins were very good. The cake is not too dense and not too fluffy, just right. I would have liked more apples, but overall they were very good muffins! I don't know if the muffins would ruin my diet as Michael W. posted, but they were a very good snack after an afternoon of beer tasting. I also bought an apple pecan cake to take home. The Deutsch Apple is famous for their praline-dipped apple pecan cakes, or so the box says. After having a slice, I can attest that the cake is "incomparably satisfying"! I love apples, I love pecans, and I love pralines. Great! Wonderful! Tiny down side: The cakes are a bit expensive. My total for two apple pecan muffins ($1.95 each), one bottled water ($1.50), and one apple pecan cake was just over $22. That's right, the cake is about $16. No, it's not an 8x8 or a 9x9 or a round of either size. The apple pecan cake that I bought was a regular-sized loaf. However, I still think it was a good purchase. read more

Amazing, charming bakery. Friendly husband/wife owners who strive to make it the best experience. Everything we had was fresh and delicious! The lemon blueberry scone was unbelievable!!! read more

Deutsch Apple Bakery - The lemon blueberry scone was unbelievable!!! - Bakeries Near Me - Blanco, Texas

The apple muffins here are amazing. Utterly fantastic. Mouthwateringly good. Drool-worthy, I might say. The blueberry scones, not so much--sweet, but no discernable flavor to the blueberries. Especially after trying Michigan blueberries at the peak of their season! read more

One of the best Cherry Pies I ever ate. Beautiful crust work and delicious!!

The peanut butter cookie was great! It was very crummy and buttery. One of the best cookies I've had. The apple butter is very delicious. Will be going back real soon. read more

We were passing through and stopped because it looked homey, exactly like my grandmothers house. Took a cranberry orange scone and three apple muffins to go. DELICIOUS! Popped in microwave and snacked next couple of days! read more

As good as it gets. I feel the love baked right into every pie. Dawn, the owner, is always smiling...cheerful and extremely knowledgeable. After a few visits, my mouth starts drooling like Pavlov's dog just driving by the place. Highly recommended. read more

I stopped in to see what they had in this bakery on my way to work. I bought a kolachi and a cherry danish with cream cheese on top. It was the best that I have eaten in a long time . The staff was very considerate and helped me decide. I asked to see the manager and thank her for her delicious baked goods. She was so courteous and delightful to chat with. I will return there many more times. read more

This is a wonderful bakery. They have so many delicious things to choose from. The apple pies are the best I have ever had. I always have such a hard time choosing what to get because everything is so good. They recently opened a small gift shop that is so cute. The staff is friendly and so willing to help you. Can't wait to go back. The best bakery in this area by far. Worth a visit . read more

They were out of the apple muffins by the time we got there but the apple loaf was just as good!! Delicious!

Oh so good!! We got a bunch of different goodies. Their specialty, apple muffins with caramel glaze are as good as every other review said they were. Therefore, we left with a loaf of the same stuff! Scone and kolache were wonderful. We also brought home two slices of cheesecake: one apple crumble flavor, the other with chocolate ganache and a brownie crust. We can't wait to eat them! Next time we are close by, we'll be back!!! read more

Stopped by while camping in Pedernales State Park. This girl bakes better pies than my Mom and aunties! They were wonderful bakers and I've never had better than theirs til now. The small cherry pies were perfect with just the right amount of tart and not overly sweet. But the crust.....the absolute best! Can't wait to go back! Such friendly service...I think she said she is a relatively new owner. Great job! read more

Love this place! I make the stop here every time I'm in the area. My family loves our traditional deutsch apple stop! Biggest tip- TRY EVERYTHING! read more

Had apple muffins and scones so far, very good! Hope to someday try some of their pie.

10/10 on their apple cake loaves and muffins. Kind genuine service, quaint little shop, and their baked goods speak for themselves. Have them heat up your muffin if you want it extra special :) Thanks Dawn! read more

This place is awesome and the staff is so sweet! The pastries and pies were delicious! It's is a great meeting place for dessert and relaxation. read more

The apple cake is the best I've ever had--moist, with layers of tender tangy apples and crowned with a praline pecan glaze. The bakers take the cakes hot from the oven and dip them into hot brown-sugar-butter-pecan glaze, which sinks into the cake and crackles across the surface. It was hard to stop at one piece. read more

The Deutsch Apple has been under new ownership for about a year and a half. We love their fresh, to die for pies. I ordered several during the holiday season and everyone loved the flaky crust. I look forward to having another soon! read more
