prettygoodwordpandowdy (pan-DOW-dee) - n., (chiefly New Eng.) a deep-dish apple pie or cobbler, usually sweetened with molasses or brown sugar, with a rich broken crust.
There are probably as many variations on this as there are cobblers in general -- early versions apparently were closer to a pudding than a pie. Origin of the name is unknown, first appearing in writing in 1805.
