The butter content in the pie crust accounts for about 1/5 of the calories, and the pieâs two sources of sugar, granulated sugar and corn syrup, make up the rest of the calories. Add in a heaping dollop, or two tablespoons, of whipped cream for another 100 calories to the already 500 calorie slice of pie. Apple Pie is next on the list for being not-so-great for your waistline. A typical slice accounts for about 360 calories â mainly from double-crust.
