Pixie Apple Pie

Taken all the way down to base materials, a batch of 3 Pixie Apple Pie is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Fermented Butter ×1, Golden Honey ×1 and Upland Wheat Flour ×1 — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 18 units, plus 34 crystals.

That bill outweighs 7,380 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 984 of the 1,058 Culinarian ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 13 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 21 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 21 Fire Crystal, 7 Fire Shard and 6 Water Crystal.

Every step is Culinarian work, from a Lv 53 intermediate up to the Lv 74 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

4 of the 5 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 1 comes from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Upland Wheat Flour has the widest use: 61 recipes call for it, all of them Culinarian recipes.
