I'm not a big apple pie fan, but my husband is, and we both LOVED this pie. He took it to work, and a coworker even commented that it "looked professional" HA! The custard went really well with the apples. I tried this both cold and warm and both were great, though warm is better. And because the custard added extra richness, it didn't need ice cream! The only thing I would change is to decrease the sugar in the custard some, but otherwise great. I'll definitely make this again.

Excellent crust, flaky and buttery. I didn't have enough shortening, so I used 1/2 shortening and 1/2 butter. Really, this was the easiest crust to make. I tried the other crust that had higher ratings on this site in numbers, but this was easier to make and tastier. I didn't roll out the bottom crust, just patted it into the pie pan, but had to roll out the top crust in order to place it on top. This is my go to recipe for crust now! Thanks!!

These were a bit dry and hard, I probably cooked them longer than needed. The taste was good, but not good enough for me to try this one again.
