I do not bake very often...but this turned out AWESOME. Served it at Thanksgiving and I will definately make this again. Very easy recipe to follow, and I used ready made pie crusts.

This pie was AMAZING. I didn't change a thing, and used my grandmother's old and delicious crust recipe. It turned out perfect. I'll definitely make this again!

This recipe is great, I have had nothing but rave reviews when making this pie, I made it during the holidays and also made and took to work, everyone commented about how wonderful it was. The only thing I have done after making the pie several times is to add approx 2 Tablespoons of carmel apple dip. It added to the flavor and family thought the taste enhanced the pie. I will continue to use this as my personal favorite apple pie ever.

This was very easy to make and very delish! The first time I made this pie, it came out too runny and sogged up my crust. So the next time I added a bit more flour to the mix and brushed the top crust with a lil cream and sprinkled turbinado sugar over it. It came out more syrup-ier and the crust had nice crunchy texture.

This was a great pie. Had an abundance of Gala apples which I usually don't bake with so, I cut back a little on the sugar and added a little more flour. Loved the way the crust came out with the sugar glaze. Will do this more often on other pies.

We followed this recipe to a "T". Although it looked beautiful, it wasn't very juicy and the spices were a little overwhelming. It was fairly good.

This pie is great! I've made it 3 times so far--each with a different kind of apple, all wonderful. I forgot the butter and turned out wonderful so haven't used it since.

I now live in England and wanted to make a traditional Thanksgiving dinner for my English friends. Of all the recipes for apple pie I searched for, this one looked the most familiar and was easy to make. I too added an extra cup of apples (English cooking apples)and used a deep dish pie plate. The first piece looked as good as the last. My friends raved about the pie the most!

Just a great all American apple pie,very similar to the one I've made for years using both white and brown sugars. Adjust the spices to your liking (I don't care for ginger in my apple pie and prefer a little less nutmeg) but you cannot go wrong with this recipe. Just a note to those who have had problems with the pie being runny...make sure you start your pie with room temperature apples. Also, you must let the pie cool before cutting to allow the juices to thicken.

Very juicy mixture, leading to a very tasty pie--though, perhaps, more kitchen clean-up than expected! A note for anyone (like myself) new to pie-baking: it's probably a good idea to cook this (or any fruit pie) on a baking sheet, or at least to put some foil underneath to catch spillage. Another remedy might be to add a little more flour than called for, but I wouldn't want to mess with the flavor of the pie itself, so I'll offer no measurements. All in all, delicious!

This pie looked perfect when it was done. I couldn't wait to taste it after thanksgiving dinner. I was so sad when we cut into it and the juices ran out into the pie plate. I found this pie much too runny, the cinnamon too strong, and the apples were still too firm. I followed the recipe exactly. Sorry.

I added one extra tablespoon of flour to the mixture because of the apples I chose (cortland) and did a lattice crust. It was great & looked very pretty!

What a yummy pie, and so very easy! I made it several times, changing the recipe a little each time before writing a review. I give it 5 Stars for the making eaxctly according to the recipe and also give it 5 Stars with minor modifications. (I really hate constantly reading certain reviews when the reviewer admits to not making it according to the recipe and then rates the recipe low based on their changes!! I mean, Duh! There should really be rules against doing that) Anyway, with my picky family, we preferred the crust brushed with milk and cinnamon. I also used the frozen premade crust made by Mrs. Smith, which after trying all of the premade crusts, that seems to be closest to my gram's homeade crust. Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe, it's a keeper!

This was my first attempt at making a pie. It was really easy to make, although it was a little too sweet for me. I'll try this again with a little less sugar next time.
