simple, which i like. One of my first attempts at apple pie. The flavor was very good, however a bit runny if eating hot. Thickens when cooled. Friend suggested i coat the apples with flour before baking. will make this one again

Use brown sugar, add 1/2 tsp vanilla, use splash of lemon juice, add 3 TBLS flour to the sugar mixture, and add a few shakes of nutmeg and cloves.

I love this pie recipe. I make sure when making it, I use a lard pie crust recipe. There is no substitute! Always remember to brush the top crust with egg to give it that golden brown look, and sprinkle a little turbinado sugar on top right as it comes out of the oven.

This recipe is super easy and come out with delicious apple pie! I followed other reviewers and put a little flour in the mixture to make sure it doesn't get soupy and sometimes add some brown sugar to the mix as well!

This was the first apple pie I have ever made, and it is delicious!! Mixed the cinnamon sugar with the apples, then added the nutmeg then put them in the pie shell. Did the egg wash and sprinkled sugar on the lattice, made it nice and brown and a little sweet...great recipe!

I sprinkled some lemon juice over the apples to keep them from turning brown and placed them in a large bowl and tossed with the rest of ingredients. I did add two Tbls. flour to the sugar mixture but wished I had added more as the sauce was still very juicy, so much so that it made the bottom crust taste doughy. I will make this again but I will add more flour to the mixture.

Delicious and sweet without being too sweet. Only change I made to original recipe is I added 1/4 tsp nutmeg. My apples didn't get done enough in the time specified, so I kept the pie in for an additional 30 min. Something seemed amiss with the liquid; I didn't see the pie bubbling like I'm used to, but it may have been my apples or oven. At any rate, it was a great tasting pie, and even better the next day reheated and topped with vanilla ice cream.

My neighbor has an apple tree that drops apples between both our yards. I didn't realize they were not crab apples until her grown sons told me we could eat them! So, I discovered this recipe and made our weight in apple pies last year! This is fabulous and is now my family's new favorite of all my dessert pies. If I recall, mine turned out a bit watery, so I have to work on that this year. My husband and I peel and slice together, then I toss the apples with sugar and cinnamon in a large bowl before putting them into the pie shell. I also dust the inside of the pie shell with sugar-cinnamon-flour mixture before laying out the apples in our favorite spiral pattern. I alternate between the full crust with decorative slits with shape cutouts and the basket weave. Either way it's topped and decorated, it's a fabulous recipe that makes mouths happy! I highly recommend this awesome classic apple pie!

My pie turned out too dry. It might have been the apples I used but I will surely alter the recipe next time.

I am 42 and this is the first apple pie I have ever made. And the second completely homemade pie, crust and all. I followed some of the other suggestions to add flour to the sugar/cinnamon mixture and added some fresh squeezed lemon juice to the apples. Instead of regular cinnamon I used a blend of cinnamon and other spices I bought from Penzy's called Apple Pie. I baked for 10 min. at 450, and then 35 minutes at 370 and it came out just fine. My teenagers and husband said it tasted better than my mother-in-laws. I also used the Never Fail Pie crust II, the recipe is for 16 servings which is 2 double crusts. I adjusted for one pie, but put in for 10 servings. I'd rather have a little left over pie crust. I also did a lattice top on this pie - SO EASY, and it looks so pretty too. Much better than the traditional top. I love making pies now, I told my family I am making one a week for them!

I had never made a pie before so I was quite apprehensive about choosing from the hundreds of recipes on this site. However, my aunt once told me "choose the simplest". It was so easy, turned out great, and the taste was outstanding. I did add nutmeg just because I love the taste of it, also 1/2 c brown sugar and the rest white, and lastly 2 Tbsp of flour, although I suggest adding 3-4 because mine was almost on the too runny side. I did have problems with the top layer of apples being dry for the juices did not quite reach them. I am not quite sure what I did to cause that but, hey, it's my first pie. Honestly, it was one of the best pies I've ever tasted (if I do say so myself).

FANTASTIC! I am always nervous to alter recipes, but everything I did made this pie the BEST apple pie I have ever eaten! This was my first attempt at fresh apple pie...I added 2 TBSP of flour, changed the sugar to 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, added a cap full of vanilla and sprinkled in nutmeg. I used granny smith apples, which gave this pie the best, slightly tart flavor!! I cooked it for 45 mins as well!! I WILL KEEP THIS RECIPE FOREVER!
