I use another recipe I have had for years but you can no longer use paper bags as they are now recycled and the bag will burn. So I am going to try parchment paper as I think that is what makes the pie so good in covering it up. This is a very good recipe. Mary

Omgee! I'm 30 something years old & I've never made a pie from scratch!! It's always been store bought. I was forsure thinking I'd mess this up, but I was super surprised to see how non confusing this was!! It came out great!! I was soo happy! And my friends loved it & so did my husband!! I'll definitely make this again! Thanks Mamadellie!

I used my my Mom's recipe, but baked it in the brown bag. I will never go back to baking it without! It bakes perfectly.

I'm glad I found this recipe! I go to a local farmer's stand and they are famous for the apple pie baked in a brown paper bag which is quite costly! I always have to cook my apples down after slicing them because my boyfriend doesn't like the texture of apples and wants them soft instead of crunchy and it still turns out great!

An interesting baking method, which I'll use again. Average flavor. Crumb topping was not at all crumbly.

I have made this pie on many occassions. I use a large Reynolds Turkey roasting bag to put my pie in. I don't have to worry about fire and I close the bag using the twisty tie. The bag is not to touch the top of teh pie.

This Apple Pie is amazing. . and the paper bag really works!! I made several of these last year with the apples from our apple trees. The neighbors enjoyed the pie as much as we did!!!

This made an excellent pie. I didn't cook it in parchment paper or a brown paper bag, but it still came out well.

Oh - my - gosh, Mamadellie!! I have made three different apple pies over the weekend (all from the website) and I must say, yours gets five stars! The ladies at church voted on your pie the most often and it was the first to go! Congrats, and thank you for this recipe, which I have been looking for for the last ten years because when my grandmammy died, her recipes died with her...and this was one of them. Thank you!!
