I LOVE THIS RECIPE!! The topping is awesome! I did a banana apple pie cause I didn't have enough apple. It tasted great! Probably the best pie I ever made. The only thing I did different was the way I cooked the apple mixture. I mixed all the ingredients like it says but instead of putting it in the pie crust and cooking it in the oven I cooked the apples in a pan.Not for very long but enough so that they were a little tender and then I added the streusel part. It turned out awesome and easier for me LOL! This is definetly my thanksgiving/christmas apple pie recipe!Thanks for posting it!

This recipe was great! I used my sister's pie crust recipe for the crust, whih is pretty simple, just flour, butter, and ice cold water. I also double layered the top crust by placing a regular pie crust on top of the streusel topping. Because I did that it took a little longer to cook, but everyone at home and at work loved it! I definitely plan a repeat for the holidays. Plus, be sure to put a baking pan underneath the pie pan to catch an overflow of filling! :)

I received numerous compliments on this pie and don't think I will ever make a different recipe. I use 3 Granny Smith Apples, 1 Jonagold, 1 Cortland, and 1 Gala. I read others tips and brushed the pie crust with an egg white, then baked for 5 minutes at 400 degrees before adding the pie filling. For the pie filling, I increased the amount of flour to 1/4 cup. For the first 10 minutes of baking, I baked the pie on the lowest rack. Otherwise followed the recipe to a tee!!! So good!

One of the best apple pies I've ever tasted, and the first I've ever made myself! Love, love, love this recipe! I used Honeycrisp apples, 5 big ones, turned out lovely! Thank you for submitting it!

The pie itself is wonderful. I wasn't too crazy about the topping, however. It turned out dry and rather hard, but did soften a bit after a couple days covered in the refrigerator.

This was a great recipe to get things started. I ended up not using the allspice and 1/2 the nutmeg in the filling while adding 2TBSP of tapioca. I also increased the amount of brown sugar to 1/2 cup. I have heard nothing but great things when I serve this pie (I am not personally a fan of apple pie) and have been requested to enter a pie contest.

I bake pies frequently, and was visiting my daughter. So I looked up this recipe, as her husband likes dutch apple pie. Most other reviewers gave this recipe a good rating. After making the pie and having to throw it away, because the crust was nicely browned on the edges but upon cutting the bottom crust was not even cooked. the whole pie was ruined. I came back to your site and read the other reviews. Everyone gave it 4 or 5 stars but said that the bottom crust did not cook, so they either did not freeze the crust or baked it longer. It is ridiculous to give a recipe a good rating if following the recipe as written gives a bad result.

This was a good recipe -- easy to follow, beautiful presentation etc. I got many compliments on the pie, and did feel like a hot shot when people asked where I bought it. I gave this recipe 4 stars because like other reviewers mentioned, the addition of the allspice was a nice added depth of flavor, but maybe a little too heavy for my taste. I will definitely make this recipe again, just easing back on the allspice a bit.

This is a GREAT pie! I made my own crust and I used the suggestions and brushed with an egg wash and put it into the fridge while i was preparing the apples. I did not bake it. It really made a difference. I also cooked it covered for almost 1 hour. I like my apples really soft and it cooks away the liquid. Also, I baked it on my lowest rack in a glass pan and the crust was perfect.

GO AHEAD AND PLAN ON MAKING 2 PIES AT ONCE IF YOU WANT MORE THAN 1 PIECE! ITS EXCELLENT! ONLY RECIPE I WILL USE FOR NOW ON..I did do a little different: Used 10 inch deep dish frozen pie crust and baked 10 min in 300 degree oven..used about 7 cups apples..increased flour/sugar little bit..no allspice or lemon zest..it was so good that I have to make it again 4 days later! I really pushed the apples down and piled the crumb mixture..looked like alot until it cooled and it was wonderful.

I'm not a fan of apple pie, but I make it for my husband and kids. This recipe was so good I will not make it any other way now. It was a combination of apple pie and apple crisp. Very yummy!!!

After picking some fresh apples, I decided to try this recipe. This was so good and did not last long enough for seconds. I made the following changes after reading reviews 1: used frozen pie shell, and brushed it with an egg white. Bake it for 5-10 minutes, then proceeded with recipe. 2: Increased flour for pie filling to an even 1/4 cup. 3:Omitted lemon peel/zest. 4: using 'quick cooking' oats. Other than that, followed the recipe. Everyone LOVED this...I will be making it again for thanksgiving!
