This was my first time making apple pie. I followed the recipe except I used a frozen pie crust. 5 apples did not fit in the deep dish crust- I had some left over. Also, while mine came out good, it did not look like the photo (the butter/flour/sugar mixture seemed to melt into the pie rather than staying on top). It is a tarter type apple pie, but both my husband and I enjoyed it.

I doubled the top-crust and added some caramel pieces and it was great!! I also used Honeycomb apples instead, I think they make a better pie.

I bought a gluten free frozen pie crust and used a gluten free flour mix to make the topping (our house has special diet needs) and to my surprise and delight this still tasted fantastic!! My boyfriend was so excited and our guests couldn't even tell the difference.

Wonderfully delicious!! My father (who hates cooked fruit) loved this recipe. I used a 100 year old crust and it tasted perfect.

I grew up in Pennsylvania, where dutch cooking is big and in our blood. When I made this pie it reminded me so much of Lancaster County and the good amish market cooking! I did not use parchment paper, didn't seem necessary, and it turned out great anyway. My boyfriend ate so much of this he made himself sick and will never eat it again, that is unfortunate, so don't get out of hand because it is so delicious!

I made this pie last Thanksgiving, and it was DELICIOUS. I took it to a dessert get together at our friends house and the entire pie was gone within half an hour. Luckily, I made two so I could have an extra at home :) A note: Don't cut up the topping mixture too much or it doesn't get that good crumble like a dutch apple pie is supposed to have. With the first pie I mixed the topping too much and that's what happened - the mixture was too smooth and baked into a smooth top. The second one I didn't mix up the mixture as much and the topping was great. Also, I added caramel ice cream topping sauce, drizzled over the apples before putting on the topping - AMAZING. I'm not sure if it was the caramels fault, but the filling was a little bit more runny than I'd like, so next time I may add more flour to thicken it up. Also, the apples were a little more crunchy than I'd like, so I would also recommend baking for just a little longer. I didn't have any parchment paper so I skipped it and they still came out great :)

This was the best tasting apple pie that I have made. I did subsitute McIntosh apples. It was a hit at my husbands birthday party and per his request he wanted pie vs cake. Thank you for sharing the recipe.

This recipe was quite tastey - I thought it was a tad sweet, and could have used more cinnamon, though. I also think that the topping needs to be doubled, because it just didn't seem like enough. I hate to admit that I'm not sure what kind of apples I used (my husband bought a TON because they were on sale for something like 25 cents a pound) so that may have contributed to the sweetness (over Granny Smith). The crust I made was also too thick (not the fault of this recipe) so I can't wait to try this again soon, with the GS apples, a store bought crust, and double the topping. Thanks for posting it!

The recipe amount ended up making two pies instead of one. Also, we had to take it out of the oven before the time was up because the peaks were starting to burn.

Over all I thought this pie was good, but the only problem that I did have was if you don't us the paper that it suggest then the edges of the pie burn. I also only cooked mine for 50 mins. Another idea would be to cook the pie about half way and then put tinfoil around the edges to help them not burn. Other than that this pie was d-lish.

This pie was absolutely delicious! One thing I found wrong with the instructions however- 1 hour is a bit too long. I put it down to 50 minutes because if I cooked it any longer it would burn. Also I left out the lemon juice. I could not imagine that in a pie.

I've made this twice, first time I did not use the parchment paper and the edges were over cooked, second time I used the paper and it was much better with a golden color. I used splenda in place of the sugar and added just a dash of nutmeg also.

Excellent pie! I didn't use the parchment paper, instead I lowered the heat to 400* for one hour. This pie has a perfect blend between tart and sweet. I will use this recipe over and over I'm sure. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

This pie is incredible!! Although I don't wrap it in parchment paper, it's still the most delicious apple pie my family has ever tried. I received many compliments after making this at Thanksgiving this year. Considering my husband's mother is quite the baker, I know this is a testament to the trying a pie based on the reviews that were written on your site. Thank you! mpliments at my Thanksgiving meal

Never having made a pie with a topping, I was unsure how to put the topping on. It was very sticky and I kind of just globbed it on there the best I could. It looked messy but was DELICIOUS!

This pie was DELICIOUS! I used another recipe for crust (the baking powder one here on All Recipes), and the crust was just pretty good. The filling and topping were simply out of this world delicious! I used 4 granny smith apples and one pippin, and added extra cinnamon (on accident, but it worked out well). Otherwise, I followed the directions as stated.

I love this recipe! It's easy and one of the best pies I have tried/made. I tweaked a few things. I used 6 Macintosh apples, added 2T. more sugar to the apples, and to the topping I added 1t. of allspice - I like the holidays spicey. It was gone so fast I have to make another.
