Simple and flavorful. I used Johnagold apples and had a nice heaping pie with great, unadulterated cinnamon taste! (I always add a little bit of nutmeg into whatever I make that has cinnamon in it to enhance the spice flavor.)

I followed this recipe exactly as written,it has too much cinnamon and not enough liquid. Too strong to enjoy, and I am a cinnamon fiend!! Very disappointing!

Rave, Rave, Rave. I made this for a friend who was visiting. I used some unknown apples off the tree in the yard. I used store pie crust, substituted nutmeg for cloves. I brushed the top with milk and sprinkled it with raw sugar. The first pie over cooked but was good, the second one was a picture and tasted like something from heaven. I have more apples sitting on the porch so this recipe will definitely be used over and over.

Everyone loved it. I used a mix of apples that we had from the orchard and our backyard. I didnt do the top crust, i made a crumble which was delicious...and nutmeg!

Very good easy recipe. This is the first apple pie I've ever made and I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. I used a mix of granny smith and gala apples. Will definitely make again!

This is the best apple pie I have ever made. I sliced the apples a little thicker, because my family likes them thicker. I also added a handful of raisins. Of course, the family likes vanilla ice cream with it, but I like chocolate ice cream with the pie.

All I can say is mmmmmmmmmmmmmm!! i used basic flaky pie crust recipe with this and my dad loved the pie!! I am only a teen, and this was my first pie, so u can see it was incredibly easy!! I did substitute cinnamon for the cloves, because i do not like cloves, and i did not use all of the cinnamon sugar, but instead sprinkled some on the top pie shell before putting the pie in the oven, which made the crust sweet and cinnamony as well as the amazing filling. If you like mushy apples in ur pie, use macintosh, if you like firmer tart apples, use granny smith (my preference)! Enjoy...........

This was my first time baking a homemade pie, and it turned out pretty darn good! I followed the directions pretty closely, but also made a few changes that other reviewers recommended: I rinsed the sliced apples with water to make them wet, then tossed them in the dry mixture which turned into a gooey,soft mixture; added 1/4 tsp. of vanilla extract to the filling; did the 1/3 c. of brown and 1/3 c. white sugar mix; 1/4 tsp. of nutmeg instead of the cloves; added a little bit more sugar and cinnamon because I like my pies sweet. I used the Pilsbury crusts because I was scared to make my own since I am pretty new at baking LOL Also brushed the top of the pie with an egg wash....it turned out pretty amazing, my bf loved it! The filling was a little thick, but I think it's because I had a slight accident with the flour. LOL Definately will make again, thanks for the awesome, easy recipe!

This was an excellent pie! I took one of the other rater's advice and added 2 tablespoons more of sugar and a bit more cinnamon. Also I didn't have nutmeg, so I left that out as well. Had it a la mode... Delicious!

I love this recipe. It's simple and gives you the quintessential apple pie. I do add about 1-2 teaspoons of fresh lemon juice to keep the apples from browning and for a fresher taste. I also use nutmeg instead of cloves since I think the latter is a bit overpowering for pie. I used the Basic Flaky Pie Crust from this site. This is my master apple pie recipe.

Great recipe, lots of flavor. I made 3 of these bad boys for Thanksgiving. Instead of sprinkling the dry mix over the apples, I mixed all apples and dry ingredients together, then spread between 3 pies. Turned out great and I received a lot of compliments!

Made this for Thanksgiving dinner and we were so full we didn't even cut it until the next day. I used half granny smith apples and half pink lady. It was a great mixture. The cloves go great with the cinnamon in this pie. Thanks for sharing.

This pie came out great! I omitted the clove because I have a aversion to the flavor but it was still delicious. I might try the lattice top next time.

I think it is much better to toss the apples in the sugar/spice/flour mix. This pie ended up with layers of plain apples, and two layers of cinnamon goo. Perhaps with a few slices of butter tossed on top under the crust it would have come out better, but this was not my favorite apple pie.

This pie was super tasty, easy to make. When adding sugar keep in mind if your apples are sweet, mine were not and more sugar would have made it better. I also added a couple tablespoons of butter to the the apples and stired the ingredients in rather than pooring them on top.
