This apple pie is a *keeper*. Filling turned out really good, I only used six granny smith apples and mixed them into the mix before pouring into the pastry. Only thing I changed in this recipe was just a sprinkle of cloves and nutmeg but used the full measure of cinnamon. Thanks for a tasty applie pie recipe!

The pie filling turned out great! I didn't use the cloves and only used about a teaspoon of cinnamon.

Pie turned out great. The family loves it...I'm gonna grab some whipped cream to eat with it before it's all gone. Made it with crab apples and not the GS.

The idea of pouring dry ingredients on top of apples already in the crust is not a good one. The end taste is too granular. I did not like it at all.

tasteless except for the overpowering clove taste. Cloves go well with apples, but I don't think it belongs in a pie.

This recipe is so easy. I love that there was no pre-cooking of the apples. Really enjoyed the cinnamony (is that a word?) flavour. 1 tip - buy yourself a good apple corer and peeler, took me about 7 minutes, pancakes take longer than that!

This was my first apple pie and it turned out pretty good! I thought the cloves were a bit much, but others said it was nice and spicy. I probably won't try making another apple pie until I get a peeler/corer...that was a lot of work!

I did use 8 apples, but I bought the bagged ones, not bulk, which are usually smaller. I just put all of the ingredients in a bowl and mixed them together before pouring into the crust. Simple, and it worked. Also added a dash of nutmeg. I used frozen crusts, and for the top, I cut out a quickie flower design while it was still in the pan (6 teardrop shapes, with points toward each other). The cinnamon flavor was a little strong. I may search for ideas to tweak the recipe in the future.

Wonderful pie. Even my "non apple pie" friends loved it. I did mix my apples with the sugar mixture before I put them in the pie.

This was the first time attempting to make a pie and this is the easiest and it tasted great. I used a pie crust recipe from Betty Croker which was really good too. I am not at all an expert on baking, and I am not a pie eater, but this pie was really light and not too sweet. Loved it.

This is the first homemade pie I ever attempted to make, and the recipe was WONDERFUL. The pie turned out great. I rolled the apple slices in the sugar mixture (instead of sprinkling the mixture onto the apples) in order to make sure I coated all the apples evenly. This was our Thanksgiving dessert, and it received rave reviews! Thanks for this recipe!

Sorry to say this did not work well for me at all--far, far too dry. Regrettably, I made a lattice top and everything. :( Both husband and I agree it's not one I'll make again. I'm suprised because it was so well reviewed.

This is the first time I've ever baked and fortunately chanced upon this simple recipe. The site wisely used this for its step-by-step tutorial; even the crust recipe was superb! As a first-timer, it took me 3hrs to assemble the pies. Of the 15 family members who tasted it, only 3 commented that the cloves was a bit overpowering. Everybody else loved the simple yet hearty apple pie. By the way, the recommended 8pcs of apples were enough to fill up two 8" pie pans. The praises I got were very encouraging -- I'll try something harder next weekend!
