LOVED the spicing, but WOW is this thing too sweet! I cut the sugar back to 1 1/4 c and it was STILL too sweet. Unless you are using REALLY tart apples the sugar needs to be not more than 1 cup total in my opinion. We found it almost too sweet to eat.

This was only an ok recipe. I thought the two cups of sugar was too much and I added it dubiously...and I was right. I didn't use especially tart apples, but even had I done that, this would have been too sweet. Next time, if I make this again (because I loved the mix of spices...the flavor was excellent there)I will cut the sugar back to no more than 1 1/4 cups. I thought the addition of coriander was interesting; it added a hint of a lemony note to the flavor. But there again, it was nearly overpowered by the sweetness. If you wanted to keep the sugar the same, this would probably be the kind of pie that is good cut with a slice of fresh cheddar cheese.

Great taste, but way too sweet. I'll make it again, but cut the sugars down.

Outstanding pie! Make it and watch it disappear. I've used Marie Callendar's frozen deep dish pie crust and had great results. One caveat: make sure to put the pie on a foil covered pan when you bake it - the juice has a tendency to seep out and carmelise.

This was the first apple pie that I was able to make, and have it be a success! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
