Grandma Ople's Apple Pie

“Tired of ordinary old apple pie? Well this fabulous recipe adds a delicious twist to the apply classic. Sliced, unadorned apples are mounded into a pie crust and topped with a lattice crust. Then, just before baking, a sweet, thick sugar syrup is poured carefully onto the crust. An hour later, the apples are tender and fragrant and the crust a glistening brown.”

I have made this pie several times now and it always comes out perfect...I do add cinnamon,allspice, and cloves to the apples themselves before putting them in the dish...this is our new must have for the holidays!

This pie is absolutely amazing. Just made two minor changes - used three apple varieties - golden delicious, granny smith and fuji. Also add cinnamon to the apples. Very delicious and came out looking very professional.

Fantastic!! This is by far the best apple pie I have ever had. I followed another member's suggestion to add spices to apples (recipe doesn't mention any cinnamon etc.). I also used a full apple pie crust. I poured the sugar mixture directly over the apples. I think my husband would have eaten the whole pie himself if I had let him. A KEEPER!! 5 stars

This is my very first review on allrecipes, this pie was so good, that I had to add to the already stellar raves. I used 7 small/medium sized Granny Smith apples, added a 1tablespoon of vanilla to the mix (and omitted a tablespoon of water like the many suggestions) and it was ah-mazing! When making the caramel sauce I melted the butter first as per the directions and then added the flour one spoonful at time, stirring in between to really incorporate it- I didn't let it boil, but made sure that all the sugar was dissolved. I tossed the apple slices in lemon juice and then added a little more than half of the sauce to them and gave them a stir before pouring them into the pie crust. I brushed the remaining sauce over the lattice top- just so we didn't miss out on the crust everyone was mentioning. This pie was fantastic! I was a little afraid that it was going to be too sweet, but Grandma Ople sure knew what she was doing! Perfection. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. It will be gracing many tables in the future!
