Apple pie is a staple to any American home, and as a woman I get a lot of joy from baking food for the people I love. I have always shared my treats with friends and family. Watching baking shows growing up increased my passion for it and my goal is to perfect recipes like this for my future family, so they can say it’s moms homemade apple pie.
This recipe came from a few different sources. The crust is inspired by a Betty Crocker recipe, and the filling I had help from my grandma to make. My friend at work helped me learn how to make good pie crusts and how to slit them so they cook better. I used apples from my grandma’s garden, picked them myself. I peeled and sliced them and added in my grandma’s homemade applesauce as she suggested.
The crust was perfect, it held the filling in so well and was crumbly and had that classic pie flavor. The filling was also so flavorful, the only thing I would change is I would add more apples because the crust held it so well, the pie could be even bigger! If you try this recipe let me know, and suggestions are welcome.
