“I made this for Thanksgiving. I fell down and already had a broke foot so I had to skip the pie crust and use store bought but I did the rest just as she said. Temp also exactly as stated. I wanted to add a picture. I made leaves and apples out of extra dough ” — a cook, 5.0★
“I made my first ever apple pie. Looks beautiful and it tastes so good! But there is so much liquid inside when I cut into it. Not sure the 3 tbsp of corn starch was enough to make the filling thick. ?? I’d attempt it again as I have so many apples at the momen” — a cook, 4.0★
