			       My aunt makes this pie every Thanksgiving and Christmas, and I can never wait to come home just to eat it!  I rate it 5 stars for sure!  Total TBO :)

			       Decedent!!  I did use a different recipe for the crust: 1/2 c crisco, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp bkg powder, 1 c. flour, 1/2 tsp vinegar, 3 Tbs ice water. Sift flour, bkg powder, and salt together. Cut in Crisco and add water and vinegar. Makes 2 crusts. But I used the entire recipe for one crust. This is THE best crust ever. So between the two...this was one incredible pie. Thanks for sharing!

			       Wow!  I made this pie for my boyfriend, and he said it's the best he's ever had!  I deviated from the recipe in some ways - I tossed the apples in the sugar mixture to get an even coating, added a little brown sugar for a richer flavor, and (the piece-de-resistance) sprinkled two packets of Quaker raisin/date/walnut oatmeal mix (with extra butter) onto the topping.  Try it: it's awesome!  :)

			       This is the best DAP recipe I've found on the internet. Try using brown sugar in the topping.

			       This was DIVINE and so easy.  I added a 1/2 cup of brown sugar to the pie filling.  I used 1 tsp of cinnamon and 1/4 tsp of nutmeg and that seemed to be the right amount.  I too coated the apples with the sugar mixture.  Just before it went into the oven the first time, I sprinkled a bit more sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon on the apples.  For the crumb topping, I added a 1/4 cup of brown sugar.  It was yummy!!!

			       Very Easy.  This was the first apple pie I have ever made and it was great.  My mother-in-law suggested mounding the apples up so when they cook and cool you don't have a concave pie.  Everyone raved about the pie.

			       I didn't have the right type of apples for this recipe so I made it with half Granny Smith and half Golden Delicious and let me tell you...it was awesome.  I bet it's just going to be that much better the next time I make it!

			       Like some other raters, I added brown sugar to both the pie  
filling. I also stirred the pie filling with the apples prior to putting them in the crust, and added a little water (perhaps a squeeze of lemon juice here?) while mixing. The result was quite delicious, and easy to make. This pie yields lot of bang for only a small time investment.

			       I bake this anytime I have a sack of apples.  It is by far the best apple pie I have ever baked or tasted.

			       I have never attempted to make an apple pie from scratch before but this recipe was so easy and delicious I will never have to look for another recipe again. A huge hit at Thanksgiving this year. I will be making this recipe again and again!!

			       This is a fabulous pie.  I used all brown sugar on the apples and added 2 T. of flour, 1 1/2 t. of cinnamon and 1/2 t. of nutmeg.  I mixed the dry ingredients and then added apples. I used Macintosh which cook up soft and sweet.  For topping I used half light brown and half white sugar as well as added 3/4 t. cinnamon.  To prevent over-browning on the crust I used the Pampered Chef pie crust ring which works beautifully.  The result was magnificent!

			       I made this pie for the first time last year and  
everyone raved about it!  It was not only fun to  
make a pie from scratch, it was a learning  
process into which a lot of love went into.  I am  
making it again this year and my family can't  
wait, thanks Emily!
