APPLE PIE

I made an apple pie yesterday. It was my first one completely from scratch. I have always shied away from making pie crust. But after watching one of my favorite influencers make his recipe and having an old friends recipe as well, I thought for sure I could do this thing. Truly making an apple pie is an act of love, because it took a lot of time. 

I wish I had a photo to show just how lovely it turned out. But I got a migraine as it was cooling and it was cut and sampled by all those who were visiting before I was up to getting back into the kitchen. 

Everyone loved it!

Apple pie is not my favorite pie, but let me just say, this was the very best Apple Pie I have ever tasted!

APPLE PIE FILLING

David Beards recipe that I altered.

5 Sliced Granny Smith Apples

2 Sliced Golden Apples

1/2 Granulated Sugar

1/4 Brown Sugar

1 1/2 Tbsp Apple Pie Spice

2 Tbsp Flour

2 Tblsp Cornstarch 

1/2 Salt

3Tbsp Melted Butter

I brushed the top crust with an egg wash and sparkled sugar before adding the air vents. I baked at 375 for about 45 minutes. 

Cool completely so the apples will hold firm.
