I'm not in love with this apple pie recipe from Good Housekeeping either. Hmmmm. What was wrong with this recipe? Well, first, I can no longer taste the apple. The filling is too lemony and the combo of nutmeg and cinnamon is just weird with apple pie. Not digging. The apples cooked great, though, but shrank so much that there is a lot of air between the filling and the upper crust. No bueno, again. So, I'm going commando a.k.a. I'm going without a recipe and making up my own. I'm going to follow the advice of my husband and precook the apples before baking that way I can get the taste and texture perfect, chill, and then put it in the oven for about 30-35 minutes to heat and bake the crust. I'm going to do sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon. Alas, I'm going to put this off, though, as next week is Thanksgiving, and I have a feeling I'm gonna be baking a shload of pies, and not apple pies. Sorry Tiffany.
Brevity of post and lack of humor due to child waking up from nap. Cheers!
