Reviews
I followed the recipe using Granny Smith apples and everyone loved it! I’m glad it makes 2 pies because the first one didn’t last very long. I will be making this apple pie again!
I made more of the crumb topping, but I followed the rest of the recipe. The pies came out great!
My pies turned out very dry even though I used a mixture of apples. The middle of the pies were cooked but the top wasn’t. Not sure what I need to make it not so dry. I will try again because I love the streusel topping.
Oh, man – this is soooooooooo good! Love the sweet crunch of pecans and brown sugar on top of Granny Smith tartness. YUM a thousand times over! I’m using this Apple pie recipe from now on!!
This was a huge hit! Plates were licked clean! Only change I made was using the whole streusel mix for one pie opposed to splitting it for two pies. The topping is the best part, so there was no such thing as having too much!
It turned out ok. I used kind of old gala apples and they didn’t juice up at all so the pie was kind of dry. Would hopefully be better with better apples?
Quick easy and delicious! Tip add a little cinnamon sugar to the apples mixture before covering with topping!
Pie was delicious! I cut back on the recipe and made one deep dish pie.. I incorporated cinnamon in both the filling and the topping. I did not cut back on the topping, so it had a nice amount of topping. I did increase the flour in the pie filling by one extra tablespoon of flour. All my family enjoyed it. Will make it again.
Turned out absolutely beautiful! Will definitely be making this one again!
Tried this with a savoury pie crust and it was wonderful. Added more spices (cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom) and added raisins as suggested in another comment to add more kick. Next time however I will reduce the amount of sugar in filling.
Yum yum! Apple pie is my favorite dessert so I’m always on the hunt for a good apple pie recipe. I only made one pie but used the full amount of streusel for one pie. Since my apples were very juicy I used 3 tablespoons of flour and apple pie spice for the cinnamon since I had it. I also added a dash of salt to the apples and to the topping since salt brings out flavors. Mine had to bake about 10 minutes longer since I had a deep dish pie. Very delicious and I plan to make again.
This recipe was amazing! I sized this down to making 1 pie and it was perfect. The crunch of the streusel was excellent. I made the streusel without the pecans but only added them after I mixed the butter, brown sugar and flour together, then stored in the fridge until I finished the other steps. Then after it baked, I drizzled caramel sauce over the top and everyone was happy happy. TY I will totally make again. Best way to eat an apple pie!
Great recipe!!! Next time I will make a little extra streusel topping to make it a little sweeter and so it will have a little extra crunch!!!!
This recipe is simply wonderful!!! Have used this same recipe before from this site, and my husband has been driving me insane. I do adjust the topping recipe automatically to make twice as much so both pies are fully covered. but that is absolutely no problem. thank you for sharing this recipe. sure to be a favorite at church and family gatherings.
Loved the streusel topping!!! One of the best apple pies I have ever tasted!!!
This was very easy to make. I read the reviews and used a bit extra of flour and it set up very well. I also substituted walnuts for pecans. The entire family loved it and I will definately make it again!!
Best apple I have ever cooked or eaten! Made a deep dish with 1 1/2 times recipe and added cinnamon to apples and topping. Pecans are a wonderful touch. It is much easier to pinch topping with fingers versus using a pastry blender.
This is easy to make and very tasty! The only thing I did different the 2nd time I made it was to add a top crust and put the struesel over the top instead of the apples themselves.
I love when I need to use up things and it still turns out great! This recipie is so easy to modify. I only wanted to make 1 pie but forgot to less’n the streusel portion (that’s what happends when I try to multi task). I used 3 differnt types of apples and 1 pear. A graham cracker crust and since I had lots so the streusel I put half the filling in, a layer of streusel, and the rest of the apple mixture and then topped with the remaining streusel. YUMMY! The pie was gone before I had a chance for 2nds!
This is soo yummy! I only wanted to make one pie, so I used 4 apples (Granny!), but kept the amounts of all the other ingredients the same. I think the recipe for the topping is the perfect amount for one pie, and it was delicious! I did add some ground cinnamon to the topping too. Overall, amazing 🙂
Yummy,no hard
