Was easy to make and was very good. Next time I think I’ll cut cinnamon back to closer to a half a tablespoon
Christopher Rasmussen

This is a fantasic apple pie. I follow the recipe. Except I use 1/4 tsp nutmeg and 1/4 tsp allspice in addition to the cinnamon and cloves. People rave about the apple pie I make . Good luck. The most time consuming part of the process is peeling and slicing the apples.
Teresa Burgess
This is my favorite, go to apple pie recipe! Love it!
Zachary Lee
I followed the recipe exactly except I mixed the ingredients before putting them in the crust. I personally thought the spices were a little overpowering. Next time I’m going to try cutting down the cinnamon by 1/2 a tsp and the cloves by 1/4 of tsp.

I used Gala apples (because that is what I had). Lemon juice on the sliced apples made them tart and stopped them from turning brown. The cloves were a terrific addition to the pie. The clove flavor really brings out the cinnamon taste. I will never make an apple pie again without adding a dash of ground cloves. Everyone loved the pie!
Paula Dixon
No changes and tasted great!! Go for it! I am a newbie at pastries and pies. If I can do it, you can, too! Thanks for the recipe. She’s a keeper,

Nov 4, 2017- This simple pie is the one I watched my mother in law make when my husband took me home for the first time to meet his parents. I’ve made other types of apple pie, but this is my husband’s favorite. I just may as well make it my own and forsake all of those other fancy recipes! It’s my husband I make the pies for, after all. I used the Pillsbury refrigerated rolled up pie crust. I used orchard apples of varying sizes, so I just measured 8 cups of cut up apples and mixed all of the other ingredients in before adding to the crust, as suggested by so many other reviewers. I brushed the top crust with milk and sprinkled with sugar, as seen on a video on this site, and I shielded the crust edges with folded foil to prevent burnt edges. Nov 1, 2019- Still using this recipe for the church festival. This time, instead of coring and slicing the apples, I used a little gadget that I push down onto the apple which cores and slices the apple in one movement. The slices are a little too thick to use as is, so I cut them in half across the middle and have a pie full of apple chunks. Just as good, less work. I bake the pies for one hour-ish.

Very, very easy to make! I used Gala apples since they were what I had on hand. The only change I’d make next time is to cut down very slightly on the flour and add some dots of butter to the apples before putting on the top crust (mine wasn’t as “juicy” as I like it—was very firm and cut beautifully, but I just like mine a little more juicy). Thanks for a great and EASY recipe. ANYONE can make this pie—I also used frozen deep dish crusts—-I allowed one to slightly thaw on the cook top as my oven was preheating, then very very carefully removed it to use as the top crust!

I make this every fall and it’s our family’s favorite. I 1/2 the ingredients and make 2 pies in 2 deep dish crusts. I lattice the top crust. It’s the BEST! We LOVE it!
Kathy Moore
Good flavor but pretty dry. I’ll probably look for a filling that’s a little more saucy next time.
Antonio Lee
YUM! Great recipe, great apple pie.

This pie recipe was not the best but it was okay. I haven’t eaten it yet, but i just made it and i can tell you now I have a few changes i’d like to make. First, there were way too many apples. You only need about six, as the other reviews have said. Second, It would be way better to mix the dry ingredients with the apples THEN put them in. Third, I don’t really understand the whole only putting dry ingredients in it. It need some wet ingredients. So a good idea would be to chop up small pieces of butter, say a stick, and mix that in as well. Finally, there too much dry ingredient ( by the way, by dry ingredient, I mean the flour, sugar, cloves, and cinnamon), though it may just have been because of the fact that I hadn’t mixed it in with the apples beforehand. You can do want you want with that information, but I just saved the rest for cinnamon bread in the morning. Besides all that, it smelled really good when it came out of the oven. Oh, and I did have to cook it a little longer than told. Well, thanks for listening! I hope you find my information useful.

Delicious! I used a store bought pie crust to save time and made a crumble topping. I will definitely make this again.
Daniel Reese
Awesome pie recipe. I made the crust fresh and followed this recipe to the t, simple and delicious. My family loved it. I used raw sugar and also added some small dark raisins. The best pie ever!
Brianna Hernandez
very good. I used 3 large gala apples and 3 large granny smith apples for this pie. I was looking for a recipe that had more of a “sauce” to it than most. I will use this again but next time I will pre bake the crust a bit so it doesn’t get too soggy as it sits.
Natasha Hernandez
Great Pie! Very easy to make too. A helpful hint- when peeling the apples and cutting them, put the cut apples into cold water, add a little bit of lemon juice to keep from turning brown as well as keeping them crisp! I also used fuji apples and chopped walnuts.
Dawn Campbell
This was the first time I ever made apple pie- wanted it for Memorial Day. I thought I had ground cinnamon- only had cinnamon sticks- so I grated an entire stick and was AWESOME 🙂
