This was the very first pie I ever made. I didn't even like apple pie until I tried my own. I've taken a recipe and perfected it to my own. It's simple and easy and scrumdiddlyumptious!! It's a winner with everybody who tries it. The warmth from the apples and the sugary crunch from the topping and added with some vanilla ice cream and you've got heaven in your mouth!! Will have pictures very soon!!
