CINNAMON CRUMBLE-TOP APPLE PIE
This is a high apple pie with a thick layer of delicious topping, this pie is just wonderful! I have even added in some cranberries with the apples, if you are adding in cranberries, then reduce the apples slightly. Use only Granny Smith apples for this pie, and other kind will become mushy when baked.

APPLE CINNAMON NUT CRUMBLE SLAB PIE
I used my favorite butter crust to create this pie. It has a yummy cinnamon spice flavor. The combination of spice with the Golden Delicious apples is so outstanding! I also topped it off with a cinnamon walnut crumble that adds an extra flavor level. It kind of reminds me of an apple crisp served in a pie shell. You will love...
