WALNUT STREUSEL APPLE PIE
This is adapted from a recipe I tried last Thanksgiving AND Christmas from the Food Network; I used a store-bought crust and tripled the streusel (my favorite part ;).... It is a very easy, no-fuss pie; very pretty with it's browned nut topping and you don't have to worry about crimping or venting or any other crust issues! My family really loved it and I hope yours does too.

APPLE WALNUT PIE
My family is fond of any treat featuring apples, but this pie is the one they like best. Unlike some fruit pies, this crust doesn't become soggy, thanks to the addition of ground walnuts. Everyone agrees the flavor of nuts pairs well with apples in this fall favorite. -Evonne Wurmnest, Normal, Illinois
