Crumbly Apple Pie image

The buttery brown sugar topping is a great variation on this classic apple pie! Best of all, the steam from the baking apples isn't held in by a top crust...apples are tender, not mushy and bottom crust isn't soggy!

The filling was a bit too runny. I think I should have cooked it for a bit longer.

The pie was a bit dry. I think I should have added more butter to the crust.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling next time.

I'm not a huge apple pie fan, but this one was really good. The crust was flaky and the filling was sweet and tart.
