The crust was a little too dry for my liking. I would add an extra tablespoon of butter next time.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar by half next time.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seeds instead. The pie still turned out great!

I made a few changes to the recipe, but it still turned out great! I used a gluten-free flour blend for the crust and I added some chocolate chips to the filling.
