This pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just personal preference. Otherwise, it was a great pie.

I used a different type of apple than the recipe called for, and the pie still turned out great. I think you can use any type of apple you like.

I love that this recipe uses fresh apples. It makes the pie taste so much better than when you use store-bought applesauce.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my crust turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I used Granny Smith apples for this pie, and they were the perfect tartness. The pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just personal preference.
