This is my favorite pie and it is the most requested pie that I make for Thanksgiving. I think this recipe came from BHG or Family magazine.

I'm not a big fan of apples, but I loved this pie! The filling was so flavorful and the crust was perfectly flaky.

The only thing I would change is to add a little more sugar to the filling. Other than that, this recipe is perfect.
