Illinois Apple Pie image

I adopted this recipe during the Recipezaar abandoned recipe adoption. I made this the next day and it is so delicious! The crust is so easy to work with and has great flavor! If you like your apple juices to be a little thicker, add a tablespoon of flour to the mixture. This is so delicious... perfect for first time pie makers or expert pros! Enjoy!

This apple pie was okay. The crust was good, but the filling was a little too sweet for my taste.

I was disappointed with this apple pie. The crust was tough and the filling was bland. I think I'll stick to my old apple pie recipe.

This apple pie was so easy to make and it turned out so delicious! I used a store-bought crust to save time, but the filling was homemade and it was so worth it.
