Carol–Good apple pie is wonderful. Bad apple pie–oh, it is tribulation on a plate. I am glad to know that I am not the only one to advocate partially cooking the apples, and smothering them in their own juices and using as little sugar as possible.

I feel great kinship for your family.

Will–talk about coincidence–my very own pie using this recipe is now in the oven. I am glad that you liked the pie–this year I did add a few dried cranberries along with the golden raisins, and I used the ginger wine, again.

It smells amazing. I just have to say so.

I am glad to have helped bless your family with wonderful pie this year–I will be thinking of y’all tomorrow when we sit down to our apple pie.

Thanks for the wonderful pie recipe! It is the best apple pie I have made yet! I serve apple pie every Thanksgiving. The pie I made from your recipe is now sitting in the middle of our table. We are blessed!

I must say that this (Your) method is truly the best apply pie recipe ever and all in my family use this method. I do NOT care for those that say pile on the sliced apples over the crust and bake – they just taste awful. Here the apples are smothered in their own juices and then baked and I think its just divine !
I will try your recipe of course the next time as my kids just love apple pie this way.
Also u have a wonderful site !

You will like it, Dan. Later on, I further refined the recipe by adding ginger wine, golden raisins and fresh quince.

That pie is a good one, too. I think the name of the post is “Putting History Into a Pie Crust.”
