Mary Katherine, I use an apple peeler, corer, and slicer which makes it so much easier. I also use 2-3 different type of apples. I have a wonderful pie crust recipe that I've used for years. Your recipe is a lot like mine. I use two teaspoons of cinnamon too. Most recipes I've seen don't use that much. My fa.ily and I love cinnamon. I enjoy your videos.
I have a fair amount of frozen apple slices…would u do a video on how ow to use them in this recipe enjoy your videos very much…and u have such a beautiful pleasant personality
Apple pie and vanilla ice cream make sure you eat your meal first because if pie and ice cream comes first the meal will go into refrigerator for later !!!!!!!!!😅
I love to cook but haven't been great at baking. But I've been trying to improve (thanks to some of your videos! And I love watching the Joy of Baking YT channel!)
I just wondered why the different temps; high early, then lower temp for longer?
Thanks you for another winner!
I was given a manually operated apple peeler that also cores, with the arthritis, the peeler works better for me.
❤
Beautiful pie and I’m sure it’s delicious!
OOH OOH I like apple pie better than a cake. A cake reminds me that I'm getting older.
Can you make a Dutch apple crumb pie
The pie in your thumbnail is not the same pie as you made in the video. The inside texture doesn’t look like that. I wish YouTubers wouldn’t gaslight with their clickbait thumbnails.
OK – I am going to have to be a big girl now and conquer my fear of making an apple pie!! Looks delicious!!
I like the idea of hand sprinkling the cinnamon instead of sprinkling from the jar. When I have done that it comes out in clumps
I put the pie on a baking sheet incase syrup oozes out onto the bottom of the hot oven
Hi Mary Katherine! I love all desserts homemade from scratch, but I have yet to make a homemade apple pie!? Thank you for making this look easy…GOD BLESS, 🙏 Tracie ❤
I know your viewers will love this. It is very close to our favorite apple pie recipe I have been making since 1976. But next time I will try chilling it first and also do the temperature reduction. You always teach me some new little improvement. Thanks Mary Katherine!
My Dad told a slice of cheese with apple pie is a American tradition
An egg wash and sprinkle of raw sugar makes a beautiful pie. Excellent tip to let the pie thoroughly cool to allow the filling to thicken. I love the "rustic look" of the folded crust, too!
Made your Apple pie and my first successful pie crust❤ I was so excited🤗 Came out delicious. My husband loved it❤
That looks delicious! Can't wait to try that recipe!
I’M MAKING THAT! My mouth won’t stop watering! 😃😃😃😃😃😃
Mary Katherine, I just Love watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your delicious recipes. I made your sweet potato casserole for Thanksgiving and everyone just Loved it. You are a lifesaver because I had to make that at the last minute and just so happened to find your video. I have been watching you ever since. I want to make your apple pie. Looks Delicious 😋. Thank you again❤
Omgosh how delicious is that…TFS❤patsy
Thank you, Mary Katherine. I waited for this 2nd part to the pastry! I have the honey crisp, tomorrow is Saturday…yes ma'am, I am making this! We always top Apple Pie with Cheddar Cheese and Ice Cream when sliced. So yummy! ❤ 🍏
The apple pielooks delicious and well prepared, thanks for sharing your recipe with details so we can follow along. Happy cooking!
That pie looks delicious, I notice your Mar you have on top of stove. Do you mine sharing where you purchased that
Thank you.
Peeler is my preference. I am not well practiced at peeling with a knife.
I love how the apples were piled so high that there wasn’t this big hole between the top of the pie crust, it looked so beautiful, I have actually made the pie crust for the Pot Pie and it was so beautiful for the first time ever. So I have some crust in the freezer and it’s coming out for Apple Pie🎉🎉, my family is loving all the good food they have gotten since I started watching you, thank you so much. You are such a joy to watch❤❤❤
I love to watch your videos! You voice is so calming! Thank you for this recipe. I'm definitely going to try it.
I have about 5 really ripe bananas do you have any banana bread recipes? I have learned so much from you, thank you ❤
Apple peeler, slicer, corer for the win! Makes quick work of many apples needed to make a delish pie.
Beautiful pie! The waiting is the hardest part!!😅
Well, Mary Katherine, I goofed up my pie. It all looked good until the end. I believe, personally, I would cut down on the 4 Tbls of butter. Cooked the 15 and then another 50 at the lower temp. Mine was runny and greasy looking because of too much better. It is in the refrigerator hopefully setting up. Will let you know if it helps! I also squirted some Lemon juice on my apple mixture earlier so my apples (granny smith) would not turn brown. I am wondering if that also affected the mixture?
A tip I got in a baking class is to smear a little apricot jam on the bottom of your pie crust before putting in your apples. I’ve had some very astute grandmothers say I make a great apple pie and I think that’s my secret, lol!!
Anyone ever tell you you look exactly like Pricilla from the YT channels Pricilla’s Pots and Pans and her husband’s channel Fathering Autism are you guys related??🥰😀🤪 love your videos btw
