Just wanted to add my \"two cents worth\" to say that when I make my apple pies, I use Tapioca (out of the box) instead of flour to thicken and also add extra cinnamon. I always use Granny Smith apples, too. The Tapioca thickens the filling but adds a really nice, extra flavor. I am almost 70 years old, have been making apple pies for many years from my grandmother and mother's recipe and don't think it matters what shape the pan is as long as the ingredients are correct and the pie is done. The bigger (the more) the merrier!!","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2016-01-28","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"MerryAyles"},"reviewBody":"I just served this to a class of 20 people and got rave reviews. One guy told me it was the best pie he'd ever eaten, and, quote \"I've eaten a lot of pies\". It might be good to note that he said one of the contributing factors was how thin the apples were. So just be sure to take your time and enjoy what you're doing.These are the adjustments I made:I used a combination of apples, three granny smith, three red delicious and two jonagold.Taking the advice of other reviewers, I added 1\\3 cup of each sugar instead of 1\/4. I threw in a tablespoon of cinnamon and added a few shakes of cloves. My apples were big so I used about half a lemon to coat, and made sure the T of flour were heaping. I used apple cider vinegar instead of white, because white vinegar has a sharp taste, and using apple cider vinegar just seemed obvious to me.I didn't have any shortening on hand, so I substituted coconut oil, which imparted a really nice flavor to the crust. Next time I will either add more water, or 3\/4 C of the oil, since the crust was a little hard to work with and seemed too dry. This made it challenging to roll out but not impossible...to the reviewer complaining about uneven crust, that is purely up to the technique with which you roll out the dough and not the fault of the recipe.Overall it's a great outline, and with a few tweaks makes a fantastic pie. I'm sure it's even better hot, as I had to wait until the next day to cut it, so I'll definitely be trying this again!","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2016-06-28","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"raspberryh"},"reviewBody":"Hi, I actually have a question.

Good idea but I thought the flavor of both the apples and the crust was bland. Definitely not enough sugar and not enough apples.

I was disappointed with the overpowering nutmeg taste, then again the lack of flavor in the crust due to no salt in the recipe. The filling was rather dry and bland except for the flavor of my apples themselves, which was the only redeeming part of this whole dish. This pie reminds me of some my mother would make when she didn't have a clue or else didn't care, because she knew we kids would eat anything anyway.

I just served this to a class of 20 people and got rave reviews. One guy told me it was the best pie he'd ever eaten, and, quote \"I've eaten a lot of pies\". It might be good to note that he said one of the contributing factors was how thin the apples were. So just be sure to take your time and enjoy what you're doing.<\/p>

These are the adjustments I made:<\/p>

I used a combination of apples, three granny smith, three red delicious and two jonagold.<\/p>

Taking the advice of other reviewers, I added 13 cup of each sugar instead of 1\/4. I threw in a tablespoon of cinnamon and added a few shakes of cloves. My apples were big so I used about half a lemon to coat, and made sure the T of flour were heaping. I used apple cider vinegar instead of white, because white vinegar has a sharp taste, and using apple cider vinegar just seemed obvious to me.<\/p>

I didn't have any shortening on hand, so I substituted coconut oil, which imparted a really nice flavor to the crust. Next time I will either add more water, or 3\/4 C of the oil, since the crust was a little hard to work with and seemed too dry. This made it challenging to roll out but not impossible...to the reviewer complaining about uneven crust, that is purely up to the technique with which you roll out the dough and not the fault of the recipe.<\/p>

Overall it's a great outline, and with a few tweaks makes a fantastic pie. I'm sure it's even better hot, as I had to wait until the next day to cut it, so I'll definitely be trying this again!<\/p>","CommentId":12,"DateRated":"01\/28\/2016 17:31","GUID":"6485b408e58f417f8731de0b30ddfebb","MemberId":8721603,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"MerryAyles","SubmittedDate":"01\/28\/2016 17:26"},{"Comment":"

This was just okay. I did cut the recipe in half as there were only four of us. The crust was almost like a cookie, and it was somewhat difficult to get out of the pan.

This pie was not the best use of my hard-to-come-by fall apples from our neighbor's tree. I was disappointed with the overpowering nutmeg taste, then again the lack of flavor in the crust due to no salt in the recipe. The filling was rather dry and bland except for the flavor of my apples themselves, which was the only redeeming part of this whole dish. This pie reminds me of some my mother would make when she didn't have a clue or else didn't care, because she knew we kids would eat anything anyway.

Wish I'd thought of this! I almost never bake pies or order them in restaurants because the bottom crust is so disappointingly soggy.

Have never written a review before, but love to read the comments on recipes I want to try. Just wanted to add my "two cents worth" to say that when I make my apple pies, I use Tapioca (out of the box) instead of flour to thicken and also add extra cinnamon. I always use Granny Smith apples, too. The Tapioca thickens the filling but adds a really nice, extra flavor. I am almost 70 years old, have been making apple pies for many years from my grandmother and mother's recipe and don't think it matters what shape the pan is as long as the ingredients are correct and the pie is done.

I tried this recipe tonight and it was Amazing! I was unsure about the crust only because I like the crumble tops more then pastry, because some are just way too dry for my liking. This crust wasn't dry and it complimented well with the apple mixture.

I was won over once the boyfriend came home with more apples from his parents house to make another one for the "man" time tonight at his friends. lol<\/p>","CommentId":39,"DateRated":"","GUID":"a789d6bdc1ad4c129cba056729b866bc","MemberId":7488429,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"vwjenny24","SubmittedDate":"11\/16\/2013 22:03"},{"Comment":"

I made this just the way it reads. It's very good and I love the no bottom crust that can go soggy after one day.

Great recipe. Love the flavor and only having the top crust reduces the calories too.

I always read reviews to see if the recipe worked out well as written, and if it was tasty. None of the reviews had baked it & were able to give a review. I don't have a lote of time for reading these, so would really like to see our cooks make it first - then express your opinion.<\/p>","CommentId":42,"DateRated":"11\/21\/2011 22:33","GUID":"94432cd7cdc4499ab9e51e3870c12462","MemberId":4863988,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"Miss Arlene","SubmittedDate":"11\/21\/2011 22:33"},{"Comment":"

To moe731 - try Granny Smith apples (green apples), they are tart and not too juicy so they hold up well in baked goods. Also, Gala, Braeburn and Fuji apples work well in pies or crisps. MacIntosh and Red\/Golden Delicious apples have high water content and tend to become too soft and\/or mushy when baked. This deep dish apple recipe sounds like a good basic apple pie, the only difference is that it is baked in a 9x13" pan instead of a pie pan. Doing it this way is good if you have a large number of guests.<\/p>","CommentId":44,"DateRated":"11\/20\/2011 21:00","GUID":"BB4BD99A17754E16A2280EFDEC4ADC67","MemberId":1254542,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"mrsgreinke","SubmittedDate":"11\/20\/2011 21:00"},{"Comment":"

This recipe sounds similar to the apple pie recipe I make from my tried and true Betty Crocker cookbook. It's a great recipe and I always get compliments. I don't think you need complicated recipes for food to be good. The times I'm most asked for recipes are usually my simplest recipes. I don't think that makes you a beginner cook!

Thank you for getting me to "think outside the box". I never thought of baking a pie other than in the traditional round pan.

Linda Katherine, thank you for this recipe, I haven't made it yet but I'm looking forward to it. I love that it's in a 13x9 pan, that will be especially good for serving a crowd.
