A couple suggestions: If using caramels, put a few in the microwave with a tablespoon of water and heat in 30 second increments, stirring between, until the desired consistency. <\/p>

My family is not a fan of pie crust so we really loved the streusel topping. A few pie tips: cook your crust for 5 minutes before adding the filling so it's not soggy. Put your apples in a microwave dish with a little water and cook for several minutes to soften them a little and drain the water - then add them to your recipe. I always have trouble getting my apples to cook before the rest of the pie is done and this easily solved the problem!","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2020-09-02","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"lvarner"},"reviewBody":"Delicious!

I'd used 4 to 4-1\/2 cups of Granny Smith peeled and sliced apples. I used 1 Tbsp. of bottled lemon juice. For the streusel crumb topping, I'd added 1 tsp. ground cinnamon and I used just 1\/4 cup butter! This way, I got just the amount of crumbs I needed for topping this pie. I DID have prepared caramel ice cream topping which I'd put out at room tempt. I didn't want to overload the pie shell with apple filling and I found that the lesser amount of filling fit into the pie shell nicely! I did use the caramel ice cream topping as directed BOTH for the filling & for the grand finale: the topping on the crumbs when pie finished baking! I'd used a prepared pie shell which I'd thawed 15 minutes at room temperature, then I put shells in individual gallon-sized zip-lock bags to keep in my refrigerator until ready to use! The shells came in handy and I was pleased with the results of the pie! I think it looks lovely-it had a high mound of crumb topping which I drizzled with the balance of the caramel topping after it was baked!Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! delowenstein","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2013-11-24","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"tsherretta"},"reviewBody":"This pie is amazing!
