I got some pie dough resting the fridge right now and a heaping pile of apples marinating in lemon sugar cinnamon and their own juices getting ready to be baked.

I love apple pie.

Who here makes a good pie from scratch????

I do. I'll admit it. I make a great apple pie. The dough has cinnamon & nutmeg in it, and about 20 minutes before it's done cooking you pour heavy cream into the cuts on the top of the pie...it's fabulous. It's from one of my favorite cookbooks...someday I'll try to make my own recipe for something, but until then, I'll just follow the directions! :)

Oh hell, I dont try and make my own pie from my own recipe. Theres pretty much a decided way to make the best crust and I just follow those rules... Its out of the oven, and its beautiful! I stud the apples with butter, but dont do the cream thing. That sounds interesting.

Do you ever melt cheddar on your apple pie? Mmmmmmm. But I prefer it sans.

I make a killer apple pie and pumpkin pie. I refuse to eat store-bought pie. Just can't do it. I am a baked good snob.

Oh, and the crust absolutely MUST be made from scratch.

I made it with my group in 7th grade home-ec. It was surprisingly good.

Pumpkin. Some other groups made apple and I don't remember those being very pleasant...

I've never made a pie from scratch. But I'll take on all comers in a made from scratch cheescake battle.

mmmm....that sounds good. I'd like to have your pie, bring some to a home game. I'm so mad I missed out on that chili.

gotta get my mind out of the gutter, because that just sounds dirty. ;)

But I'd be happy to make you an apple pie.


Oh, and I still have some leftover chili. Gonna be trash soon. :(

I can barely make a S'more. No way I'm trying a pie.

Making good pie crust is one of the hardest things Ive learned. And Im still just good. Not great by any means. That being said, Give it a try.
