The other week I made my first apple pie. Not trying to brag or anything, but Brett said it was the best apple pie he had ever had (and apple pie is one of his two favorite desserts). I found the recipe on Country Living; no wonder it was so good. The crust had 200g of butter (a little over 3/4 c)! The crust was what made the pie, in my opinion. Brett thought it was the apples, though. I was actually more excited that I found a good crust than the pie because I hadn't been able to find one that was good up until then. They were ok, but nothing special. They were always too dry and not flaky. This one almost tastes like a bought crust. Yeah for good recipes!
Yummy! Way to go! Looking forward to this new specialty on a Thursday night dinner. :-)
ReplyDeleteHey Brett,
ReplyDeleteApple pie is Ben's favorite too. I agree Sheri, the crust makes the pie.
