APPLE PIE!!! It's such a classic and such a stunner. Just look at that golden, flaky crust with those nicely coated apples. Coated in cinnamon and sugar of course!
Truth be told, for this pie and the last one we didn't roll out the dough. Just kinda flatten it out with our hands and placed it then the bottom of the pie plate and layered it on top of the apples. We have serious issues with dough. We'll get there one of these days. Practice makes perfect and we have not had enough practice. Making pies is pretty new to us.
This was a delicious pie. The filling was honestly the best I've ever had. The right balance of sweetness and cinnamon for sure. I still can't quite get over the olive oil crust. Why would anyone use butter, really?
