I've been having fun with the apples we harvested last week. I decided to make a pie. I always use Pillsbury crusts, but I really wanted to try making my own this time. I used a Martha Stewart recipe and it turned out perfectly - and the taste was so much better than what I get from the premade crusts. I struggle with apple pies. They usually don't have enough flavor. I followed my mom's suggestion to add some ginger to the pie filling. And I think the apples from the orchard were just the right kind for pie making because they baked up beautifully with great sweet-tart flavor and perfect texture. This was such a great pie! I was so proud of it. Especially since I picked the fruit and made the crust myself. What a treat.
